Natsumi is a truly exceptional teacher. I've taken around 20 lessons with her at this point, and they have been worth every penny. There's the fact that you learn tons of new vocabulary and grammar. But more importantly, Natsumi has the right attitude. She is supportive and easy to talk to — but at the same time, willing and able to push you to try out expressions, structures, and topics you otherwise wouldn't do on your own. TLDR: if you're reading this, you're wasting time. Book a lesson with Natsumi now, and never look back.

Natsumi san is a great conversationalist, who has a good sense of when to explain a word or concept that I'm not familar with. I am learning so much from our classes.

Fantastic as always

なつみ先生 is an excellent teacher! She is very patient, and explains everything in a way that is easy to understand. My speech ability was lagging behind my reading ability, but in just four lessons she's helped me make huge progress. I'm excited to continue our lessons, and I highly recommend Natsumi to anybody looking to elevate their Japanese speaking skills!

I had a great first class with Natsumi! She was very kind and created a relaxed environment for conversation, which was much appreciated as I was feeling nervous before the lesson. Natsumi was friendly, knowledgable, patient, and great at explaining things when I got stuck. I would highly recommend for anyone who wants to improve their Japanese with an encouraging teacher who will make you feel comfortable and supported!
