“This center is just amazing to easily learn, grasp, speak and understand Japanese in the simplest way possible. Not only my fear of learning a new language disappeared within a week, but the classroom vibe was also very positive.”
Taking this Japanese class has truly been one of the highlights of my learning journey. From the very first lesson, I felt welcomed and encouraged to do my best. Sensei is not only knowledgeable but also kind and patient, always making sure everyone understands before moving on. I’ve learned so much — not just about grammar and vocabulary, but also about Japanese culture and ways of thinking. The speaking activities have helped me become more confident, and I’ve really enjoyed connecting with my classmates through our shared interest in the language. Every class feels inspiring and fun, and I always leave feeling motivated to keep learning. I’m so grateful for this experience and excited to continue improving my Japanese.... I highly recommend to join Hikari centre not just to learn but to understand japanese !
All the teachers are very nice and very friendly ... A must join japanese class !!!
After returning from my business trip to Japan, I decided to learn the Japanese language so I could read Japanese books and watch web series to better understand their culture. During my search for a good class, I found Hikari Center and spoke with Chaitrali-sensei. After our discussion, I decided to join—and I’m very happy with that decision.
Both Chaitrali-sensei and Anagha-sensei are excellent teachers. They not only teach the language but also guide us to truly explore and appreciate Japanese culture. One of the best things about Hikari Center is the small batch size, which allows for personal interaction and ensures that every student’s questions are addressed. They also encourage us to read and speak confidently, which has really helped me improve.
I sincerely thank Chaitrali-sensei and Anagha-sensei for their dedication and guidance. I highly recommend joining Hikari Center to anyone who wants to explore a new language, culture, and exciting opportunities under the guidance of such wonderful teachers.
Learning N5 with Chaitrali-sensei has been a wonderful experience. Her teaching style is very clear, patient, and structured, which really helped me build a strong foundation in Japanese. She explains grammar in a simple way, gives many practical examples, and always makes sure that I understand the concept before moving ahead.
Thanks to her guidance, one2one classes with her helping me to build confidence in reading, writing, and forming basic sentences in Japanese. I am truly enjoying learning from her and would definitely recommend her classes to anyone starting their Japanese journey
