Nana was wonderful. She was very patient with me and she challenged me to use my Japanese more. I definitely recommend her for those who are serious learners.

Nana sensei is a very attentive teacher, and she listens carefully and customizes to my learning needs genuinely. I feel very fortunate to come across Nana sensei among so many italki Japanese teachers, and the vibe is exact. Next week, she'll be tapping my weakest link into the Transitive verb v.s. Intransitive verb. I'm very excited. ^_^V
I highly recommend Nana sensei to anyone who loves Japanese culture and the Japanese language.

Nana is probably the best teacher I have used so far! She is so enthusiastic which helps foster a relaxed speaking environment. In our short trial lesson she made the most of our time and corrected my mistakes in a way that is conducive to helping me remember and speak Japanese better. See you in the next lesson. :)
