 note = {For about two decades one-on-one English tutoring has attracted many Japanese English learners mainly because it contrasts previous unsuccessful learning methods that Japanese students have been exposed to. One-on-one English conversation lesson presents numerous features that are the reasons for its popularity. One of those features is that it gives the opportunity to learners to continuously  participate in the conversation. The learner also has the full attention of the teacher, who often customizes the lesson to the learners’ learning needs and adjusts his or her speaking speed and vocabulary to the learner. However, one-on-one English lesson style course are provided by private English conversation schools and are expensive. This study investigates the satisfaction and self-perceived oral communication improvement of English learners who have completed an English course with a leading one-on-one English conversation company headquartered in Tokyo. The findings revealed that learners were highly satisfied with one-on-one English lesson style, and strongly feel they have improved their English conversation skills in comparison to improvement made from English lesson in large English classes. The findings also show that one-on-one English classes contributed to increased motivation to learn English and confidence to engage in oral English exchanges.},
