About Me
italki teacher since Oct 23, 2018
Hi everyone. I'm Yuko. I live in Tokyo. I have a certification to teach Japanese. I would like to help more people improve their Japanese skills. I've been studying English online for years and I majored in Spanish at university. So, I totally understand how difficult and enjoyable it is to learn a new language. はじめまして。私の名前は優子です。東京に住んでいます。 日本語を教える講座を終了して、資格を得ました。 もっと多くの方が日本語を学ぶお手伝いをしたいと思って、italkiで教えています。 私自身も何年もオンラインで英語を勉強してきましたし、大学ではスペイン語を専攻しました。 他の言語を覚えることの難しさや楽しさを知っています。

Yuko sensei is fun to work with. She does her best to type the words I don’t know on our shared Google Doc. This allows me to catch common words and practice them. I should practice more, but our agreed on speech first allows me room to flow and have fun making up sentences. She’s fantastic!

Yuko is a fabulous teacher. There is a reason that she has taught over 3500 lessons. This because she excels at what she does and she is very encouraging. For anyone who hasn't taken one of her lessons yet I suggest you do. It will be the beginning of a great journey studying with a wonderful person.

Yuko-sensei is a born teacher. She is the best of the best, on iTalki or anywhere else. I've studied many languages with many teachers, and Yuko tops them all. Why? 1) Yuko is smart--really smart. And I don't just mean that Yuko speaks great english (she does!) or that she understands Japanese grammar well (she does!). I mean that she can engage on many topics and still have something interesting to say. Once you get past talking about Takeshi and Mary's dating life, trust me, having an intelligent, interesting person to talk to is priceless. 2) Yuko sees you. Her ability to dynamically adjust her speaking and writing level is more elegant than anyone I have ever worked with, period. She remembers what Kanji you've seen and forgotten, she remembers the words you always mix up. This is how she walks the line of pushing you hard without frustrating you. During our time together, I truly feel Yuko and I have become friends, and I am so grateful to be one of her students. -- Liam

Yuko is a great conversation partner and is so much fun to talk to. She's energetic, engaging, and is great at explaining things in an understandable way. She's also fast at catching and writing down unknown words for future reference.
