Shino

Shino sensei and I had an educational and fun conversation about what we like and what we don’t like. It also helped me pick up on more Japanese words and what they mean. I really hope to visit Japan again very soon and experience more wonderful things Shino San!!!

Shino sensei is fantastic! She guides me with the use of the Genki textbook, which I also use for studying on days I don't have lessons. We also have fun conversing as we go over the lessons, whether it's about Japan or common interests. Overall, I truly feel like I'm improving with learning the japanese language with every lesson I have with Shino sensei!!!

Thanks again for another fun lesson Shino sensei! Though I’ve learned about the ru-verbs, u-verbs and irregular verbs, it’s all about knowing how to properly say them all in conversation. I do feel like I’m getting there, but I will keep studying and memorizing their proper usage for future Japanese conversations 😀

Today, Shino sensei and I went over I adjectives and Na adjectives. Both affirmative and negative forms as well as present and past tense forms for those adjectives and how to properly use them in sentences. Totally something new for me to learn and practice until my next lesson.

Thank you for another fun lesson Shino sensei. Since I’ve gotten the hang of pronouncing the different characters, I’m feeling ready to speak more sentences in Japanese! I’m well aware I may make mistakes the first several to many tries, but with your help I should be able to get it down in time and speak full sentences in Japanese more fluently as well as confidently. You’re a wonderful teacher and I appreciate your lessons very much!!!

Shino san, thank you for tonight's lesson. Though I still have a lot of studying to do, I can feel myself improving on speaking the language and knowing the hiragana and katakana characters without relying on romaji translations. I also want to thank you for being patient with me when I struggle to understand some parts of tonight's lesson and for helping me correct any mistakes I make when pronouncing some of the syllables. Lastly, It's always fun talking with you, both when going over our lessons as well as when we talk about our hobbies and interests! See you next lesson Shino sensei!!!
