I really enjoy my lessons with Kotona sensei! She is easy to talk to and we have nice conversations before we practice grammar. Her grammar lessons are well organized and motivate me to study the grammar points throughout the week :)

The audio was a little hard to hear sometimes. A better microphone might help.

Kotona’s class is always very organized. She is friendly and easy to talk to, and also very good at explaining points in the text that can be difficult to understand. Time in the class passes very quickly.

I had a great lesson, thank you! I feel like I'm making progress with grammar again which is great, and it's nice that we're able to talk almost only in Japanese during the class
