I started getting Japanese lessons from Yoko to prepare for the SAT Japanese Subject Test. From our first lesson, she was very engaged in helping me. She is always prepared, organized, and I enjoyed my lessons with her. Yoko will make sure you know what you are doing, and she is very knowledgeable! Not only that, but she is also kind and understanding. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a Japanese tutor.
