Another brilliant lesson! I really love how she properly teaches and guides you through examples rather than just getting you to read the book and asking "wakarimashita?". Definitely will be continuing lessons for the foreseeable future!

とても話しやすくて優しい先生です！ 私が話したことのメモをとってその内容に応じた質問をたくさんしてくれました。すごくしっかりしている経験のある先生でこれからはまたレッスンを受けてかおり先生の指導で日本語が上達することに間違いがないです。今後もよろしくお願いします🙇🏽‍♀️😊 Kaoru is very approachable and kind! She took notes on everything I said and asked lots of questions based on that. You can tell she's an experienced teacher and there's no mistaking my Japanese will improve with her guidance. I'm looking forward to my next lesson with her 🌸

Really happy with my first lesson with Kaoru, it was clear she knew the material well, super friendly and got me to practise the grammar in structured ways that felt like I was making progress. Super recommended!

I'm 100% sure that lessons with Kaoru-sensei are the main reason I'm now comfortable speaking Japanese. Of course, there is a long road ahead, but I'm very positive about this journey. Lessons with Kaoru-sensei have had a uniquely positive impact compared with any other type of instruction I’ve tried. Before meeting Kaoru‑sensei, I experimented with self‑study, group classes, and company‑provided teachers, but it all felt like banging my head against a wall. I didn’t even have the basics needed for a simple conversation, yet I was under the false impression that I was making progress. Kaoru‑sensei spends a lot of time on each lesson, shaping the material to fit my level and goals. She even drops in jokes or topics we’ve talked about before, which makes every class feel fresh and personal. Her genuine care shows in every little tweak she makes, and I know she’s truly invested in my progress. That’s why I stay excited for every session.

Again, another excellent lesson - I really feel like I am making good progress and feel like I am starting to be able to speak a bit more confidently.

So far only 2 lessons in but so far love the structure of the lessons. Combination of grammar, talking, practical examples. Sensei is very supportive and increases my confidence in speaking.
