3 Japanese lessons

Ryan is very helpful with teaching me Japanese. He is very thorough and actually taught the majority of the lesson in Japanese which really helps me click better with understanding. If I ever have a question, he clears it up quickly for me to better understand. He uses visuals/pictures and that is also very useful in learning. I highly recommend his lessons to anyone who is looking to learn the subjects he teaches.

We hired Catherine to help prepare our Senior for his second year of high school Japanese. He had struggled with Japanese 1 had skipped a year between, so was in need of some refresher lessons. Catherine was well versed in the 2 textbooks that my son needed to be familiar with, was patient, encouraging, thoughtful and very conscientious of his specific situation and challenges. She was always on time and very focused during the lesson.

Mamiko is terrific, she is personable, accommodating, and knows how to communicate effectively. She has improved my daughter's understanding of the Japanese language as well as her test scores. My daughter is taking Japanese II and currently has an A in the class. She actually looks forward to their tutoring time together. I even hear occasional laughter coming from the room. Mamiko has a way to keep it light yet effective. I highly recommend her!
