You can vote for lessons of any category.

The tutors with the most votes overall will be given the Grand Prize, and the Newcomer Award will be given to several new tutors.

Additionally the following awards are given out based on characteristics voted for by the students:

  • ① Most Fun Lesson Award
  • ② Best Kids Lesson Award
  • ③ Best Lesson Material Award
  • ④ Best Conversationalist Award

Other prizes are awarded based on student votes in the most popular categories.

We are looking forward to your votes and especially your thoughts and comments about the lessons you took during the last 6 months!

These awards are given out based on data accumulated over the past 6 months.
The categories are:

  • ① Seminar Award, ② Repeater Award, ③ Online Standby Award and ④ Tutor Column Award.

Unique Lesson Shout-out Awards

  • Japanese for 30 minutes x 6

    在練習日文口語的過程中與老師分享的生活大小事都會得到老師很真誠的回饋,即使說得磕磕絆絆老師也會很有耐心引導,不熟練的文法課後也會收到完整的統整。每次上課都很愉快且獲益良多。

  • ノビノビ, 伸びる韓国語『中級』

    JOYJOY先生に韓国語を教わって約1年が経ちました。 授業では、できる韓国語の教科書に加え、先生のオリジナル教材を使って勉強します。そのため様々な単語や例文に触れることができ、40分間があっという間に感じるほど、とても楽しく充実した時間を過ごすことができます。また、毎回フィードバックも欠かさず送って下さり、学んだ文法を使って先生が例文を書いて下さるので復習にとても役立っています。さらに宿題や日記も添削して下さるので、盛り沢山でお値段以上のレッスンだと思います。 1年前と比べて、韓国のドラマやバラエティー、好きなアイドルが話す言葉などが“音“ではなく“言葉“として聞こえるようになってきました。韓国語は日本語と似ているようで似ておらず、簡単なようで簡単ではない言語だと思いますが、これからも楽しみながら学んでいけたらと思います(*^^*) JOYJOY先生、いつも本当にありがとうございます。これからもどうぞよろしくお願いいたします!

  • 45-Minute Chat

    Cammie is a fabulous teacher, she always patiently listens to me until I finish speaking. If I ever get stuck, she will smoothly guide me to finish the conversation. Also, she always leave feedback during the class, so I can learn it instantly, and review it again after class. REALLY AMAZING
