    The explanations of vocabulary are very clear and easy to understand each time. The tutor kindly teaches me not only the words themselves, but also their usage and cultural context.

    During the lesson, I learned that the great屋久島 cedar that has been around for years is where the Spirit Princess from Mononoke Hime resides!

  • Kakui
    KakuiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 20:18:02

    The way of progressing through the textbook, the teaching method, and the pronunciation corrections are all very professional and truly excellent.

  • Kakui
    KakuiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 20:17:23

    The way the textbook is taught is wonderful. It feels just like receiving lessons in person.

  • Kakui
    KakuiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 20:16:49

    The teacher talks a lot, but they always include small questions, so I'm able to practice speaking without falling behind, which is really helpful.

  • Kakui
    KakuiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 20:15:32

    I'm studying business Chinese, and the teaching method is really excellent. The lessons are packed with content in the 50-minute sessions.

  • Gyousetsu
    GyousetsuTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 10:59:09

    This time too, the teacher didn't just teach from textbooks, but taught me plenty of everyday expressions I can actually use. It was a fulfilling lesson in just 25 minutes!

  • Izumi
    IzumiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-03 03:33:06

    I learned about homework time (daily rhythm). I think it's a word that's used frequently. Thank you so much.

  • Machi
    MachiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-02 21:49:07

    Thank you, teacher!

    Thank you so much, teacher!

  • Mutei
    MuteiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-02 20:54:28

    The tutor writes the meanings and usage of vocabulary that comes up during lessons in the chatbox and sends them to me, which is incredibly helpful when I review later. Since they teach plenty of example sentences, the explanations are easy to understand, and the lessons have become really substantive and in-depth.

  • Izumi
    IzumiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-02 18:52:05

    Tents are affordable, aren't they? They're especially necessary during earthquakes.

  • Mikiko
    MikikoTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-02 18:50:27

    I forgot to press the button. Thank you so much.

  • Gyousetsu
    GyousetsuTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-02 10:38:04

    The teaching method is so skillful that every 25 minutes passes in a flash, and I'm enjoying the lessons so much. Thank you!

  • Souren
    SourenTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-01 10:29:41

    She is not a teacher with a strong accent, making her easy to understand. Additionally, her teaching style was excellent, adapting well to my needs. She is a wonderful teacher.

  • Yona
    YonaTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-01 05:23:26

  • Mona
    MonaTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-31 22:05:29

    Today, I studied lessons 64-69 from "Master Chinese Sentence Patterns 100!" There were some idiomatic expressions that I couldn't have guessed just from the characters alone, and it was really fun learning them.

  • Mona
    MonaTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-31 22:03:17

    Today, I studied four-character idioms with my tutor. I learned that when you directly translate Japanese words with similar meanings into Chinese, they often end up having a completely different impression. There are so many words like that.

  • Gyousetsu
    GyousetsuTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-31 10:01:37

    Thank you so much for today's fulfilling lesson. You provided plenty of examples and had me practice listening and writing. Your lessons are incredibly motivating. I look forward to continuing with you!

  • Souren
    SourenTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-31 08:30:41

    I always receive bright and polite lessons. This time as well, you explained the difference between 想 and 要 by providing example sentences, which was very helpful. It's very easy to understand. I look forward to working with you going forward.

  • Mutei
    MuteiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-31 05:20:34

    AsakiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-30 21:21:03

  • Sakiko
    SakikoTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-30 18:29:07

  • Tete
    TeteTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-28 23:37:39

  • Hoshi
    HoshiTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-27 22:50:51

    With VooV, is it possible to view the chat from during the lesson after the lesson ends, like it is with Teams? If it's not possible to view it, would it be possible to switch back to Teams? I'd appreciate your response.

  • Mikiko
    MikikoTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-26 01:42:32

  • Koa
    KoaTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-25 10:07:26

  • Koa
    KoaTutor ★★★★★ 2026-07-25 10:05:43

    Today, I had a conversation with the teacher about school and social media. The teacher also taught me how to add stamps to WeChat, the app used in China that's similar to LINE in Japan.
