Kaoru

I'm 100% sure that lessons with Kaoru-sensei are the main reason I'm now comfortable speaking Japanese. Of course, there is a long road ahead, but I'm very positive about this journey. Lessons with Kaoru-sensei have had a uniquely positive impact compared with any other type of instruction I’ve tried. Before meeting Kaoru‑sensei, I experimented with self‑study, group classes, and company‑provided teachers, but it all felt like banging my head against a wall. I didn’t even have the basics needed for a simple conversation, yet I was under the false impression that I was making progress. Kaoru‑sensei spends a lot of time on each lesson, shaping the material to fit my level and goals. She even drops in jokes or topics we’ve talked about before, which makes every class feel fresh and personal. Her genuine care shows in every little tweak she makes, and I know she’s truly invested in my progress. That’s why I stay excited for every session.

フリートークとても楽しかったです。 ありがとうございました。

Very engaging lesson.

とても話しやすくて優しい先生です！ 私が話したことのメモをとってその内容に応じた質問をたくさんしてくれました。すごくしっかりしている経験のある先生でこれからはまたレッスンを受けてかおり先生の指導で日本語が上達することに間違いがないです。今後もよろしくお願いします🙇🏽‍♀️😊 Kaoru is very approachable and kind! She took notes on everything I said and asked lots of questions based on that. You can tell she's an experienced teacher and there's no mistaking my Japanese will improve with her guidance. I'm looking forward to my next lesson with her 🌸

Kaoru-san’s slides and notes are very useful. She took me through the different verb structure and explained the conjugation, with a lot of exercise

老师亲切温柔的对话和讲解给了我很多帮助，正要准备去新泻旅游，和老师针对这一话题展开了很多对话，学习了很多当地的文化美食知识，而且每次课程结束，还会有针对问题、新学的单词、讲课内容等进行梳理和反馈，真的是十分周到贴心～有机会再和kaoru先生一起学习！ 先生の優しくてやさしい会話と説明は本当に助かりましたよ！ちょうど新潟へ旅行に行こうと思っていたんです。その話題をきっかけに先生とたくさん話して、地元の文化や美食の知識をたくさん学びました。そして、毎回のレッスンが終わると、質問や新しく学んだ単語、授業内容などを整理してフィードバックしてくれるんです。本当に丁寧で気配りがいいですよね！また機会があったら、Kaoru先生と一緒に勉強したいです！
