Our class has a lot of conversation. I teach in Japanese, but only use English, translation if you are not sure. The conversation theme can be prepared by me, but you can decide!

Learning Japanese with Kiki-sensei has been an incredible experience. From our very first lesson, I felt at ease with her patient, encouraging approach. She has this wonderful ability to understand when I'm searching for words, always guiding me gently and helping me find the right expressions without making me feel pressured or rushed.
What truly stands out is her vibrant, positive energy. Kiki-sensei is always smiling and welcoming, which brings a lightheartedness to each session. She has a friendly and easygoing vibe :)
One of the aspects I appreciate most is how she keeps our conversations flowing. She has a knack for asking thoughtful questions that invite me to speak more, helping me grow my confidence in speaking Japanese. It feels like a genuine conversation between friends, making the learning process natural. ❤️

I booked a trial lesson to help me understand how my learning is going. Was pleasantly surprised with how easy to talk to and encouraging she was! Would book a lesson in the future if I need help with learning the language more
