Why do you want to learn Japanese?

I have always been interested in Japan and learning Japanese before I made the decision to come to Tokyo. I studied in England and knew a basic amount of Japanese before I came and it was enough to do daily Japanese conversation.

I also work in a Japanese environment and my Japanese is improving, but I want to take the next step from speaking enough Japanese to get by to being able to communicate whatever I am thinking. I really enjoy talking to people and have Japanese friends that I would like to have more in depth conversations with as well.

Why did you choose Japan Switch?

I was looking for a school and I saw an ad from Japan Switch. I liked how I could come in the morning before work and take a lesson and then go to work. I also saw the positive reviews from other students on the school and the price for lessons was attractive.

How are your lessons?

I am enjoying my lessons with Wako Sensei and the lessons are beneficial for me. I like how we start the lesson with some conversation in Japanese to get my brain warmed up early in the morning and then move to more challenging topics and conversation. I also like how we are not doing just textbook the whole time.
