Thank you for attending the lesson. As output practice, you talked about participating in a mindfulness event. You have a wonderful hobby. We practiced the expression “~te imasu,” which is used to describe what someone is doing now. Since this pattern uses “te-form + imasu,” we reviewed the rules for changing verbs from the masu-form to the te-form.
Thank you for joining the lesson as always! It was great to see you again! In today's lesson, we practiced using nai-form, negative form. For example, we changed the following verbs to nai- form such as, ＊あるきます→ あるかない ＊なきます→ なかない ＊かいます→ かわない ＊かいものします→ かいものしない
** To make the nai‑form: • For Group 1 verbs, change the final u‑sound to the a‑sound and add nai. • For the irregular verb shimasu, change it to shinai.
I asked several questions today, and you responded very well. Also enjoyed our shared topics, such as cooking and the weather. In our next lesson, we will continue practicing the nai‑form and include some te‑form review. Thank you for your effort today. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead!
Thanks for coming to the lesson. I'm glad you're continuing my lessons. Let's have fun studying Japanese! Sorry, but I won’t have lessons next week. I’ll email you later.

I'm looking forward to seeing you again next week!
I really enjoyed teaching you. Thank you very much. I was impressed by how quickly you understood everything and how strong your learning ability is. Because of that, I found myself teaching you some fairly advanced words as well!
Today, we practiced shopping through role-playing activities. I hope what we learned will be useful when you visit Japan someday.
Thank you again for being such a wonderful student. I truly enjoyed our lessons together. 😊
Thank you for coming to 1st Japanese lesson today! I'm so glad that your Japanese pronunciations are getting better and better so quickly. I understand [e] line hiragana is difficult but I think you are getting the hang of it. So please practice again and again. I'm looking forward to your introduction in Japanese in next lesson!
