Great community. Loving it lots. Out of all other platforms I've been on such as Duolingo. Discord Japanese servers. And other communities I've been on.. I get all my questions answered. Live pronunciation meetings are fun and funny and there's no judgement when you make a mistake in your pronunciation practice. Just laughter and fun jokes, I highly recommend this community. I admit when I first saw the ad for it on YouTube I was skeptical due to past experiences. But honestly I have zero regret

Joining Matsu Academy has been an incredible learning experience ever since the first day. Unlike many online communities that are inactive and dull Matsu academy is the most active community I’ve ever had the honor of participating in! All of Matsu sensei’s courses are fun, engaging, and extremely well put together which makes learning and studying actually enjoyable, even for people who don’t like studying at all. I highly recommend anybody who wants to learn Japanese to join, いくぞ!

Matsu Academy will forever be a place that I keep coming back to every day. The community is absolutely amazing and very supportive of others. I never feel like I’m alone when learning and that makes the learning experience significantly more enjoyable. However, the highlighting part about Matsu Academy is having a teacher around who helps improve everyone every single day in their endeavor to learn a new language and has traits that every teacher should have. He’s a さま in my book.

I have been enjoying my learning here at Matsu. I have been able you understand and read a lot more than before and I'm still learning more everyday. Its really great being able to compare notes with other people learning and at different levels you can always ask for advice and feedback. You have to put in a lot of work to continue youre learning and pushing yourself. If you want this language you have to put the effert in or you wont again anything.

Matsu Academy is definitely the place to be if you want to learn Japanese, but also have a sense of community. I've definitely struggled learning alone with Duolingo, but Matsu Academy provides all the materials, recordings and live sessions to help you! Plus you work at your own pace, which is really nice. I'm the kind of person who needs constant feedback, both for writting and pronunciation. If that's what you're looking for, here you have it! :D
