Reviews

Very personable person, I very much enjoyed the tutoring that she gave. She explained things in a very clear way, which was a lot easier to understand and learn than some language learning books I have tried in the past. 10/10 I would highly recommend, and I will be using her services again.

Chikako is an incredibly supportive, encouraging, patient and organized teacher. She has helped me with intermediate to advanced Japanese speaking. She makes learning enjoyable and asks curious questions that gives me space and opportunity to really practice, while being guided. Highly recommend working with Chikako!
