I have just began my lessons on Japanese and Kyoko is quite good at what she does. She has a great grasp on teaching language and I find it easy to retain the information the way she presents it. I would highly suggest her for lessons!
Sidney Reuben L.

1 Japanese lesson

Sensei taught me the basics and foundation to write and read hiragana characters. It was an intensive three hour class but it worth it! I was able to take it all in and feel confidant about hiragana. And she was really nice to help point me in the right direction to self-study Japanese. Thank you again Sensei!
Helen W.

20 Japanese lessons

I'm able to learn a lot from each lesson mainly because Fumiko has been able to teach me in a patient and easily comprehensible way. Not once did I feel uncomfortable. I also learn different ways to practice a language with not just Japanese, but in general.
