Akihisa.K

I've taken nearly 30 lessons with Akihisa-Sensei now, and we've recently finished the first textbook. I was scared to take Japanese lessons at first because of my busy work schedule and not having a lot of time/energy to study. Akihisa encourages mistakes and happily makes corrections as needed. He provides extremely detailed homework/study sheets after each lessons and can easily switch lesson formats as needed. I would have never had the confidence to continue learning as an adult if it had not been for Akihisa. If you're considering taking Japanese lessons trust me- if you go with Akihisa-sensei your investment will be worth it!

Akihisa先生 is a great teacher that really helps me get better in speaking, grammar, vocabulary and gaining confidence in outputting Japanese. He encourages me to speak a lot by asking good questions and being a patient listener. His explanations are easy to understand and the feedback and homework afterwards is super valuable. It also helps to have some common interests like the NBA and movies :) I highly recommend Akihisa先生 and looking forward to many more lessons!

I am finishing my last lesson package with Akihisa-san, and I can safely say he is the best teacher I have ever had at Italki. First of all, the flow of the class is very good, Akihisa-san natrually slows or speeds up the conversation depending how the conversation is going. I also feel confident on taking risks with more difficult sentences, since his in-class feedback is very good, it doesn't stop the flow of the conversation, but helps you understand the point you missed. Also after every class Akihisa-san sends me a very organized and useful feedback with relevant lesson points, like grammar or vocabulary I missed, or that he thinks will help me out. For sure will continue with the classes, since I feel my japanese has improved since I started my lessons.

めちゃくちゃ有意義な時間でした！色々勉強になりました！ありがとうございます！

I just had my first trial lesson with Akihisa-sensei, I was really nervous and was scared I would mess up, but it was a really good lesson! Akihisa-sensei really guided me well throughout the lesson, and in between gave a little grammar explanation so I could use immediately in our conversation. It was very helpful. Also in the end of the lesson he gave feedback. I left the classroom with a good feeling, I'm sure if I continue taking lessons I will improve my Japanese much more, so I will definitely take some more lessons with Akihisa-sensei

ありがとうございました。楽しかったです。 Thank you for the lesson, it was very interesting to have your opinion on the story. Sorry for the coughs. I hope it was not too disturbing.
