As previously said, Shoko is a great teacher, simply for setting the pace to your level. Her way of teaching is also great, when I am struggling with Hiragana or Katakana, she does not tell me straight away the answer, but rather giving hints towards the answer, listening to her way of teaching is indeed rewarding. One year of duo lingo meant nothing, compared to how much I learned from here within some sessions. Yes, I do recommend Shoko as a teacher to anyone who wants to learn at a steady pace!

Shoko sensei is doing a great job! She is patient with me while I struggle to remember some notes and when much needed she gives subtle hints to let my own thought process to work. She had documents and material prepared for all lessons. While Japanese itself is an incredible hard language for the English speaking people, having a teacher as Shoko san helps tremendously, simply because she is setting herself to your pace and makes every lesson to feel rewarding with every minute you spend learning. Thank you Shoko sensei for all your work!

Shoko San prepared extra grammatical explanation material for me before the class. It's detailed, clear and helpful. And we did lots of oral practices to help me get familiar with today's target pattern which was helpful.
