Me as a Teacher
I majored in linguistics at university and I am a qualified Japanese teacher.
When I was university student ,I helped to international student to study Japanese as a volunteer.
From my experience of studying English and Spanish, I realized the difficulty of learning a foreign language. Therefore, I can understand the difficulties that you feels when learning a foreign language.
So I try to explain the grammar etc clear and easy-to-understand.

I have been taking weekly lessons with Tatsu sensei for almost two years. I truly enjoyed all the lessons. He is always supportive and patient, sending me notes on vocabulary and grammar. And we always have a good time chatting about daily life. I recently participated in the Ontario Japanese Speech Contest and got 4th place prize in the intermediate category. I really think lessons with Tatsu sensei helped me build a solid foundation for pronunciation. I highly recommend anyone who wants to improve their Japanese to try out his lessons!

I highly recommend Tatsu as a teacher. He is very patient and well prepared for every lesson. He also regularly checks that I have understood different concepts and grammar points before rushing off on to the next topic. I enjoy my lessons with Tatsu a lot.

Learning "ndesu" which I'm finding a little bit difficult, but Tatsu is always so patient and helpful. Reviews what we have learned the previous lesson, and will re-explain if I don't fully understand it. His explanations and examples are really clear, and he is very encouraging! Gives me confidence that I'll get there !
