I always enjoy my lessons with Shoya! He's super easy to talk to and he's great at keeping the conversation flowing. Our conversations are always fun and interesting. He's able to explain things very well and give examples when I need help. He's also very encouraging and gives good advice. I definitely feel more confident in my speaking after our lessons. Highly recommend!

Shouya is always amazing, and he's such a high quality teacher! Every lesson he's very patient, and he always enjoys speaking about a variety of topics. Even if I forget a word a few times, he never minds and helps me practice with it and use it. Highly recommended!

I have been taking lesson with Shoya for more than 1 year. Originally, I wanted to find someone who could help me improve my Japanese conversational ability, plus go beyond casual topics, and be able to talk about more higher-level topics that any adult with a university degree should be able to discuss at a non-discern level. Through conversation with Shoya, he has helped me gain confidence in my own conversational ability, as well as be able to hold a conversation with a native speaker. Though I know that I still have a long way to go, but I can't help but thanks Shoya enough for his patience to sit through listening to my sometimes incomprehensible Japanese, but as well as the diligence to keep me on my toes with new words, vocabularies, and phrases that are highly useful. I highly recommend Shoya to any Japanese language learners who wishes to improve on their conversational ability with a native speaker.

日曜日のレッスンはいろいろ面白いトピックについて話しました。 世界の政治について話したとき、ちょっと大変だけど、それでは思ったより理解できました 自分にチャレンジできるために、こういうトッピクを話し続けたいです まだ勉強することがおいいですね(笑) 次のレッスンを楽しみにしています!またね!ありがとうございます! We talked about many different interesting topics on Sunday. When we talked about world politis, it was a little challenging, but I understood more than I thought from that. I want to keep talking about topics like this so I can challenge myself. I still have a lot to learn (haha). Im looking forward to the next lesson! See you then! Thank you!

昨日のレッスンからたくさん学びました! 今も日本語で遅く話すとまだ感じます。このレッスンは毎日日本語を話すのが足りないを気づかせました。 これから、日本語で声に出して、録音でって、話すつもりです 将来に日本語でもっと自信を持って将弥と一緒に話せたらいいです 本当に奨励をありがたいです 今週が楽しそうだといいです!また日曜日! I learnt a lot from yesterdays lesson. I feel like I speak Japanese slowly, even now. This lesson made me realise that I don't speak Japanese enough everday. To practise, I plan to speak Japanese out loud or in audio recordings from now on. Hopefully I will have more confidence to be able to speak Japanese with you in the near future. I really appreciate all your encouragement. I hope this week is fun for you! See you next Sunday!
