Mitchell-san is a wonderful learner and person. I can tell how determined he is to achieve his goal from his questions, way to speak and the fact of making notes of lessons. He just started to learn Japanese and willing to learn how to write/read as much as he wants to be able to enjoy conversations. We went through What, When, Where, Why, Who and How. And learned a few greeting and introduction sentences. He absorbs so quickly. Also applies what he just learned and comes up with new sentence. That's just amazing to see. It was fun to figure out what the marks on old pachinko balls mean together. I'm definitely looking forward to talk with him again. Ouen shiteimasu! おうえん しています!
