Kanako

I have been learning with Kanako Sensei for the last 6 months, starting from zero. My experience with Kanako has been excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants to learn Japanese in a fun, effective and personable way. She's been extremely attentive to my needs and pace, and very responsive to any questions, challenges and interests that I have. We have been using Genki as a guideline, but we often focus on specific topics that interest me, or go back to areas where I want to dive deeper. I now feel confident enough to have some conversations here in Japan, and everything that I have learned has always been contextualised with where I live and what I do, which makes it so much easier on my day to day life in Japan. It has been a great journey, and I am very grateful to have found such a wonderful teacher!

Kanako is such a wonderful teacher! She's always willing to spend some time making sure that you understand. Her personality is so kind which makes learning from her easy! She loves to just learn about you in a lovely and genuine way. Each lesson is well thought out and paced well too. Kanako also sends personalized feedback after each lesson which helps reinforce what was learned and what was missed. If you take lessons from her you won't regret your decision. I'm beyond glad that I chose her as my tutor and I am always excited for the next lesson.

Kanako-san has helped me immensely with improving my Japanese. I always look forward to our conversations every week. She is not only an outstanding teacher, but a kind, thoughtful and wonderful person. Whether you are a pure beginner, or looking to brush up on your conversation skills, I absolutely recommend learning with Kanako-san!

Kanako san is the best teacher of Italki and I have always said it! We talk a lot during class about many topics! Not just one! And Kanako san let’s the student talk a lot and she let me ask her questions too! That is why I always like Kanako san Lessons 🌸

Thank you for another wonderful lesson Kanako-san. Whenever I get stuck saying things in Japanese , Kanako-san will kindly wait and then intervene to help me say what I want to say in Japanese. Thank you Kanako-san☺️

Kanako-san it has been a while! Kanako-san as always makes the lessons relaxed and fun and we talked a lot about my time in Japan! I am still learning Japanese and Kanako-san helps me a lot during Conversation Lessons!
