It would probably be easier if you just took an actual class. Seems that learning languages online would be more difficult.

The short answer: No.

The long answer: Learning Japanese is a commitment which requires years of dedication. It is impossible to learn Japanese from a Internet-friend on a forum. Impossible. A waste of time.

Get yourself in a dedicated class or, if you are really dedicated, invest in some textbooks.

Well do you have any suggestions on classes?

Why not look into schools in your area to see if Japanese language is offered. If you're in high school or something like that, maybe your school offers it. Maybe if you're older, you can try a college/university.

I'm only in high school and the only languages they teach in my school are Spanish and Cherokee.

Well, when choosing a college or university to attend after you've graduated high school, if you choose to, you should probably look for one that has Japanese as a language choice.

Are there community colleges in your area.

Learning Japanese is WORK. You are either 100% dedicated or wasting your time.

The only way you'll learn from someone online is if you have had prior Japanese language experience and are practicing your social and writing skills with them. No one would be able to bring you to fluency from the ground up like that...
