HIGHLY recommend Aya-sensei - she is truly a rare GEM! I've taken over 30 lessons with her so far and she is by FAR the most caring, patient, and diligent Japanese instructor I've ever had! From the very first lesson I had with her, she always makes sure that she is supporting my Japanese language goals in the most effective way possible that suits me. I love talking to Aya-sensei and feel so lucky to have her as my Japanese teacher!

Aya san is an amazing teacher!

今晩はもうちょっと睡眠できるように祈っています。早く起床させられてごめんね。宿泊したお友達も「ごめんね」とお伝えください。

Aya-sensei, the legend! I started out with Aya-sensei for her Japanese explanations and patience through basic conversations and essays I would do for homework. Over time, I can see the progress and impact Aya-sensei has on my Japanese, as well as my confidence that grew alongside with it. Aya-sensei gives me the flexibility and creativity to choose my own learning. Whenever I request to try out a new exercise (perhaps some grammar practice, or just today, starting out a mini-review of vocab per lesson), Aya-sensei always does her best to give out resources and her help! It's this type of support and consistency that makes my Japanese journey so much more enjoyable. Thank you so much Aya-sensei!
