Issei

Issei is literally the best Japanese teacher ever. As always thank you for all your help, and I’m so so excited about the progress I’ve made thanks to your support!!

This was a lesson for my 6 year old son. I can't say enough about what an amazing teacher Issei is! My son instantly warmed up to him and they hit it off. My son can be shy with strangers, but Issei had asked ahead of time for my son's interested. My son can't wait for the next lesson. Thank you very much!

Wow! Just wow! Such a professional, enthusiastic and experienced teacher is really rare to find! New to italki, but he has a vast experience of teaching on-line - and it shows. :) Moreover - he lived in Canada for a long time, his English is perfect and he understands both cultures completely. It says here he is a "community tutor" but, well, it must be just a matter of time until he get the professional badge - and raises the prices! ;) So - don't think twice - Issei is the best teacher for you - and for anyone! :)

I've been learning Japanese with Issei-sensei on Italki, and I'm genuinely impressed! He has a deep understanding of the language and is very theory-oriented, which makes each lesson intellectually stimulating. He doesn’t just teach vocabulary or phrases; he explains the structure and cultural nuances behind them, making the learning process both comprehensive and enjoyable. His teaching method is thorough, organized, and perfect for anyone who wants to understand Japanese beyond the basics. Highly recommend him for anyone serious about gaining a solid, theoretical foundation in Japanese, not just speaking skills.

Very educated teacher. Each lesson is so productive.

Issei is very patient and understanding, and has lots of great resources he gives out depending on what you have questions about or are struggling with. He's always willing to make adjustments to our lessons, whether it's spending more time on grammar or more time in free conversation, whatever suits my goals. He's very funny and adds humor to his lessons which helps lighten the mood and keeps everything interesting. My confidence in speaking has improved a lot with his help and so has my writing skills. His quality of instruction really does feel professional, I can't recommend him enough!
