Speaking Japanese with Nao was a fantastic lesson for many reasons!
First, she is organized and is able to use resources to focus on a topic to discuss about. This is great for someone who is unsure of what to talk about in another language (as I do!).
Second, the flow of discussion is probably my favorite part of the lesson. We talked about current news in Japan and then the discussion organically flowed to our opinions, personal experiences and into other areas of relative interests. This is what I look for in speaking partners because talking in a language I'm learning just feels natural!
And I have to mention that Nao is very friendly, encouraging, direct and is able to understand even when communication is a little challenging.
One hour seems long but when it's this engaging time just flies by, so I hope to take another lesson in the future! Thank you, Nao!
