We Loved our first lesson

Yukari gave my two boys a wonderful first lesson. She asked lots of great questions ahead of time so she could prepare a challenging and appropriate lesson for my boys. And she was able to make it fun, entertaining and exciting for them both. They finished with brand new energy about learning Japanese and can't wait for their next lesson! Thank you, Yukari!

Great teacher, she’s patient and is always kind when I make a mistake.

Yukari P. really helped me with pronunciation and have more confidence in speaking. She has taught me a lot of helpful vocabulary so far in just the two lessons we’ve had together

Great Teacher

Yukari has an excellent way in teaching I have learned a lot in just an hour. We covered the basics of Japanese writing systems, numbers 1-5, colors some of the Hiragana letters and some of the basics words.

Excellent

Yukari sensei covered a significant amount of material but I was able to pick it up and her energetic teaching style shows that she is passionate about teaching Japanese!

Knowledgeable teacher who makes it fun

My daughter’s first lesson was fun. Yukari made it interesting and interactive. She looks forward to working on developing her Japanese with the help of Yukari.

Truly fun and enjoyable learning

This is my third or fourth review of Yukari-sensei, and I just can’t say enough wonderful things about our lessons. In addition to being educational, the lessons always manage to be very fun and enjoyable. I leave my lessons energized and excited to learn more. Even though most of my studying is still done individually, Yukari has opened up a new opportunity: immersion in the language. I’m forever grateful for her time and expertise. I look forward to many more lessons to come. As someone with an education background and degree, I can’t recommend her enough. 10/10. いろいろありがとうございました、ゆかり先生。

Personalized and purposeful lessons

Yukari continues to be incredibly well-prepared and patient with me while I learn Japanese. I feel like each lesson is well constructed and has clear objectives. I have noticed tangible improvements in my confidence and knowledge while speaking. I look forward to every lesson, and continuing to grow as a student under her. Highly recommend for any student looking to improve or learn Japanese.
