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 great! Mari sensei provided some extra review on verb conjugation that was tripping me up. We also had some good cultural discussions and free talk before diving back into the textbook. She is always punctual and never rushed. She always checks if I have questions. Such a great teacher!

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。

Mari sensei always has some great stories to share to make class more interesting. She brings good energy and is very relatable. Each class is a good mix of textbook and more casual discussion. Fantastic teacher!

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!
