🌸 Embark on your journey to mastering Japanese! 🌸My lessons & teaching style
・From beginner to advanced, we provide careful support tailored to your level◎
・I provide lessons that are as easy to understand and fun to learn as possible😊
・From my experience learning various languages, I know efficient ways to learn!
・My lessons use the "GENKI" textbook. 📚 The GENKI textbook explains grammar in English, making it easy to understand for beginners. If you don't have a grammar book, I recommend getting the GENKI textbook, so please consider purchasing it. If you already have a different textbook, we can also use that for our lessons.
・I also support planning your trip to Japan and communication on site🏯
・You can ask questions 24 hours a day!My teaching material

We had a fun conversation about all kinds of topics. Ayaka先生 provided detailed lesson notes shortly after the lesson covering vocab and grammar points that arose in the lesson as well as pointers and positive/negative examples for each, which is immensely helpful.

Ayaka was very kind and helpful. She recognized my level and helped me start conversations despite being very new at speaking Japanese. She was encouraging and supportive, and made me feel comfortable working with her. She speaks and understands English very well, so she was able to explain in English if I was stuck. I will definitely continue working with Akaya-san! 有難うございます
