Emi

どうもありがとう for レッスン 150! Thank you for being a 素晴らしい先生, エミさん! I'm very happy that I found my way to your classroom, almost 2 years ago! All the progress I've made with my Japanese studies has been thanks to you and our 楽しい lessons together. Let's hit 200 before the end of the year! がんばって!

This teacher is really fantastic. She will often point out things that you do that sound non-native, so you can perfect your linguistic ability and sound more like a native Japanese. It is hard to find a teacher that points such things out. I definitely recommend this teacher.

Great lesson with Emi! We reviewed the sentences I wrote using the ~すぎる grammar. We also did review exercises for the ~んです grammar and learned about the ほうがいいですよ grammar. Emi really helped me understand and use the grammar points. Lessons with Emi are always fun and enjoyable!

Every lesson with Emi-san is full of laughter and I feel really accomplished when we finish. We are now having bits of conversation in simple Japanese, something I wasn't sure I'd ever been able to do, and it's all thanks to her enthusiasm and niceness that motivates me to keep up studying.

Great lesson with Emi! We did some small talk on several different topics. We reviewed the workbook page I did on "ほうがいいです". After that, we learned about "ので" and did some practice exercises. Emi is good at bringing up the previous vocabulary to make sure I remember it, and she has positive energy even when I make mistakes!

I was so impressed by Emi-sensei's approach throughout our lesson. One of my goals in my current Japanese studies is to speak more natural Japanese and I was so impressed by Emi-sensei's efforts to help me in that regard. She taught me more natural phrasing at multiple points, explained the grammar and wording and even provided multiple ways to express something when appropriate. I was so impressed by Emi-sensei's attention to detail, she's such a great teacher. Couple that with her ability to keep the conversation going with great questions and interesting topics, I highly recommend her.
