Nakahara-san is very friendly and understanding, our free-form conversations are always fun, interesting and informative with many new words added to my vocabulary. He's very fun to converse with!

I am super happy with the lessons I have with Ryo-san. Very friendly teacher who is always smiling, willing to help and adapt lessons to suit your needs. He covers all range of topics that I personally looked for - daily conversation practice, grammar, recall and sentence structuring, and on top of that JLPT preparations. I would highly recommend Ryo-san to anyone looking to be serious with improving their Japanese skills. He is multilingual, fluent in English and has experience with living abroad, hence I think it's a very good match for international students looking for a good match in terms of personality, approach, and attitude. 100% 5-star from me!
