Ryosuke was very good at fixing and explaining the errors in my speech and grammar. He gave examples how a native Japanese speaker would say in any given situation which was really helpful. Now I just have to tackle the Kansai dialect next! Thank you for the lesson!

Fun as always - simulated situations like loosing one's wallet or smartphone in Japan & how to get help by others. See you next week!

今日は本当にありがとうございました。 先生のレッスンはわかりやすいですね!

Ryosuke changed his notes, which where previously handwritten, to Google Docs. With this method, we chatted the first 20-30 mins while Ryosuke wrote down what I said. In the last 30min, Ryosuke and I went through my saying and he corrected both grammatical mistakes, the wrong or weird usage of words and guided me to a more native way of speaking Japanese. Even though I already liked the lessons how they've been before, this new style is even more effective in my opinion. It helps me a lot to go through my sentences in detail and to reflect on: "What did I want to say" and "How would a Japanese express this?" Really recommend this kind of lesson to anyone, who does not only want to speak Japanese without mistakes, but also in a natural way!

A lot of content covered, took time to explain things well, and extended the lesson by a few minutes.

Ryosuke teaches with practiced skill and at a good pace, providing a google document to track what was taught. He also challenges you a bit with questions based on all your previous answers. He arms you to answer the questions yourself. Arigato gozaimashita.
