Phil is a very polite, gentle, and pleasant person. It was my pleasure to have a lesson with him. I was also very impressed by his warm thoughts towards his family and friends and his experiences in Japan. He is also very diligent about learning Japanese. I'd be very happy to be of his support in his learning.

Thank you, Simone-san, for the first lesson! Your Japanese is very good and I am sure it will continue to improve! As you say, to make conversation longer, probably a bit of practice and various vocabulary will enhance your Japanese:) Also, your pronunciation is very natural! I really enjoyed the lesson and talking with you, thank you!
