Aya

あやさんがレッスンのためにすごく準備してくださって感謝しています。iTalkiで色々なレッスンを受けたことがあるのですが、あやさんが一番準備した教師です。僕なんか初心者じゃないから日本語をチャレンジしたかったのです。他人の教師に比べてあやさんは自然な日本語で話してくれて感謝しています。いつも赤ん坊のような日本語が大嫌いです。僕らの日系アメリカ人なんか現代的な日本語を話せてくるようにあやさんのレッスンを受けるべきだなぁと思います。

I had my first italki lesson with Aya先生. Aya先生 was very patient when I was talking Japanese and guided my attempts very constructively. I was provided homework to further work on what we practiced during the lesson which aligned very well with my learning goals. It was overall a very nice experience!

Aya has excellent communication outside the class. She is very patient with me and helps me correct my mistakes with my pronunciation. She gave me feedback, and a plan for review for our next session. As a beginner in Japanese, learning from someone new can be intimidating, but I feel very comfortable working with her after the trial and a first session.

いつもご親切に話してくれて感謝しています。あやさんはすごく自然な日本語を教えてくれて毎回にどんどん上達できてくると思います。説明も分かりやすくてなんとなく僕の頭が悪い人でも理解できます。いつもありがとうございます。

Today I was able to finish the first section of the Genki book with Aya san. I always appreciate that she is understanding and respectful of the fact that I can be extremely busy, especially lately and goes at a pace that works best for me. She is always well prepared for each lesson which has helped a lot with my learning. Can't give her enough praise, she's an awesome sensei.

今日もありがとうございます。僕なんか憂鬱なのですが、ちょっと会話をできて気分が良くなりました。離婚後の時期がつらいけどなんとなく新しい友達を作ってから元気になるはずかもしれません。
