Shiori Yamaguchi

Thanks for the conversation practice and helping me with my struggles while I'm finally visiting Japan! Thanks to your teachings over the past 2 years (already?!) I have some basic ability to have conversations and meet some cool people. ありがとうございました！

I’ve been learning Japanese with Shiori-sensei for about three years, and she has played a crucial role in my language journey. Before starting with her, I was already an intermediate Japanese speaker. But it was at this level that it became challenging to stay consistent on my own. I decided to try italki, and she was one of the first teachers I trialed. She was the only one I continued with, and I'm so glad I did. She is incredibly flexible, whether it’s discussing any topic of your choice or focusing on specific aspects of Japanese, such as JLPT preparation. She also takes detailed notes on any vocabulary or grammar points I struggled with or learned during each lesson and sends them to me afterward, which has been invaluable. Thanks to her support, I’ve been able to significantly improve my Japanese skills, achieving JLPT N1 and even enrolling in a Japanese university. I’ll always remember my time with Shiori-sensei and the positive impact she had on my learning.

楽しく会話があった！

Ogni lezione è un piccolo passo avanti! しおりさん è fantastica! Non so come faccia ad avere tutta questa pazienza con me, che sono lento e sbaglio sempre, ma lei è sempre pronta a correggere con il sorriso! ほんとにありがとうございます.

great lesson 🙂

Had a great time talking about my upcoming trip to Japan. ありがとうございます！
