We've been coming since a few months ago and the difference in confidence is obvious. He came home with some real Japanese phrases picked up and used correctly and he wouldn't stop talking about it. My son tags along and asks every week when it's his turn to join. Already signed up for the next session.
Xavier has been counting down to Tuesday every single week. He came home with a handful of hiragana characters that can be written now and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Can't imagine our week without it now.
We've been coming since last fall and the difference in confidence is obvious. He came home with some real Japanese phrases picked up and used correctly and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Already signed up for the next session.
This has become the highlight of his week, no contest. He came home with some real Japanese phrases picked up and used correctly and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Sensei Kaito is wonderful with his whole group. Worth every credit.

Honestly didn't expect this much enthusiasm from her. She came home with a handful of real Spanish phrases used constantly now and she wouldn't stop talking about it. My older one has practice next door so this timing works out perfectly for us. Worth every credit.
