I am a big fan of Murakami Sensei's teaching style. He sends me materials before our lesson so I can review it - there is structure, free talk and he explains all the questions I have regarding any grammar or phrases. 10/10 would take his class!

Murakami-sensei was very fun to talk to, kind, and engaging. The way on how he was teaching made me understand what he was saying more clearly. He made sure that I learned a whole lot of new things and his voice was very clear, which was an important aspect that I like. I hope to have a lesson with him again. Thank you so much sensei!

Murakami-san is always patient and makes a lot of effort to make sure that you get to the point of the lesson. He uses a lot of examples to ensure that you can use the new vocabulary in the best possible way and get every nuance of it
