Ryu is a great teacher, I highly recommend him! He’s patient, and puts everything into context which makes it a lot easier to understand. And he teaches both the formal and informal version of vocabulary. I will continue taking classes with him!

Murakami San lessons are very good and easy to learn. He has good command of the English language so he can explain with accuracy and for best comprehension for the language learner. He has a calm and sincere demeanor. Very patient and kind when he speaks and teaches lesson. I highly recommend his lessons for Japanese and Tagalog.

Taking lessons with Ryu has been an amazing way to practice my Japanese. He's a natural conversation partner, and is always actively listening. He politely corrects my Japanese, and his excellent English skills are super helpful for bridging the gap in understanding. Highly recommend you check him out!

Great casual conversational English class with Ryu! He is calm, patient and casual. It was nice to talk about traveling to other countries, languages and linguistics, food and other topics. It was a casual class where we could talk about anything. He is a nice person to talk to! He didn't interrupt me and he listened to me carefully which is cool. I tried to keep the conversation going and it was fun and enjoyable. It was nice to meet him today and I hope to have another casual class with him soon!
