Message from a Nihongo-Pro Student
Nihongo-Pro has been an incredibly easy to navigate and fruitful experience for me as a language student.
I take lessons with Nakano-Sensei twice a week and I absolutely love my lessons and time spent with Nakano-Sensei. I have been taking my lessons for a little over six months and I have learned so much Japanese. One of the things I really enjoy about these lessons is the connections that are made between teacher and student. One day I would love to visit Japan and be able to meet Nakano-Sensei.

Not only have I been able to grow in my knowledge of a new language, but I have also found a new hobby in my lessons. Studying Japanese has become something I naturally do in my free time, and it has also made me feel more confident in my natural ability to pick up new languages. Because my time with Nihongo-Pro has been so fruitful, I have decided to study Japanese as my minor in college and would love to teach English in Japan one day.

My favorite part of my week is taking lessons with Nakano-Sensei because I really enjoy the interesting conversation with someone from a different country, as well as the personal connection. I have learned a lot, not just how to speak Japanese, but also about the rich culture of Japan. My interest in the country has only grown since starting my lessons, and I’m confident that when I am finally able to visit Japan I will be able to get around and speak with ease.

I cannot recommend Nakano-Sensei and Nihongo-Pro enough. I would gladly suggest these services to anyone looking to learn Japanese. Thank you Nakano-Sensei and everyone at Nihongo-Pro!

Message from a Nihongo-Pro Student
Nihongo-Pro tailors my lessons for my specific needs.
Before I discovered Nihongo-Pro, I was faced with an apparently unsolvable dilemma: I had a background in modern Japanese, but I needed to learn how to read Japanese texts from the late 19th and early 20th centuries for a research project. I could not, however, find any resources for reading this kind of text.

Before I started, I had no idea how much the Japanese language had changed in the past century in terms of grammar and kanji use. Working at a small university without a developed Japanese program, I was not sure where to turn for help for acquiring such a specific set of Japanese skills.

Although my situation was unusual, Nihongo-Pro was more than happy to find a teacher who could help me. Nakano-sensei has been an amazing resource. She helped me to find Japanese books on how to read texts written in my period of study and formulate a study plan. She has time and again patiently helped me to tackle even the most difficult texts, and I am deeply grateful for the extensive preparation she has done before each online lesson.

Nihongo-Pro is more than a resource for passing the JLPT; it can flexibly accommodate a wide variety of individual Japanese language instruction needs for students anywhere in the world where there is an Internet connection.
