1. What kind of PC do I need?
We recommend your PC has Operation
Systems of Windows 2000/XP, or Mac OS X, but it also depends
which Messenger application you would like to use. The best way to
approach is to visit the Web sites of Yahoo, MSN and Skype and check
the latest information about the PC you have.
All
Live-Japanese.com instructors have three messenger applications, which
are Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger and Skype. You can select one
of the applications which you think most suitable for you.
And instructors will use your preferred application when
you have sessions with them.
4. How much are the messenger
application?
They are all free of charge and you can download from the below links:
5. What web cam and
headset do I need?
If your computer has a built-in speaker and microphone, you do not need
a headset.
If not, you would require a headset to speak to and to listen to your
instructors.
In addition, a web cam, although it is optional, would enable you to
exchange your images with your instructors. There is no specific
requirement for a headset and a web cam.
6. Where can I get the
required equipment?
Any electronic and computer shops will have equipment's you would
require. However, you would have difficulty finding one in the vicinity
of your area if you have recently came over to Japan. Use
Amazon.co.jp as they display goods in English as well.
