Why now

Japan’s rules are changing — Japanese requirements are getting stricter

For technical interns and specified-skilled workers, Japan’s requirements for Japanese ability are tightening. People who prepare their Japanese seriously and early will have a clear advantage when applying for jobs and while living in Japan.

QPID helps you study regularly with a teacher who explains in your own language, so you understand faster and feel more confident.

For learners

Learn Japanese online, anytime and anywhere

Study with a teacher who explains in a language you understand, so you progress far faster than in an all-Japanese class. Choose private 1-on-1 lessons, or join a group class (up to 5 people) at a lower price.

  • All you need is a phone or a laptop — no extra app to install
  • Teachers can be native Japanese, returnees, or seniors already in Japan
  • Try a lesson and meet the community for free during the trial period

Teach your own language — earn money from Japan

You don’t need a qualification. Even if your Japanese is still basic (beginner level, Lv1–Lv2), you can start teaching after a short interview. Work hard, level up, and open group classes — a high income is genuinely within reach.

  • A 10–15 minute interview with QPID to confirm your conversation ability
  • Group classes make your hourly earnings far higher than 1-on-1
  • Get paid in USDC/JPYC, send it home almost instantly, with near-zero fees

Frequently asked questions

Things you might be wondering

What is QPID?
QPID is an online platform for learning and teaching languages, connecting people who want to work in Japan with teachers who speak the same language. You can learn Japanese, or become a teacher of your own language and get paid.
Can I learn Japanese online here?
Yes. You learn through video calls with a teacher who explains in your language, either 1-on-1 or in a group class. All you need is a phone or a laptop.
What level of Japanese do I need to start learning?
No level at all. You can start from zero, because the teacher explains in a language you understand.
How much does it cost? Are group classes cheaper?
You pay with QP points on the site. Group classes (up to 5 people) are usually cheaper per person than 1-on-1, and you get to study with friends.
My Japanese is still weak — can I be a teacher?
Yes. Even if your Japanese is still basic (Lv1–Lv2), you can start after a short interview. What matters is that you speak your own language and have the motivation to teach.
How much can I earn as a teacher?
Teachers receive 80% of the lesson fee. As you level up and open group classes, your hourly earnings can be several times higher than 1-on-1.
How do I become a teacher?
You sign up, then take a 10–15 minute video interview with QPID to confirm your communication ability. People with a teaching qualification can start at a higher level.
How do I get paid?
Teachers abroad are paid in USDC, and teachers in Japan in JPYC. The money arrives almost instantly with near-zero fees, and can be exchanged into local currency to send to family.
Which languages does QPID support?
QPID supports a multilingual interface and many “language taught × language of explanation” pairs, with a focus on Japanese and Southeast Asian languages.
Where do lessons take place?
Lessons take place by video right in your browser (Jitsi); you don’t need to install any extra app.
How do the changes to Japan’s language rules affect me?
Requirements for Japanese ability are getting stricter. Studying regularly from now helps you meet them and improves your chances of getting to Japan and staying there.
I’m in my home country (or already in Japan) — can I use it?
Yes. QPID is online, so you can learn and teach from anywhere, whether you’re in your home country or living in Japan.
Is QPID safe?
Yes. QPID is not a dating app. The platform has clear safety rules, limits the exchange of private contact details, and takes firm action on violations to protect users.
Can I invite friends to earn rewards?
Yes. You have your own referral link. When someone you invite joins, you can get extra membership days; a teacher who invites another teacher can earn a bonus in JPYC.
How do I start? Is sign-up free?
Sign-up is completely free and includes a 20-day membership trial. You only pay when you buy QP points to study or take a membership plan.
