Tomomi Sensei is fantastic! We had a wonderful conversation, and she took the time to carefully understand my Japanese despite all my mistakes. She is energetic, patient, and supportive. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their Japanese.

I really enjoy Japanese lessons with Tomomi Sensei. She does an excellent job meeting me at my level and then teaching me useful things through fun conversations about our daily life. I took the JLPT N5 in December and lessons with Tomomi Sensei were a significant factor in my successful JLPT outcome.

Tomomi-sensei is always patient. She guides the lesson, has me read the textbook for practice, and never makes me feel bad for not knowing kanji. I appreciate her teaching style and would recommend her to other learners.
