Nozomi

Words cannot explain how much I love learning with Nozomi-san. She transformed learning Japanese from a simple interest into something I eagerly look forward to every morning. She is always friendly, easy to talk to and makes you feel very comfortable no matter where in your Japanese learning journey you are. Anytime I have had doubts about how I am progressing, she helps me see that I am getting better little by little. She is quick to adjust to any needs or questions that may arise and we always share a laugh and some fun conversations. Her knowledge is very apparent, and the way she explains concepts is easy to follow and well structured. In my opinion, if you are looking for the best Japanese teacher on italki, you have found her here with Nozomi-san!

As most of you will agree, learning a new language is a bumpy road. Particularly for self-study. However, thanks to Nozomi's lessons, I feel back on track to make progress. Despite the many mistakes I make, she is very patient and kind as she explains useful vocabulary and grammar to me. In addition to the lessons from the Genki textbook, there is plenty of room for real conversations that are normally difficult to practice in self-study. I feel strengthened to continue studying Japanese. Thank you, Nozomi sensei!

Initially I was looking for a teacher in italki to support my Japanese self-study. I had trial lessons with several teachers, but personally Nozomi Sensei suited my learning style the most. I have had 4 sessions so far, so I feel I could provide a more unbiased review. One major point I like about her teaching is how she corrects my speaking and sentence examples respectfully and kindly, with no judgement. Her explanation is easy to understand and whenever I feel confused about some grammar points, she patiently repeats her explanation until I understand. She also likes to go the extra mile at her explanations whenever there are important grammars or vocabularies related to my questions. And lastly, she is a very flexible teacher for a self-taught Japanese learner like me. I regularly list questions before the session begins and she explains them all in detail during the session! のぞみ先生のレッスンを受けられて良かったです！本当におすすめの先生だと思います！

I always really enjoy my lessons with Nozomi - she is great at facilitating conversations where I get to truly practice speaking and just simply conversing in Japanese. They're informal and low-pressure, which makes me feel super comfortable making any mistakes, and I feel a lot more confident about my Japanese level now! I also really appreciate the documents she creates afterwards which enable me to practice and revise the new vocabulary and grammar from the lesson. Nozomi's lessons are exactly what I'm looking for in my Japanese studies - I've had many lessons with her now and I look forward to many more!

間違ったところを丁寧に直してくれる優しい先生です！レッスンは勉強になりました☺️

Es la segunda clase que tengo con Nozomi先生 y, de nuevo, ha estado genial. Hemos visto vocabulario, gramática y expresiones para preparar mi viaje a Japón. Tiene materiales en PDF muy elaborados y completos y explica todo con mucha paciencia y amabilidad. Repasaré todo el material de la clase y, sin duda, repetiré clase con ella para seguir aprendiendo. ありがとうございます！
