Akemi先生 is a wonderful teacher. She’s methodical, encourages conversations and explains things clearly. Akemi先生 also gives you additional cultural context / tips on new vocabulary etc. Her classes are always a delight, highly recommend!

あけみさんは素晴らしくて親切な先生です. いつもレッスンは楽しくて面白いです.
I am learning so much with Akemi-san! I used to think I will never get past the beginning stages of learning Japanese, but Akemi-san's teaching style, patience, and thoughtfulness in every lesson I've had with her has given me motivation to continue doing my best!

I had a few lessons with Akemi and enjoyed them a lot. She encourages me to speak often and has adapted her lessons to my preferences (mix of free conversation + grammar). Can wholeheartedly recommend her!

She is just the best at explaining and being patient with you. She doesn’t get upset nor frustrated at you when you can’t recall information. Please feel free to book her~
