Chika is a great teacher and I really enjoy speaking to her in speaking lessons with her.
She’s great at helping me take the parts of the sentence I’m trying to say and helping me to put them together to make a good sentence using grammar I already understand.
The document she provides in each lesson is also really helpful for my vocabulary review and understanding where I made mistake and how I can keep improving!

A great conversation lesson! Chika sensei is very patient and can easily adjust the difficulty and flowing of the conversation according to my level. I learned a lot just from one lesson!
I will definitely book more lessons with her.

I always enjoy my lessons with Chika san. My primary goal with Japanese is conversational ability, and she has a great ability to adapt her speaking to my level and keep the conversation going. I'm sure I will be more prepared for my next trip to Japan because of our lessons.

I always enjoy Chika Sensei’s lessons. She always efficient guides me to express my thoughts in Japanese even when I’m not sure of the right vocabulary or grammar.
Because of this I’m always able to have interesting discussions with her, even though I’m doing it in a second language.
She is very attentive and often refers back to our conversations from previous lessons, leading to lessons feeling very natural. I really enjoy practicing speaking with her!
