I had already tried a few teachers on italki and honestly had great experiences with many of them. However, Tom really stood out, and I think he is an exceptionally good teacher. I always had trouble โjust getting the words out.โ Of course, I still do, but I feel like I've finally reached the point where I can have actual conversations in Japanese.
Tom manages to create an atmosphere where I donโt feel nervous at all. He speaks at a level that makes him easy to understand. At every moment, Tom is very attentive, incredibly friendly, and overall just a pleasure to talk to.
One thing that makes the lessons valuable is the shared Google document where Tom writes down new words, corrections of errors I've made, as well as some useful phrases. This is very helpful for reviewing the lessons and preparing for the next one.
If you are scrolling through these reviews trying to determine if Tom is the right fit for you, I am absolutely confident he is.

I've had quite a few lessons with Tom and honestly I still can't believe I was lucky enough to find him as a teacher. Our conversations are always so fun, I feel like I'm talking to a friend. He mixes formal and informal language and speaks in a way that is neither too easy nor too difficult. That way I still get a challenge without being discouraged. Also, Tom is always so nice and available when it comes to questions/ lesson changes/ scheduling/ etc. ็ตถๅฏพใซใใใใใงใ!

Tom is a great teacher, he is super patient, willing to help, he has a super nice personality and on top of that he speaks very good English, so if push comes to shove you can rely on English to clarify things. I would highly recommend Tom.

My first lesson with Tom was helpful. He asked questions to determine what my goals are for learning Japanese. He gave a short trial lesson at the end to showcase how he teaches. He uses a combination of workbook pages and then sends what you were introduced to after the lesson so that you may review the material. I appreciate the intro which included a mix of formal and informal styles of speaking.

This was a great first lesson! He made sure I got to pick the teaching method which suited me the most. He was also excellent at keeping the conversation going when I stagnated. A very rewarding, and motivating first lesson!
