Ayano-san is a wonderful teacher! She is very kind and well prepared for every lesson, and she always asks thoughtful questions that encourage me to speak more and use new vocabulary naturally. The conversations feel very natural and relaxed, while still helping me improve my Japanese through new vocabulary, cultural insights, and more. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a friendly and engaging Japanese teacher!

Ayano-sensei was really wonderful to practice my conversation skills with! She was friendly and I really appreciated her positive encouragement; she was patient when I took a moment to remember some grammar; and she was able to use context to rephrase questions and help me if I didn't understand at first.

Great first lesson. Ayanoさん was very patient and spoke at a speed that was very comfortable for me. She also kept the conversation very lively.
