Satoko

Simply brilliant. Amazingly well prepared - got challenged to listen in Japanese and speak　in　Japanese plus could see words and images to assist at the same time. One of the best teachers and lessons I've ever had. Thanks Satoko san. See yo u soon

I've been studying with Satoko-sensei for a while now, and she's always on time, well-prepared, and makes a document for me with any words or phrases I don't know. Lately, she's also been finding and giving me homework to help me prepare for the JLPT. Thank you for always working so hard! これからもよろしくお願いします！

I just had my first session with this tutor, and it was great! Beforehand, I sent my approximate Japanese level, a list of topics I would like to talk about, and a list of current study materials. I was given a theme for our conversation picked from the list of topics I gave. I was also given a list of questions. These questions helped me prepare for the session as there were some specific terms that I wanted to use. It also helped calm my nerves since I had an idea of where the conversation was going to go. I was nervous before our session since it was our first one, but she was very fun and my nerves quickly subsided. She was good at continuing the conversation when I didn’t have much to say. Whenever I was thinking about how to say something, she would wait patiently for me to finish before repeating what I said with corrections which was very helpful. She created a friendly environment in which I felt comfortable making mistakes. I am very happy with my experience.

日本語を話せることが嬉しくて、やっと勇気を出してテレビ画面以外の誰かに伝えることができました。 さとこさんは私の話をよく聞いてくれて、会話の言葉を教えてくれました。待った甲斐があり、30分のレッスンがとても気に入りました。さとこさん、ご協力とご指導ありがとうございました。

いつも通り素晴らしかったです。さとこ先生、ありがとうございました！

Great as always, highly recommend.
