Testimonials
For anyone who finds speaking Japanese daunting and embarrassing, I wholeheartedly recommend Akari-sensei. Through her 3-month beginner course, daily conversations, and private one-on-one sessions, she creates such a supportive and encouraging environment to practice and make mistakes.

I’ve been learning Japanese for a few years now but have no place to practice where I live, which made me lose a lot of what I learned. Akari has been so helpful with working on the things I’ve forgotten.
She’s very responsive and easy to schedule calls with and she always helps if I have questions. I’m glad I found Akari and will continue learning with her program!
