ありがと🤍🤍🤍mariさん
Erfolgreich haben wir die zweite Unterrichtsstunde abgeschlossen und wie immer war es super organisiert!🤍
Die Stunde vergeht leider immer so schnell, jedoch nimmt man viel Input mit.
Ich find es super, dass wir Leseübungen sowie Rollenspiele durchführen.
Ich freue mich auf die nächste Stunde😊

Started with past tense short forms! Very useful in quoted speech and "I think that..." sentences.

Today was a funny and difficult lesson for me!
Ahh we learned big numbers in Japanese and it was really difficult but Mariさん did her best to explain how it works. She is really patiently and understanding when it comes to new things ٩(^‿^)۶
I also appreciate the perfect examples and the preparations for the lesson🤍
