Wako sensei is very easy to talk to; if you are shy or anxious, she is a good teacher to have as her lessons are fun and very engaging, so there is no time to think about feeling shy or being nervous just about learning Japanese and sharing some laughter. So, I really appreciate that.

Wake is a great teacher. Her Japanese is easy to understand and she is very patient with me. I am 60 years old so learning Japanese for the first time isn’t easy for me but Wako makes the process pleasant without any stress. I highly recommend her as a teacher.

Woko 先生 is always the best teacher. She is very patient and always helps me correct my mistakes. When learning new knowledge, she also helps me review what has already been learned. She also manages the pace of teaching very well and can flexibly adjust it according to my learning speed. I really enjoy Wako先生 lessons~

I had an exciting class with Wako Sensei this evening! Even though I was sick she made the class very engaging and fun and was able to accommodate me time wise since I wasn’t sure if I would have the energy for the entire lesson. I really appreciated that ☺️ Please consider booking a lesson with Wako Sensei, she is fun, easy to get a long with and of course a very knowledgeable teacher! I love how clearly she has been explaining particles, It’s been such a pleasure

I'm actually a pretty shy person, but I feel very comfortable with Wako sensei. Our lessons are well structured, so there isn't time to be nervous, just to have fun and learn. I really enjoy that Wako sensei is a teacher who knows how to teach; this has helped me to continue my Japanese studies and take them more seriously this time around. Please consider booking a lesson with Wako sensei; I'm sure you'll enjoy your first lesson so much that you'll want to come back for another!
