Thank you for coming to the lesson. As output practice, you talked about what happened last week. Your big family gathering sounded like a lot of fun! We learned how to nominalize verbs using "dictionary form of a verb + koto." You practiced talking about your hobbies and dreams in Japanese. (Examples: My hobby is watching movies. / My dream is to live in Japan.)
I was really surprised to hear that the temperature in your city is around 40°C. That's incredibly hot! In Japan, the mornings and evenings are sometimes still a little cool, but you told me that it's hot all day long where you live—from morning until night. That must be very difficult. Even going outside must be a challenge.
Japan is also very hot during the daytime. Sometimes I don't even want to go outside. Staying at home and watching anime is the best!
Today, we studied the difference between どこ (doko) and どこの (doko no).
めがねは どこですか。 Megane wa doko desu ka? Where are the glasses?
① ここです。 Koko desu. ② そこです。 Soko desu. ③ あそこです。 Asoko desu.
----
これは どこの アニメですか。 Kore wa doko no anime desu ka? Where is this anime from?
にほんの アニメです。 Nihon no anime desu. It's a Japanese anime.
Thank you for showing me your adorable dog, Kyuubi, during the lesson. Kyuubi looked so calm, energetic, and cute! I hope Kyuubi can join our Japanese lesson again next time too.
Thank you again for coming to class today. See you in our next lesson!

Thank you for coming to the lesson. You learned to express what you like using the sentence pattern “～ga suki desu.” You also learned the basic negative sentence pattern “～ga suki ja arimasen.” In addition, you learned the basic question pattern “～ga suki desu ka?”
Thank you so much for the first trial lesson, Andy! Talking with you made me crave Japanese food so much—especially Chicken Nanban! Since I live in Miyazaki Prefecture, there’s actually a restaurant nearby that is famous for inventing it!
Have an amazing time on your trip to Japan starting in two days! Once you get back, please reach out to the office. I’ll start getting ready for our second lesson!
Thank you, as always, for joining the lesson. It was wonderful to see you. Today, we continued practicing “have to” and “must” from Intermediate 1, Chapter 10. You shared your daily routines, your favorite foods, and the foods you don’t like. We expanded our conversation using phrases we studied before. Thank you for sharing so much — talking is the fastest way to improve your Japanese. You did a great job, and I really enjoyed our time together. I hope it was a good and enjoyable lesson for you as well. Wishing you a great week. See you next week!
