FAQ Skype is closing down in May 2025. After that what would be a good way of taking my lessons? We will offer our Japanese lessons using alternative video-calling apps. We can use Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, etc. to replace Skype for our lessons. (Microsoft Teams offers many of the same core chat and call features as Skype. By logging in to Teams Free with your Skype account, your chats and contacts will appear in the app) Please contact your teacher or us for details.
