I learn Japanese because I find this language beautiful and because I am interested in Japanese culture. After starting my lessons with Kanako Sensei, I felt a noticeable improvement in my speaking and writing skills. It is very easy to start speaking with Kanako Sensei since she always suggests interesting topics, corrects one's mistakes and is open, friendly and encouraging. While practicing speaking skills I also learned many things about Japan and its culture. For homework I write texts that Kanako Sensei corrects, explaining the contextual use of some words and new grammar points on specific examples. Writing by hand is the one thing that is impossible to learn through online lessons so it is a skill I have to work on on my own. Other than that, I feel that lessons with Kanako Sensei give me a lot and they are always very fun.
