I’ve been taking Japanese lessons with Kaori-san for a few months now, and she is a great teacher! Kind, helpful, patient, humorous, and just a sweet person all around. Her lessons can be as structured or as informal as you like, but she always makes sure you get lots of opportunity to practice by speaking. She’s happy to take as much time as you need to answer questions or review things until you’re comfortable, and is very generous with her time outside of class if you have even more questions, which i often do! I look forward to every lesson! かおりさん、ありがとうございます！

Had an amazing lesson with Kaori today. She really makes the lessons enjoyable as we reviewed and reinforced material from previous lessons. She took extra effort to ensure I understood everything before moving on. The role playing was an invaluable exercise allowing me strengthen my Japanese comprehension. She was super patient encouraging me to self correct my errors AND time to process the learning. The best parts of the lesson were when she said "すごい” to some of my Japanese responses. At the conclusion of our lesson, although still very much a beginner, I left feeling confident, motivated, and looking forward to our next lesson.

先生の伊藤かおりさん、いつも本当に素晴らしいです。I could not study for a few months. But when we met, とても忍耐強くて優しかったです！I am so excited to keep learning with her!!!

I've been taking lessons with Kaori-san for many months now and she is always so patient and helpful. I never feel nervous talking to her. Our lessons are always a lot of fun and I'm improving with her help.

An amazing teacher! I only booked a trial lesson so far, and after only 30 minutes, she has given me tons of feedback and notes to take with me. She also gently corrected me during the lesson, which was very, very kind. Talking with her was a pleasure and I hope to do so again very soon!

Kaori San is a fratastic teacher. She is very patient with my poor japanese 😩. Explains things very well. She has a great vibe and makes me feel very comfortable🙏
