Tomoko sensei is a very patient teacher. She always tries to understand what I mean first, and only then gives the right correction, so I never feel cut off mid-sentence. In our lessons she guided me through a full presentation in Japanese, and kept asking follow-up questions so the conversation never stalled. Highly recommended for anyone who needs Japanese for work.

I have had 43 lessons now with Tomoko. She is a wonderful teacher. I feel I make progress every week and i truly enjoy every lesson. Our lessons have become something i look forward to every week.

Tomoko-Sensei covered a some material that was new and challenging. She was very patient and supportive despite my struggles.

I am so glad that the teacher tries her best to understand my goal and work closely with me to find the best study style given my goal and intention

Tomoko-san’s trial lesson was very insightful into what it would be like taking lessons from her. She clearly went over which textbooks would be used and how each class would progress from practicing with examples sentences to free role-play activities. She also spoke in a very clear and easy to understand manner and was very nice when correcting any mistakes. I look forward to taking another class with her!

Tomoko has been very good at assessing my ability and adjusting the plan to meet my goals. I feel she prepares very specific lessons that are challenging yet attainable, so I feel like I am making good progress. I am very much a beginner, but her English is excellent, so we don't miss any opportunities to improve my learning.
