Hear from our students
Find out why students and families trust Tokyo Academics to help them reach their goals!
I’m incredibly grateful for everything my counselor has done for me. He was not just a tutor but truly a mentor, motivating me to put in the work to reach my goals. He taught me that success isn’t instant—I needed to envision my goals, set smaller checkpoints, and not be afraid to fail. Even though I’ll be leaving Tokyo, I’ll always remember those grind sessions.
TA has been my ultimate support throughout high school and it gave me tremendous academic and emotional support. It is an environment that pushes me beyond what I thought was possible but also gives me comfort through care and guidance. It has made me more confident in my capabilities while giving me the ambition to reach higher. Thank you for creating this environment for me, other students and many more students to come. I will always credit my high school success to TA and continue to appreciate the care it puts into every individual. I’m sure I will continue to rely on TA for many things and I am excited to continue this journey of achievements together! Thank you so much! See you at graduation!
Never have I had a teacher so supportive and respectful. I’ve been saved by your efforts multiple times and I can never thank you enough for it. From the time we spent covering AP® World History material to helping me write college applications, I couldn’t have made it without you and your help. As I move onto college (thanks to all the help), I’ll truly miss you, the people at TA, and the office. Being able to learn from teachers like you has helped changed my life and I can’t stress enough how impactful your work is to a student like me. Again, thank you so much for all the help these past few years.
Wow! 11 point increase in MAP math when starting at 99%! That is fabulous. I am so thrilled with how you worked and taught Ella this year. We can’t thank you enough. You helped Ella to get a high enough score on her ACT to make it into the CTY advanced math program too. It’s been the easiest year for us family having you as her math tutor.
I can’t believe I’m graduating already! It feels like just yesterday I was attending the SAT® class at Tokyo Academics during the summer. My consultant single-handedly changed my life—no exaggeration. I remember our first conversation about my university goals and future plans, and the look they gave me when they saw my sophomore year grades, haha! From the bottom of my heart, I truly want to thank my consultant for never giving up on me. They were the greatest role model I could have asked for. Thank you for shaping me into the person I am today.
I can say with certainty that my consultant has had the single most significant influence on my high school career. Ever since our first AP® World History DBQ lesson and the group class sessions that followed, he has given me tremendous support and guidance in every way possible. It was a major turning point in my life (haha, get it?). He made me genuinely enjoy learning, and I looked forward to our weekly AP®WH group lessons. Thanks to his incredible teaching, I did really well in the class.
It didn’t take long before I came to rely heavily on his wisdom. I’ve never felt as comfortable or honest with a teacher-like figure before, and I believe it’s because he shows an unmatched level of care. I constantly found myself thinking, ‘What would he tell me to do?’ His influence extends far beyond the classroom at Tokyo Academics—he’s become a part of the way I think and make decisions.
So much of my success is owed to the academic and emotional support he provided. I can confidently say I have learned more from him than from any other teacher or counselor. His commitment to his students’ happiness is inspiring, and it’s incredible to see how tirelessly he works to share his immense knowledge with us.
I can’t believe the time has come for me to write you this letter (not to mention graduate). I also can’t believe it’s been 2 years since you took me under your wise wing and started tutoring me. Tbh when I first saw you at TA, I thought to myself, “Why is he so energetic at 9 in the morning?!” Thank you for everything you’ve helped me through these past few years. I’m not even kidding, I would probably be a hella panicking teenager if it weren’t for your constant support. You’ve seriously helped me through so many hurdles in life. You’re one of my biggest role models in life, and I’m eternally grateful I got to be your student.
From English papers to college applications and even occasional STEM help, I can’t thank my counselor at Tokyo Academics enough. I’ve encountered my fair share of teachers—the good, the bad, and the okay—but he truly made the greatest impact on me. He inspired not only me but also many of my friends, even when we didn’t make it easy. He was tough on me at times, and I’m so grateful for it now because he pushed me to become a much better writer. I owe so much of my self-confidence and accomplishments to him. I don’t know where I’d be without his guidance. He was more than just a tutor, and I’ll carry his lessons with me wherever I go. I’m truly thankful for his unwavering belief in me and for showing me what I’m capable of.
As you may know, AP® scores came out. I just wanted to share that I got a five on the AP® Calculus BC exam! I wanted to thank you for all the help and guidance you have given me for both AP® Calculus AB and BC. Thank you once again for all the help throughout the year.
