I can not say enough nice things about Tama-san. She was so understanding and communicative. She really listens to what your learning style is and provides the support you need to be successful. I am so thankful that she was able to meet with me and intend to continue our lessons in the future. 11/10 Wonderful experience!

Tama-san is an incredibly informative, encouraging, and patient teacher. I felt very comfortable making mistakes and asking her to repeat things if I wasn't able to understand, and she was very enthusiastic throughout the entire lesson. Would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Japanese!
