2020 Awesome Lesson Awards (Spring/Summer)

January - June 2020 Cafetalk Special Event

Thank you for learning with us and our amazing Tutors
this Spring/Summer 2020!

It has very admittedly been a very crazy first half of 2020. From expecting to host the Olympics this summer, Japan has postponed the Olympics and big parts of our world have been put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We here at Cafetalk have been extremely lucky to be able to continue our service by allowing all of our employees to work from home, and we have been even more lucky as we feel our service managed to provide a source of income for many tutors and teachers who lost teaching hours. And hopefully, Cafetalk has been a source of joy and learning for those students who kept on learning with us while protecting others by staying at home.

Therefore, we are looking toward this Award season in a somewhat more serious fashion than usual, but we still wish to allow our students to vote for those tutors that have helped them and their kids through quarantine (whether voluntary or not) and to say thank you to all those tutors who have diligently kept on teaching through these difficult times.

A big thank you from the Cafetalk team goes out to all of our students and tutors! ♥

Without further ado, we are ready to open up the polls to choose the most popular lessons & tutors of the first half of 2020☆★

Vote for a favorite lesson that you’ve been taking on a regular basis, or let the world know about a new rising star you’ve discovered.
Make sure to support the tutors you think deserve some recognition for all their hard work!

Students' Voice

  • Korean Free Talking 60mins(Feedback included)

    I´ve been taking Zinie´s lessons since last year and even though I´m still a beginner, she made it possible for me to talk to her in Korean for an hour. And it was always a lot of fun. She prepares a topic beforehand and leads patiently through the conversation by asking many questions.

  • Espresso Italiano

    I´m happy that I found Flavia here on Cafetalk. It is a lot of fun talking to her. 30 minutes go by so fast every time and I can feel comfortable talking Italian with her.

  • Basic Korean Grammar (for beginners)

    Zinie´s grammar classes are always very helpful. I learned a lot, since she can explain very well and if necessary also in English. She always provides material and a great feedback, so I can review the class!

  • Japanese For YOU! 30mins

    Maki-sensei is a great teacher, who makes sure to provide the lesson according to the student´s needs. I asked her if we can use a specific learning technique and she prepared everything perfectly. I can highly recommend her!

  • Interesting Idioms!

    初めて受講しました。Joshの誠実な人柄が伝わってくる楽しいレッスンでした。このレッスンはイディオムを学ぶものですが、単に暗記するだけでなく、様々なアクティビティを通して定着できるよう工夫されていました。ディスカッションやロールプレイもあり、こちらの言ったことに対して共感したりアドバイスをくれて嬉しかったです。また、レッスンの前後に何度かメッセージを交わしましたが、常に懇切丁寧で感動しました。今後はこのイディオムレッスンに加え、スピーキングやライティングのレッスンもお願いしようと思っています。引き続きよろしくお願いします。

    かの有名な歴史ある都市、インスタンブールについていろいろと教えてもらいました。先生は、パワーポイントを作って教えてくれました。とても熱心な先生です。もっとトルコのことを教えてもらおうと思います。
