I like music. I sing Japanese folk songs while playing the shamisen (Japanese traditionl guitar with only 3 strings). I play the guitar while singing Spanish songs. I like movies. I listen to the sound of foreign languages and imagine the people who live there. I like to study languages. I want to spend my whole life interacting with people from all over the world in various languages. 音楽が好きです。日本の民謡を三味線を弾きながら歌います。スペイン語の歌を歌いながらギターを弾きます。映画が好きです。その国の言葉を聞きながら、知らない国の人や生活を想像します。言葉の勉強が好きです。一生かけて世界中の人といろいろな言葉で交流したいと思います。

Sensei is very knowledgeable about where I am in my level! It's sometimes difficult to speak because I'm used to reading and writing. As I try to translate/remember words in my sentences in my head my speak gets cluttered but she coaxes out the sentences gently and even gives me words to improve my vocabulary and make the sentences I want to say. I'm excited to be working with her on improving my spoken (and written) Japanese and to be able to use what I have learnt to output and formulate my sentences. She even used a white board to help illustrate a few conjugations and gives very nice detailed notes on what to go over and improve for next time! 本当にありがとうございました!

I took the intensive 10-session course. My Japanese is at an advanced level, and I have a hard time finding teachers who can meet my needs. With Mari-sensei, however, I didn't have to worry about anything. She spent time asking about and understanding my goals, and then came up with a highly detailed course structure and evaluation rubric, completely customized for me. I felt like I was in capable hands from the moment we started working together. She has a great personality too, and a lot of empathy for her students. She always brought a great energy to our sessions, making me more eager to learn. She could tell when I was afraid to make mistakes, and encouraged me to let go of my fear. And even though I can sometimes be a pedantic learner, she always had enough patience to deal with it. I wish every learning experience I've ever had could have been more like this. Thank you, Mari-sensei!

Eu estudo Japonês desde pequeno no Brasil, com familiares, em Kenjinkais, e também estudei particular e no Bunkyô na Liberdade. Mas nunca fiz progresso tão rápido quanto como tenho feito com a Mari Sensei. As aulas são super dinâmicas e interativas, o que ajuda muito já que estudar idiomas já adulto e trabalhando é bem difícil. Mari Sensei tem muita paciência, e muita mas muita experiência. As vezes há partes de bunpô ou vocabulário que é difícil de explicar para alguém que fala Português ou Espanhol. Mas ela sempre tenta explicar de duas, três, etc, formas diferentes, ou utiliza experiência que ela teve com outros alunos para criar um modo de ensino diferente. Antes de começar a estudar com a Mari Sensei eu estava estudando por conta para o JLPT N3, mas não compreendia muito mangá, jornais, anime, filmes, e conversas do dia a dia, mesmo conseguindo fazer os testes de exemplo do JLPT. Agora não me preocupo tanto com a JLPT e senti minha compreensão melhorar muito e rápidamente.

初めのレッスンがあって良い感じです。僕が書いた作文を一緒にチェックして直しました。間違えましたとき、まず自分でちょっと考えて直してみました。もしまた間違えたら、一緒に直しました。Suzuki さんはすごく気の長いな人ですから、よかった。次のレッスンを楽しみしています。 I met Suzuki san for the first time and I got a really good feeling. She was really patient with me and when I made mistakes, she gave me time to correct the mistakes. I'm looking forward to meeting her again.
