I highly recommend Naoya-san as a Japanese teacher. He is always well-prepared, friendly, and very structured. His teaching style is supportive and professional, yet relaxed – which helps me learn with confidence. He uses a clear plan and adapts each lesson to my personal goals (like JLPT preparation). We use a variety of materials such as PDFs and conversation tasks that really help me improve. What I appreciate most is the positive and respectful atmosphere – I feel comfortable speaking, asking questions, and making mistakes. The lessons are interactive and motivating. Thanks to Naoya-san, I’ve made great progress in grammar, listening, and speaking. I always look forward to our sessions and truly enjoy learning with him.

Thank you very much, teacher Naoya! With your supports about 8 months, Eason (Itetsu) passed the JLPT N4 at age 9. He loves your class very much…. ナオヤ先生､いつもありがとうございます。およそ8ヶ月のレッスンのおかげで､いてつの日本語能力が上達しまして、九歳でJLPT N4 も合格しました。親切にご指導いただきありがとうございます。

今日も素晴らしいレッスンをありがとうございました！✨

Naoya-san is always extremely helpful and patient and cares a lot about making sure his students are getting the type of lesson they are looking for. I highly recommend learning with him! ありがとうございます、なおやさん！次のレッスンにたのしみです！

I’ve taken over 30 lessons with Naoyaさん and he’s the best teacher I’ve ever had! He’s very patient, supportive and kind. Naoyaさん goes above and beyond to make sure you feel confident before moving on and I never feel silly asking lots of questions. The lessons are always well thought out and tailored to what I need to work and improve on. The best thing about the lessons is that I can be my authentic self without any judgement. Learning should be fun and I’m always feeling happy and accomplished after our lessons together! I hope to continue improving my Japanese - ありがとうございました^_^

What I appreciate most about the lessons with Naoya-Sensei is the nice split between free speech, grammar work, and exercises from the Genki textbook. いつもありがとうございます先生
