Hiyori 日和

Hiyori先生 is so easy to talk to and patient! She kindly accommodates my needs and adjusts to my beginner level. Talking with her makes me feel calm and relaxed, and I feel understood and heard. I also appreciate that she speaks only in Japanese, even when I don’t understand everything. She patiently waits until I understand and explains things in a simple way. This helps me fully immerse myself in the language and learn directly from her words. 毎授業本当に楽しくて勉強になります。ありがとうございます！

As always, Hiyori 先生 is the best! Thank you for helping me (and for being so patient even though I cannot read even the most basic kanji😅).

She is absolutely wonderful! Very encouraging, and is very skillful at identifying your level and meeting you there while challenging you. She is easy to talk to, and provides good lesson planning and communication guidance. I look forward to lessons with her!

It just occurred to me that Hiyoriさん has an incredible ability to draw out (of me) some fairly complicated grammar and vocab during our conversations. I'm realizing that it's normally with Hiyoriさん that I use a grammar concept or word for the first time. These grammar concepts might be something I've heard passively, and because of the topics we speak about, I finally have the ability to attempt to use them. As a consequence, I feel so accomplished when I do so, and that's thanks to Hiyoriさん's skills as a conversationalist.

Great class. Video is about martial arts.

Great class. Learning more slang words.
