Peter M.

17 Japanese lessons

I have had an interest in Japanese culture for a while now, so I decided to start fresh with Japanese. Thus far, I have found his lessons to be satisfying, enjoyable, and rewarding. In contrast to the slow progress of my high school class, I have progressed very quickly with Mr. C's Japanese lessons. His lesson plans and teaching methods make the language easy to learn and inspire me to do my best without placing pressure on me.

Yuko took the lead and drove a comfortable, constructive conversation that was tailored around my progress. When I made mistakes, we would stop and discuss the correct grammar/vocabulary just long enough for me to get a firm grasp on the correction before proceeding. Before I knew it, we had spoken to each other in Japanese for nearly an hour. I'm looking forward to continued learning with Yuko. ありがとうございます, ゆこせんせい! Thank you, Yuko angel!
Sage T.

My son was born in Japan and goes to a Japanese school in South bay. I plan to let him go to a local school in Palos Verdes district. In the current school, he takes ESL class every day but it is not enough to catch up the local school. So before sending him there, I let him study, talk and sing (National Antham) with Patricia. It worked very well! He improved phonics and writing skills. My son is shy and does not chat with strangers even in his mother language.
