Japanese Lessons - Online (via University of North Florida)

UNF also offers the online Japanese class that was once offered via FCCJ. I took Spanish classes on this site via FCCJ, but UNF offers the Japanese class, as well.

Japanese Lessons - Online (via Florida Community College at Jacksonville)

I have been taking their Speed Spanish courses, so hopefully their Japanese course is just as good. It is an online class website that you can sign up through FCCJ, which is now known as Florida State College at Jacksonville.
