Sie ist sehr geduldig, freundlich und gut gelaunt, auch wenn sie es sicher nicht leicht mit mir hat. Sie erklärt wirklich gut. Es macht einfach Spaß und ich freue mich immer wieder auf die nächste Stunde.

Lessons with Mari-san are very well-structured and incredibly enjoyable. We don’t just focus on the study material, but also talk about personal topics, which makes the sessions feel natural and lively.
What I appreciate the most is how carefully Mari-san pays attention to correct particle usage and pronunciation. At the same time, she always gives me space to express myself and gently guides me when I’m missing a word or grammar point – often in a way that helps me recall it on my own.
She is not only very kind and patient, but also has extensive knowledge of the Japanese language and many general topics, which makes every lesson interesting and varied.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Mari-san – whether you’re looking for a few lessons to prepare for traveling to Japan or intensive study for the JLPT.
