Shino Yokomine

Shino is an amazing teacher. She grades her language brilliantly, her lessons are the perfect balance of fun and challenging. She's always happy and upbeat. Her English is amazing but she only uses it if she really really has to. I strongly recommend her!

Our lesson felt well prepared and suitable for my absolute beginner level, but allowed for us to get to know each other as well. We practiced conversational phrases and introductions, as well as some hiragana. Shino-sensei has a very clear and warm approach to teaching and made me feel very comfortable and motivated during our lesson. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn Japanese! ありがとうございます! :)

しのせんせいとレッスン楽しかったです。ありがとうございます！

I was very nervous after not speaking any Japanese for a while. I had a lesson the other day with another teacher and finished feeling very unconfident with my Japanese. But after today's lesson with Shino I feel so much better! She really makes you feel supported and gives clear explanations of grammar if you need them. A great balance of patience while you figure something out and knowing when to help. Looking forward to my next lesson already. Thanks Shino!

My trial lesson with Shino sensei was an enjoyable experience for me. She carried easy conversation in Japanese geared to my current level. I felt at ease with her because of her pleasant personality. I look forward to taking lessons with her. Thank you, sensei.

Shino Sensei never disappoints! Having a teacher like Shino is a blessing. Anyone hesitant about taking on Japanese should cast all doubts aside and grow with Shino Sensei.
