Mari

Had a great lesson with Mari sensei today. We had some casual conversation about travel plans and other things then jumped back into Minna no Nihongo. She had prepared a prop and some additional exercises to go along with the chapter's material. It really helped to understand the material. Thank you, sensei!

初めてのレッスンで、先生はいつも笑顔で勉強法についていろいろなことを教えてくれて、ありがとうございました！

Another great lesson with Mari sensei! We had a good 15 minutes of free talk followed by 45 minutes of Minna no Nihongo study. I was having trouble with a particular verb form, so she made some practice sentences on the spot to supplement the book. It was very helpful. She was also very kind to remind me about a class scheduling issue that I had overlooked. She's always looking out for her students.

先生はとても親切で、日本語の発音もとてもわかりやすいです。 授業では、日本文化について説明してくださるだけでなく、さまざまな貴重な人生経験も共有してくださいます。 毎回の授業がとても楽しく、学ぶことが多いです。 先生のおかげで、毎回の授業が充実しており、学ぶ意欲がさらに高まりました。

Today's lesson was very good! We had some interesting free conversations about current events and things we've been doing. Then, we tackled the next grammar topic in Minna no Nihongo. Mari sensei was great at explaining things I didn't understand as we went through the material. We did some extra practice on the side as well. She is very flexible, reasonable and has a great personality for teaching. Highly recommended!

Another great lesson with Mari sensei! Lots of interesting side conversations about topics that came up during our Minna no Nihongo studies. It's going great!
