I have been taking lessons with Saori on and off for a long time since I was a beginner. She provides are very comfortable atmosphere and is friendly. I'm at the talking stage and she's great at picking up what I'm trying to say and helping me speak more naturally.

This was my very first trial lesson on iTalki and I’m so glad I picked a session with Saori-san! She’s got such a warm personality and made me feel comfortable even though I’m super self-conscious about my Japanese conversation skills. I like that she types phrases I stumble over / had trouble expressing for reference and review, and am looking forward to more classes with her!
