Hear from our contented students and parents.

Koh sensei and class tutor, Ng Sensei are both exceptionally personable, helpful, and service-oriented. They responded quickly with aid, feedback, and support, making each class a positive experience. I would gladly recommend their classes to friends! Keep up the great work!

Ease of convenience, interactive lessons and off-class support :D Very good!

Highly recommend this academy for learning Japanese online! The class schedules are flexible, and they do a great job placing you with a group at a similar level. Both sensei's were super friendly and made the lessons engaging and interactive. The learning materials provided are also really helpful. Great experience overall!

Daia 先生 is an amazing teacher. I highly recommend her for anybody who wishes to learn Japanese. Thank you Nami for appointing her to me. Thanks to her teaching, I can communicate fairly well in Japan. 100 stars!

The lessons are personalised and engaging. Sensei ensures that all the students are able to speak and read accurately in the lessons. Very patient with the students.

The curriculum is well-structured, with a thoughtful balance between progressing steadily and revisiting past topics through timely reviews. Ng Sensei is engaging, professional, and always well-prepared. Lessons are enriched with useful supplementary materials shared after class. I appreciate the online lesson delivery which gels nicely with my busy professional life.

Teacher is really good. She goes through the lesson at a pace that I am able to follow and recaps on past topics often.

Have been learning Japanese with Ng Sensei at Nami academy since February 2024. Ng Sensei is a very proficient teacher who often goes the extra mile to impart her knowledge. Her patient nature ensures that students of all calibre grasp the concepts taught in class. She conducts her lessons with vigor and enthusiasm — never a dull moment!

Got online class! :D Good that no need to travel, teachers are kind and friendly too.

Convenient and affordable online lessons. Fast and accommodating replies from Nami academy. Good teaching materials provided. Daia sensei is superb!!! She's easy going, friendly, patient and clear in her teaching — I thoroughly enjoyed her lessons!

From the start, I was impressed by Nicholas' patience and ability to teach at a pace that was comfortable for me. As someone learning Japanese for work, he always made sure I could keep up, balancing challenge and support. Classes were casual and flexible, making learning stress-free. He answered every question thoroughly and I always left more confident. Thank you Nicholas!

The lessons are very well planned, with specific and progressive topics every week. It's all online which makes it very convenient and the lesson materials are extremely helpful as well.

I've really enjoyed my lessons at Nami Japanese Academy. What stood out most was how methodical the teaching was — every grammar point covered with a detailed, structured syllabus. Each lesson built clearly on the last. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a solid foundation, especially if you're aiming to pass the language exams. Thank you to the Nami team!

The best school for any tertiary students / working adults to learn Japanese for sure!!! I was attracted by the affordable rates and flexibility — lessons after school or office hours. I'm honoured to be taught by Ko-sensei and Ng-sensei, both extremely professional. Classes are systematic, fun and engaging, with lots of extra materials. I'm slowly progressing from “wakarimasen?” to holding basic conversations in Japan!

I first came across Nami through Instagram, and Ko Sensei reached out, assessing my proficiency with great understanding and professionalism. One year later, I've had the privilege of being taught by Ng Sensei — a passionate, dedicated teacher who makes even the most challenging lessons enjoyable. If you're looking for a Japanese school with passionate teachers, I highly recommend Nami!!

Ko Sensei puts in a tremendous amount of effort for his students. Rather than relying on a single textbook, he creates his own notes, assignments and online resources — self-tailored Quizlet lists, his own slides, and more that he generously shares. He's always willing to help even after lessons end. It shows he genuinely cares about his students becoming fluent quickly.
