Takuya

I've had a few lessons with Takuya San at this point, and I can confidently say he's a great teacher! For me personally, as a beginner, I really struggle with listening comprehension. I think the fact that Takuya uses direct method of teaching is really forcing me to listen carefully and kind of "switch my brain" if that makes sense. In addition, I'm always surprised by how quickly the time passes. I think this is because there are so many activities packed into each lesson. It all feels very dynamic and engaging. In addition, he has a very positive and patient spirit, so you feel at ease and comfortable making mistakes. Finally, I wanted to add that his schedule is super packed with classes yet somehow, he always comes to class very prepared. I really appreciate him as a teacher and would highly recommend him, even for someone who is a beginner like me!

老師一直以來都運用多元的授課方式上課，不管是日文檢定、日常對話、面試練習、綜合討論、日中翻譯、還是動漫日語，你想要的老師都能製作教材，而且非常精美，會讓你覺得真的物超所值😂 我認為從50音到高階日文學習者老師都能找出適合的方法。 一直以來的課程，老師都非常的有活力而且幽默，會關心學生的近況也會分享自己的生活，在學日文的同時感覺像交到了另一個朋友。 如果你還在猶豫要不要開始上日語課，請一定要試看看TAKUYA老師的課程😊

先生、 今日もありがとうございました😊 お話しできてすごく楽しかったです。 レッスンの時間はいつもあっという間ですね。 今日はゆっくり休んでくださいね🌙

Takuya-san is an inspiration of a teacher (and human, more generally). He comes to class with a gentle, affirming energy that creates a welcoming environment where it’s safe to try out new sentences, make mistakes, and learn from them. The effort he puts into his students’ success is very evident and is extra motivation for me to put in the time outside of class — reviewing his notes, listening to his recordings, writing my own journals — to make sure our class time is used well. Somehow, he is both exceedingly professional and relatable at the same time. He is clearly an experienced instructor and has a wealth of innovative language games, role plays, and discussion topics that can be easily integrated into lessons when we have a few minutes left of unplanned time. I’m grateful and truly lucky to have Takuya-san as a guide for my Japanese language journey!
