I had my first trip to Japan last week, and I understood a lot!! The information that I learned from lessons with Ayako really helped us to not get lost and due to me understanding my surroundings (signs etc) a bit better, it definitely made the trip so much more interesting and fun !!
ありがとうございます、あやこ先生!

Great lesson with Ayako talking about dental care around the world, the breakfast foods we eat, the importance of checking expiration dates, and the fruits we like. As always an incredibly fun lesson that’s not only filled with helpful feedback and new vocabulary but lots of laughs, great conversation, and relating on our shared experiences!

Great lesson with Ayako talking about creative hobbies and how it’s hard to come up with ideas, AI images, and men learning to feel women’s pain. It was a great lesson as always with very fun and interesting conversation and helpful feedback. Ayako is always such an engaging and caring teacher!

Les leçons avec Ayako me font beaucoup progresser ! J’étudie avec des manuels souvent mais c’est grâce à mes leçons avec Ayako que je peux faire le lien entre tout ce que j’apprends et le mettre en pratique. Elle réponds à mes questions et développe toujours ses réponses et c’est très enrichissant 😊 Ma compréhension du japonais a nettement augmenté mais je dois travailler dur sur l'oral ! C'est un rendez-vous que j’attends toujours avec impatience merci beaucoup pour votre gentillesse アヤコさん♪
