This class was, like all the other classes I have taken from Nihongodekita, excellent.
We learned new and useful ways of communicating in Japanese. And as always, it is simply a lot of fun to be in one of Sayaka-san’s led classes. I am very grateful to all of the teachers whose kindness and desire to help us learn the language is truly impressive.

I took both the 104 and the brand-new 201 courses with Nihongodekita, and the results speak for themselves. After 14 weeks of live, two-hour sessions—packed with breakout-room drills, rapid-fire Q & A, and detailed feedback—I can navigate everyday situations in Japanese: ordering food, asking for help, even light banter with friends. The format forces you to use grammar and vocabulary the minute you hear it, which locks the material in far faster than textbook study alone.
What really separates Nihongodekita is structure and support. Classes cap at around two dozen students, yet three or four teachers circulate, correct, and encourage in real time. Weekly speaking homework gets personalized video feedback, and office hours are genuinely useful. If you’ve finished Genki I and want to move past “tourist phrases” into natural, flowing conversation, this course is worth every penny. I’m already waiting for the next level course—and have already traveled in Japan this year without defaulting to English.

This class was extremely helpful for me in improving my Japanese. We learned a bunch of new Kanji, new conjugations that I use almost on a daily basis, and a ton of vocabulary. Sayaka Sensei’s classes have made me so confident in my ability to speak Japanese that I moved to Japan with no hesitation. Some of my classmates and I have passed a JLPT test after taking courses with Nihongodekita and are confident speaking Japanese with each other. I still have plenty to learn, but I’m really looking forward to the next course offering once it is out!
