Yuki (ゆき)

I have studied with Yuki for over two years and could not recommend a better teacher! Yuki is fantastic at adjusting her teaching style and pace to the student's needs and goals. I started from a completely basic level and eventually reached my desired level of fluency quickly through Yuki's courses, feedback, suggestions, and support! I particularly enjoyed the journal exchange classes that challenged me to write in Japanese as well! I've been to Japanese language school and have taken a number of online classes but at the end of the day Yuki is still my favorite teacher and was pivotal to starting my language learning journey! I hope Yuki will be able to help you reach your goals too! ゆき先生と２年間以上勉強してきました!このアプリでゆき先生を会ってすごくよかったです！学生にとって指導のペースとスタイルを調整するのも得意です！ゆき先生のおかげで初心者ぐらい際から希望のレベルまで通過あっという間にできました！ゆき先生は日本の文化、難しい表現、分かりにくい言葉の説明も上手です。今まで日本語語学学校へ通うた経験を持っていていっぱいオンラインクラスが受けたことがありますがやっぱりゆき先生は全部と比べると私にとって最高です！よければぜひゆき先生のクラスを受けてみてください!

I have taken 80+ lessons with Yuki sensei since last year and was able to improve my Japanese level significantly. She is very professional and informative when I have language related questions (grammar, vocab etc.) At the same time, she is also extremely helpful when it comes to culture related questions. Through our journal exchanges I got to understand many cultural aspects that I was not aware of before, even though I have been living in Japan for quite some time. It is truly a pleasure to have her as my teacher and I would recommend her for anyone who is serious about learning Japanese. 先生のお陰様で、日本語で文章を書くことに自信を持つようになりました。交換日記により、様々なトピックについて討論できますので、会話の能力もより一層流暢になった気がします。今までアートや教育や日本の文化など幅広い分野での話ができて、いろいろな知識を身につけた上に、一緒に過ごした時間も本当に楽しかったです。沢山教えて頂き、誠にありがとうございました。

I had a great first lesson with Yuki-sensei. It’s been a couple months since I’ve practiced speaking with someone so I was a little nervous, but she is so patient and made me feel comfortable right away. I’m excited to have more classes with her!

Yuki is a skilled tutor who explains grammar points, new vocabulary, and cultural references clearly and with examples. I have had about 10 lessons with her so far and I look forward to each one. I was looking for help with my weak speaking skills (I'm at about N3 level), and in just a few lessons I was speaking better than I ever had before because of how patient she is when I need to stop & think. We alternate between "Exchange Journals" and "Japanese for all levels (with materials)" reading the manga Skip & Loafer/スキップとローファー. I would highly recommend taking either of these lessons as they developed my speaking & writing skills much faster than self-study.

I have studied a few lessons with yuki and she has been a great teacher! I would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Japanese.

Yuki has been very kind and patient in my lessons. We are just getting started but I am excited to continue learning from her. She does a great job at breaking down sentence structure to help me understand how to translate what I know in my native language into Japanese.
