Juliana J.

42 Japanese lessons

I really wanted my continuing studies to be with someone who could give me insight into the proper phrases and most commonly used translations. Ayako sensei has provided those things and more. I have been with Ayako sensei for over a year and have seen an incredible improvement in my Japanese. She is patient and takes time to fully answer my questions and makes sure that I understand her answers.
Delia W.

41 Japanese lessons

Shinsuke sensei has been tutoring me for almost three months now, and it has been one of the most valuable investments I've made into my Japanese. Sensei is professional, patient and seems extremely dedicated to his teaching. 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.
Anne M.

57 Japanese lessons

Hanna is a very knowledgeable and patient tutor. She is well prepared for our lessons and has good advice on how to study and practice. Every week before we start the lesson in the Genki series we have an ad lib conversation using the grammar and vocabulary that I had previously learned. Then we continue with the textbook. My Japanese has really improved and I looking forward to learning more from Hanna.
