David S.

21 Japanese lessons

I worked with Shinsuke for months on Japanese, so that I could talk with my Japanese girlfriend's parents, and I could not imagine a better teacher. Shinsuke's command of Japanese is extremely deep, and his English fluency means that he could explain Japanese language concepts and structure to me with ease. Equally important, Shinsuke is a very passionate teacher. Nothing made him happier than watching me succeed and increase my grasp of the language.

4 Japanese lessons

Mamiko sensei was great in explaining Japanese from the complex grammatical rules to the colloquial phrases. I appreciated how she begins the lesson with a discussion of current events and general conversation in Japanese -- something you won't find in a structured course at the community college. Overall, I feel much more prepared and really appreciate her patience and diligence in improving my Japanese.

I have been attending Japanese lessons with Yumiko Y. for the past nine months and I have found Yumiko to be highly professional, reliable and an excellent tutor. She is very patient and clearly explains the nuisances of the Japanese language and makes the lessons fun. I would highly recommend Yumiko for anyone out there seeking a Japanese tutor.
