John D.

38 lessons

Douglas has really helped my son gain a good understanding of a very difficult subject. He is thorough and patient. I highly recommend him.

Delia W.

41 Japanese lessons

He is always well-prepared for the material to cover in the next lesson and has never missed writing the useful follow-up review afterwards. I look forward to every lesson and the 90 minutes always passes quickly. The lessons themselves are usually a combination of grammar practice, reading dialogues from the textbook, and real-time conversation practice. I feel that the conversation practice has been essential towards developing my confidence in speaking Japanese.

Serge G.

1 Japanese lesson

So I was never disappointed with our conversations. He was always willing to help me with all my questions and was doing extra things (like recording some Japanese texts I was studying). As far as his rate he asks even less than a modest amount which is a huge plus for his students. The only thing I wish could be different is his schedule as it is pretty tight. But it is understandable since he is a college student himself.
