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
I look forward to continuing my Japanese language journey with Yamamoto Sensei and am grateful to have her as my teacher.
I first started seriously learning Japanese in 2012 after I had my first phone conversation with my Japanese aunt. From 2012 to 2014 I started learning more Japanese through college courses and devoted self study. As someone with mild autism I found I could easily dedicate myself toward learning Japanese language and culture. I also continued to have phone conversations with my aunt.

I began my Japanese language comeback on June 2nd 2020 when I started my first class with Yamamoto Sensei. Luckily I had learned a lot of Japanese language before and retained a lot of the knowledge from when I first learned it, so I was able to easily regain a lot of the knowledge I had forgotten as she educated me through the lessons. I am currently taking one class a week because of my busy work schedule as a massage therapist, I would like to take more than one class with Yamamoto Sensei in the future.

Yamamoto Sensei is very kind and has so much to offer, when she teaches a class it is made quite clear that she possesses plenty of experience as a teacher and plenty of knowledge on Japanese culture. She orients the class to the student's goal and is flexible to schedule changes. She also lives in Japan, and thus lives in a Japanese Language environment which is an invaluable way for a foreigner like myself to learn about Japanese language and culture. As I continue Yamamoto Sensei's lessons, I find myself learning something new in every lesson and it always gives me a sense of happiness to learn something I never knew before.

Yamamoto Sensei's positive personality makes the classes a lot of fun, and it is especially enjoyable when we have cultural exchange conversations. I still to this day am eager to learn from Yamamoto Sensei the meaning of every word in my favorite song "愛のメモリー".

山本先生、ほんとうにありがとうございます。
