I LOVE learning w Mayumi Sensai! As a beginner, she makes me feel very comfortable even though I’m going into this not knowing much. I also enjoy our little side conversations in which Mayumi will teach me specific words used in our conversation and translate them in Japanese! Highly recommend Mayumi Sensai if you’re a beginner in learning Japanese :)!

Mayumi-san is a very knowledgeable and experienced Japanese teacher. I found her conversational teaching style especially helpful for speaking skills. She's also really good at explaining concepts of Japanese language in a way that’s easy to understand.
