So I have been studying Japanese for roughly 4 years now on my own and at my own pace mostly reading and listening. It was only a year ago when I went for a study abroad exchange program in Japan that I realised how little I knew of the language; not only I was struggling express myself in Japanese, other factors such as sentence structure and pronunciation made it difficult for me to speak Japanese effectively even though in my head it makes sense. Additionally, listening to my Japanese friends speak in casual Japanese is entirely different from the one’s you get taught from apps and textbooks which added more difficulties. That’s when I encountered Chika sensei and her Japanese Speaking Course. I saw the reviews and samples, and it’s exactly what I needed to improve my speaking. I ended up enroling myself to the Japanese Intermediate Speaking Course (N3-N2). The course itself, like others have mentioned are very well structured, and the content is representative of what you might talk about in real life. The feedback I received from Chika sensei everyday were very informative and I can confidently say that my speaking has improved in one month. Moreover, it also taught me new words or expressions that otherwise I would not have learnt had I not taken the course. I also appreciate Chika sensei explaining any question that arises relating to the content. Overall I am extremely pleased with the course and Chika sensei’s support. I look forward to the rest of the course!ありがとうございます！
