AKI HAPPY

My weekly Happy Conversation lessons with Aki Sensei have become a really important part of my study routine. It’s funny how it works - on any given week I often feel like I’m struggling but I can look back to a few months ago and see how much progress I’ve made. Her infinite patience with my clumsy Japanese is much appreciated, and she always gives me enough time to work out what I want to say. She is clearly a gifted and experienced teacher and I’m really glad I found her on this site!

Today was the first lesson with Aki sensei, it was a great lesson! She prepared cards with different topics, such as: - If you could tell something to all people on the Earth, what it would be? - If you have a chance, would you go to the Mars? - What book made the biggest impression on you? I think its a great way to make lesson, every time we can pick different themes and discuss it. Your Japanese level will be improved much faster if you will speak on different themes everytime, in this way you can broad you vocabulary, and also you can heard what Sensei thinks about that, which is very interesting as we all have totally different backgrounds, and that that we can talk about anything online while studing language its just great. Thank you Aki-sensei, looking forward to the next lesson with you!

あきさんと色々な物を話しました！。次のレッスンを楽しみます！

Aki-Sensei is an excellent teacher. She is attentive to the student and makes the lesson fun and engaging. She also made sure to communicate very well before the day of lesson to get to know a little about my daughter and made the lesson fun for her. Thank you so much! If you book with this teacher, you will not be disappointed! We will book again.

My weekly conversation lesson with Aki Sensei is a great way to stay motivated with my studies! I’ve been pretty focused on studying for the JLPT lately, but it’s really nice to switch from reviewing grammar and reading dull articles to having a fun conversation in Japanese. Aki Sensei always keeps the conversation light and engaging, and she is always very patient and encouraging. Being able to put my studying into practice is also very motivating, and today I felt like all that studying was paying off a little bit 😊

Today’s lesson was a lot of fun as usual! Every week we have a lot of fun topics to discuss, and I really appreciate the effort Aki Sensei makes in making each lesson both fun and challenging. Even though I’ve been studying more than usual recently, it feels like my conversation skills have plateaued for now. However, Aki Sensei is always incredibly patient and supportive so I know that in time this studying will pay off. In the meantime, we’ll continue to have fun conversations each week and I know the results will follow!
