Japanese Speaking Review & Plan: 30-min Online Session

Speak with guidance. Leave with a plan.

More than conversation practice — speak Japanese, get expert feedback, and leave with a clear next step.

Online (Google Meet) ・ UK evenings (7:30–8:30 pm) ・ Beginner to advanced

Too much passive study and not enough real speaking? This focused 30-minute session gives you a supportive space to speak and a professional review of your strengths, areas for improvement, and what to work on next. We begin with a short diagnostic, move into a guided conversation in Japanese, and finish with personalised feedback and a simple action plan.

5. People within and outside the UK who can join during UK evening hours.

2. Guided Japanese conversation: 15–20 minutes of speaking practice adjusted carefully to your level.
3. Speaking review: clear feedback on strengths, patterns, and areas to improve.
4. Support during the session: helpful, level-appropriate guidance where useful.
