I always have a good lesson with Kimi. We review past material and she introduces new material using examples and asks questions that challenge my abilities. I never fail to learn something about Japanese culture that I didn't know before. In this past lesson she explained a usage of a word, or grammar point, that is fairly new in Japan. It was fascinating. Another example of how languages are not static and change constantly. I highly recommend Kimi to anyone wanting to learn Japanese.

Kimi is the best teacher! She is so personable & always super interesting to talk to about everything and anything. She has taught me so much in the last 2 years and I am finally feeling better about speaking my thoughts as they come into my head and can communicate with other people! I love talking about travelling, family, you tubing and cooking as Kimi is a pro at all of them! Lessons are always tailored to exactly what I am needing that day talking in natural Japanese. I can't recommend her high enough! ^_^

Kimi is great at speaking to your level and slowly building vocabulary as you progress.

My daughter loves lessons with Kimi. Kimi's style of teaching fits her needs. My dughter says she is having fun while learning and she is motivated by her own progress. Thank you, Kimi!

Kimi keeps the conversation going and anticipates what vocabulary is appropriate for the student's desired goals.

Kimi is a great teacher! I've done conversation practice lessons with her, and it really helped me improve my speaking. Kimi gives great feedback and is fun to talk to!
