Asami is an excellent and thoughtful conversation partner and instructor for advanced students. She is very open to working with me on my language learning needs (which can often be fluid). She is also open to exploring a wide range of topics (from the serious to the silly) in a way that feels like we're both learning, while also providing me with important tips/corrections/suggestions along the way. I can't recommend her enough!

毎週の週末、Asami先生と一緒に楽しく過ごされて本当によかったです。生活の中で日本語のことをいろいろと勉強になり、とても助かりました。ありがとうございます。

This was my first tutoring session for another language, and I did not know what to expect. I appreciated her patience with me and I felt very supported in the lesson. To be able to attempt to speak Japanese with someone after only learning through apps was invaluable, and I definitely will be learning with her again. Arigato Gozaimasu!

Asami is an amazing teacher! She is careful to speak very slowly, in a rate that is just perfect for my current Japanese level. She is incredibly patient in understanding what I'm trying to say and offering more natural phrasings when I get it wrong. In addition, she has many interesting stories and conversation topics. This was my 4th lesson with her (I think), and I feel my Japanese is greatly improving thanks to her.

I have studied Japanese off and on for many years but could not progress to a comfortable level of communication because I simply didn't use it enough in between lessons. I am definitely enjoying and benefiting from the weekly lessons with Asami Sensei. She can give you as much or as little as you like or need. Even if all you do is talk every week, it is super helpful. I am so happy I changed my learning route, and I highly recommend her as a teacher.
