What is HONTOMO?
A platform you can do international exchanges in Japanese.
~Japanese teachers will connect the world in Japanese~
There are 4 million Japanese learners across the world.
You might image foreign languages when you hear the words international exchange, but you can interact in Japanese with many people.
Japanese teachers teach Japanese without using foreign languages even for students who cannot understand any Japanese.
That is why we thought if the main language is Japanese, many people can feel much closer to do international exchange and so we launched "HONTOMO."
Because many Japanese teachers who are professionally trained for international exchanges in Japanese are registered, people who want to interact in Japanese will gather.
For someone who likes international exchange, or someone who is thinking about starting an international exchange. Enjoy international exchange in Japanese.
