Ayaka-san’s lessons are always patient, clear, and encouraging, and she makes the process feel enjoyable instead of stressful. Thanks to her, I feel more confident and excited about using Japanese during my trips!

At the beginning of the lesson, I clearly had trouble with conjugation and te form, but at the end of the lesson, I was able to conjugate so much better and make sentences from my own thoughts! Amazing what an awesome teacher can do!

I really enjoy taking lessons from Ayaka-san.
She has made me feel prepared for my trip to Japan through her travel lessons and often contains useful material which I cannot easily find online.
She is very well-prepared before our lessons and provides very helpful feedback after lessons.

It is a pleasure learning Japanese with Ayaka-sensei, and I can honestly say she’s one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. Her lessons are always well-structured, engaging, and tailored to my level and goals. She creates a very supportive and encouraging environment where I feel comfortable making mistakes and asking questions.
