ことな先生 does an amazing job of explaining things without using English at a level that I can understand by using a combination of words that I know along with images and text.
I think speaking is my weakest aspect, and she makes it easy to talk about anything and provides corrections for any mistakes and even alternate ways to say things in a more natural way
I don't feel worried or nervous about making mistakes ( I make a lot! )
I have been impressed with how quickly ことな先生 has been able to speak using grammatical structures that I can understand (somewhere between N5-N4) and she helps explain ones that I don't.
I highly recommend ことの先生 for anyone of any level!
