We had a lovely time talking about calligraphy and I learned a lot of vocabulary related to that! Also some grammar that happened to come up. I really appreciate that Aki-san takes time after the lesson to write out sample sentences using that vocabulary and grammar that I can use to review!

I am really impressed with how intuitive Aki-san is- she always picks up on the things that I'm struggling with, even if I don't realize what they are. Then she knows exactly what to do to help me improve. Additionally, she does all this while still having a fun and engaging conversation! ありがとうございました！また次のレッスンを楽しみにしています！

Very fun lesson with Aki talking about the different types of art supplies we like and have, how we have so many similar objects, how hard it is to draw in perspective, and how fun it is to draw stick figures! Such a pleasant time with such an engaging conversation and helpful notes and info on more interesting art supplies!

I think I talked a lot today! 話しすぎました！I had a wonderful time talking about my Japan trip and also about how much Aki's conversation lessons help me to understand and speak more and more Japanese. And also to have the confidence to just speak it everywhere in hotels, the post office or just standing in line. Whenever someone can't speak English I can speak enough Japanese to get by and have lots of fun traveling Japan.

A very fun lesson with Aki talking about how my smartphone died, how frustrating it is that we need technology and two factor authentication for everything , learning languages and how fun and interesting it is that our behavior and thinking changes with each language as well as how hand gestures can mean very different things in diff places. Lessons with Aki are always such a blast. I never know where the time goes!

Very fun lesson with Aki talking about overgrown trails, the type of wild animals we encounter, Copic markers and how the price differs in the US vs Japan, and how language learning is much better in a one on one setting vs group. Always such a great time with lots of interesting topics and new vocabulary to sound more natural!
