"Effective Japanese Tutor"
- Robert, Tarzana, CA on 3/29/17i have worked with Noritaka Sensei on line for several weeks. I lived in Japan 40 years ago and have decided to review my Japanese to make my first trip back since college more fun and meaningful. Sensei has worked with me 2-3 times per week and the sessions are fun and I am making much faster progress than I had hoped. Noritaka Sensei effectively uses a textbook at times and at other times just focuses on more spontaneous conversation. I could not be more pleased and look forward to working with Noritaka Sensei going forward.
