Makoto Murohashi

I've learned with Makoto san for a month before I'm going to Japan. He prepare a real situation I may face when traveling such as order a food, asking for a direction etc. It helps me a lot when I am in Japan. Creating new experiences for me when I can speak a short conversation with Japanese. Also Makoto san is a good listener, always support his student. He makes me confident speaking Japanese. He is a very good teacher.

I have done a number of lessons with Makoto Sensei and I always find our lessons very fun and interactive. Makoto Sensei is very patient and I always learn new vocabulary during our dialogue practice. I also enjoy the materials he sends for preparation before class.

Makoto San is the best!!!!

A truly wonderful teacher who's passionate about the subject of language learning. No question is too big or too small - if you want to learn the nuances in the Japanese language and really understand context in which different phrases should be used, this is your guy!

Makoto does an excellent job of tailoring each lesson to what I want to work on. He asks me for feedback and takes my responses into consideration when preparing our next lesson. He is patient and kind and makes me feel comfortable even though sometimes it can feel embarrassing when you are trying to speak in an unfamiliar language. I always enjoy our lessons and feel like I am learning a lot.

My son was very happy about how the lesson turned out and he is eager to continue his Japanese journey with Makoto!
