Akane Sensei

Akane-sensei has been teaching my son Japanese for several months now, and he looks forward to lessons! She is a friendly, encouraging, engaging teacher and he even loves doing her homework. Thanks to Akane-sensei, my son is now teaching me Japanese. She definitely makes learning Japanese fun! ありがとうございますあかね先生！

I am lucky to have found Akane-sensei to teach my son a month ago. She is a genuine professional teacher with a talent for imparting and nurturing Japanese language skills, and her lessons are an enjoyable and valuable part of his education. He speaks in Japanese throughout her lessons, and he has made noticeable progress already.

My son loves having lessons with Akane, I believe it is genuinely one of the highlights of his week. He looks forward to his Japanese lesson all week. Akane is so positive and encouraging and shares so many interesting things with him. She's also very open to feedback and tailoring the lessons to have more or less of a focus on different things like the Japanese characters as you would like. Thank you Akane, you are a wonderful teacher!!

Akane Sensei always seems to have engaging topics for conversation. I'm kinda moving to the next level with my reading too, and Akane Sensei has been very helpful to me :o)

After starting the lesson with Japanese conversation and reviewing the homework, we did some reading. I had a bit of difficulty with it since I don't know a lot of kanji and there was a lot of grammar and vocabulary I haven't learned yet, but Akane Sensei was very kind, patient, and helpful to me throughout the process. At the end of the lesson, I was pleasantly surprised to hear from her that my Japanese level is very high. That was encouraging to me, cause I felt like I was stuck on the basics for a long time, and there's still a lot more I have to learn before I become fluent in the language. Perhaps I'm further along than I thought I was. I'm confident that Akane Sensei will steer me in the right direction too :o)

As always, I love how Akane Sensei takes an interest in her students. Before going over the homework, I was able to converse with her a bit (in Japanese) about this anthropomorphic animal story I am written on Wattpad. I was also surprised to learn that one of my sources of inspiration, Madagascar, is popular in Japan :o)
