Yuko-sensei is a phenomenal teacher - any day that I'm feeling a little nervous for class because I feel insecure in my Japanese or under-prepared for our lesson, I end up leaving the class with a renewed sense of self-confidence. That motivation & confidence she gives me paired with how helpful her explanations are make classes with her invaluable!! I can't recommend Yuko-sensei highly enough! ありがとうございます!

I have been having lessons with Yuko for a few months now. What a fabulous teacher she is. Yuko is always ready and well prepared and planned for each lesson. She challenges and supports my learning in the lesson and provides homework. With her support I learned the hiragana and now halfway through katakana. As a beginner, my reading, writing and listening skills have really improved. Yuko tests my knowledge and understanding through different activities which are fun too. Thank you Yuko for your lessons. I am really enjoying learning Japanese and am really pleased with my progress so far. I highly recommend Yuko. If you want a teacher that is patient and well organised and will help you learn Japanese, Yuko is the teacher.

Wonderful lesson as always. I've always been the type to start learning how to do something and she has been supportive and encouraging enough that I would never consider giving up on learning Japanese.
