Testimonials

  • "While in England, I studied English with various teachers, however, Vanessa is such a wonderful teacher that I definitely recommend her to you. Her lessons are full of ideas and well devised so you can't get bored. In my case, I asked her to strengthen my speaking and pronunciation. She gave me not only "free speaking" lessons but also variety of speaking lessons - such as by using English expressions (or idioms) or pictures, therefore my speaking skill improved tremendously.

    Satoru Fujimoto (Cultural Events Planner for Japanese Newspaper)

  • "One year has passed since I came to London. I realised that unless I started something to improve my English, I would not achieve more accurate spoken English - even though I would have got accustomed to hearing and speaking English to some extent. That is why I began to take Vanessa's lessons. I take one and a half hours one-to-one lesson once a week. The main part of my lesson consists of learning useful expressions in daily life, pronunciation practice and speaking. The content was decided in consultation with Vanessa.

  • "Vanessa's lesson is fun but of course I learn a lot of things from her. She is very kind too. I always enjoy her lesson. "

  • "I have studied English with lots of different teachers so far, and Vanessa is one of the best. She is full of teaching ideas & unique teaching techniques. Her lesson is always lots of fun and most importantly, it is very practical. I recommend her to anyone who is serious about studying English!"

    Ayumi (Pediatrician)

  • "My wife, who didn't want to go to a school without knowing a single word of English, was relieved to find out that she could take lessons at home where she felt comfortable. We thought that the tuition fee might be more expensive but to our surprise, it was cheaper than enrolling into a language school. It is very efficient as you learn one-on-one and I want to recommend Vanessa to colleagues that arrive in the UK in the future."

    Tomohiro Otani (Nomura Bank Employee)

  • "My son Junpei and I enjoyed studying English with Vanessa for almost two years. She was always very reliable, on time and well-prepared. When Junpei needed to pass the Pre-2nd Eiken test to help with his application to high school, Vanessa tutored him intensively. We were very happy when he passed the exam with good results. I would like to recommend Vanessa, and her company, JapaneseLondon.com, to other Japanese people living in London."

  • "I know that Vanessa, an English teacher in Tochigi City for three years, was loved by her students very much. She also studied Japanese language very hard. I really appreciated her."
