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！

Today's lesson was very good. We had some interesting discussions of vacationing on cruise ships. I even got some travel tips from Sensei Mari. We made good progress on Minna no Nihongo, working through some sentence patterns that were new to me. Looking forward to the next lesson!

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。

Another great lesson with Mari-san. We continue to work through the Minna no Nihongo book 1 and making steady progress. Her interest and concern for students' learning are evident. She checks with me whether the pace is okay, always asks if I have any questions or things I didn't understand. A top-notch teacher!

Great lesson today with Mari sensei. We did free talk for a bit to discuss what we did last week. Then, we picked up where we left off in Minna no Nihongo. When we finish a section, she always checks if there were any words that I didn't understand, which is helpful. She also comes up with her own questions to supplement the book. Also, she is very friendly and takes teaching and learning seriously. It's going great!
