Por estar estudando japonês sozinho há algum tempo, meu nível de conversação é muito baixo. Mesmo assim, eu me senti extremamente relaxado na minha primeira aula com Taka-san. Apesar de não ter confiança e vocabulário suficientes para construir frases bem formuladas, ela era capaz de entender o que eu queria dizer e rapidamente prover sugestões/traduções. Estou ansioso para a nossa próxima aula!

Taka san is a very calm, patient, well-prepared and charismatic teacher. As a beginner who solo studied by books and Anki app, my focus has been on conversation practice to build phrases and improve my listening comprehension. And Taka san always prepares interesting topics and material for our lessons, showing examples and also explaining about Japanese culture. It's been an adorable and fun journey.

Taka always takes extra time to give a review of topics and good feedback. The lesson is mostly fun but has a lot of great materials to review as well. She seems quiet at first but is a very careful listener. I recommend Taka as a teacher for anyone who wants to express themselves better in Japanese.
