Keisuke

With every class I enjoy this wonderful teacher a little more. He has helped me through learning to decompose Kanji combinations, and is now helping me review the grammar I learned 20 years ago in grad school. My comfort with Japanese is increasing at an astonishing rate, for which I award all the credit to him. If you want a sensei to help you increase your facility in Japanese, it would be almost impossible to do better. I am thrilled with is help, and I am encouraging my son to move to this teacher and start his lessons again.

ありがとうございました。楽しかったです。 (咳が多くて 申し訳ありません。) I have been taking lessons from Keisuke-sensei for more than a year roughly and it has been one of the best decisions for my japanese learning journey. I have taken many lessons with different teachers (japanese but other fields as well) and once in a while, you meet a special teacher. Keisuke-san is this teacher : not only he is very dedicated but also a very nice human being. What I like the most is that we can talk about almost anything (within my language abilities) and it's always a fun experience. He also makes sure to use very clear japanese so his voice is very nice to listen to and soothing (I wish he had his own podcast !) I'm very glad to have met Keisuke-san and will continue taking lessons from him. I would recommend him to anyone willing to get better at speaking and understanding japanese (and japanese culture).

今日はありがとうございます：）楽しかったです。

When I came to italki, I had studied Japanese (both in a classroom and on my own), but it had been a long time since I had practiced speaking Japanese. I had a trip to Japan coming up and I was looking for a tutor with similar interests that I could just practice casually speaking with and could help me feel less nervous about speaking Japanese. Keisuke-sensei is exactly what I was looking for. I have fun talking with him about food, games, anime, and movies and our time passes by quickly. And he helps whenever I have trouble. After our lessons, in the feedback, he gives a list of words/phrases that I struggled with, so I can study them for next time. It's a big help. I definitely recommend him!

いつもありがとうございます！ 午後の時間に先生に会えて嬉しかったです。やっぱり自宅だと落ち着きますね。 久しぶりのレッスンで、先生が話をよく聞いてくれて、自然に話を引き出してくれるだけでなく、センスもいいなと改めて思いました。 次の一週間も楽しく過ごせるように、次回のトピックをいっしょに考えてみませんか？ またよろしくお願いします！

A great lesson even though I was a bit rusty because I hadn't spoken Japanese for a while.
