Kisako teachers are expert in drilling students and in explaining
Japanese grammar. Every Kisako teacher has undergone extensive
specialized teacher training, either at renowned programs such
as the SPEAC program at Ohio State University and the Exchange: Japan program at Bryn Mawr College, or through Kisako's own internal training
program.
Learning Japanese is tough. So even serious students can get tired
and discouraged. At times like those, it's great to know that
Kisako instructors care. Though they are tough -- they do not
allow you to get lackadaisical in class -- they are always encouraging.
Put another way, like dedicated coaches, Kisako instructors push
you to the limits of your ability, but never let you fail.
Here's what some of our students have to say:
"I had struggled through a college-level course in Japanese but
still had no practical speaking or listening ability. Kisako's
program put me at ease and raised my comfort level in Japanese
dramatically. The instructors are exceptionally talented, capable
-- and patient! They are also creative, devising study methods
that helped me easily master points that had stumped me in the
past. I felt like we were all members of a team, working together
to improve my language skills."
Maggie Tai Tucker
"With Kisako, you get a trained teacher who probably knows what
your question is before you ask it, and who will remember from
week to week what you know and what you don't. They'll drill you
hard, too. After a Kisako lesson, my brain is always tired out. But that's how you know that you actually learned something."
