Mic Yukiko Murayama

Interesting lesson as usual. I can see that Yukiko-san is proficient in teaching; she is good at guiding students to think on their before giving them the correct answers. I enjoy this way of learning very much. Even if you get the answer wrong, you still learn a lot, compared to when you’re directly given the correct answer.

Yukiko can explain difficult grammar rules and nuances in a way that I can understand with my limited japanese... always impressed!!!

In the beginning of the lesson I shared my Lunar New Year routine with Yukiko-san. She corrected my grammar and usage of words. And then we continued with the text. There are some nuanced differences between the vocab words, and Yukiko-san, as always, explained them so well!

Yukiko is always preparing every lesson very diligently and manages to teach my various new grammar structures but also always give me room to try out speaking Japanese on my own! It's very helpful at the beginning of every lesson to have a chat with her. She listens very patiently to my words, corrects me and helps me find a more natural way of saying things. Yukikos lesson give me the feeling that I learn real Japanese instead of textbook Japanese taught in various learning books. Please consider Yukiko as your Japanese teacher, as well :) I am always looking forward to our great lessons and also, my Japanese has improved a lot ever since our sessions. Thank you!

Great lesson as usual, learned some new useful sentence patterns!

Before I started learning Japanese with Yukiko-sensei I knew only Hiragana, some kanji and nearly no grammar. After 60 lessons with her, I went to a festival of modern Japanese cinema and found that I am able to grasp meaning of many short sentenses in the movies without reading subtitles. Thank you very much.
