Yoko【ようこ】

I've had well over 100 lessons with Yoko-sensei now, and I'm very grateful for all the help she's given me, as well as the energy, enthusiasm and positivity that she always brings to our lessons. It's been very useful to talk about a wide range of subjects - and has helped to improve my vocabulary and overall Japanese significantly. I intend on continuing to take lessons with Yoko-sensei regularly, and will continue to recommend her to friends that want to study Japanese. Thank you for being a regular part of my mornings, Yoko-sensei, and I look forward to many lessons to come!

My 8-year-old daughter loves Yoko-sensei's lessons! Yoko-sensei provides kid-friendly lessons and tailors them thoughtfully to each child's needs. She is easy to communicate with, and her review documents are incredibly helpful for both my daughter and me. Her class feedback is always detailed and well-written. I highly recommend Yoko-sensei if you're looking for a Japanese teacher for young children!

Yoko san is a great teacher! In my lesson, I learned new vocabulary and grammar while having a fun and interesting conversation. I am looking forward to our next lesson!

Another exciting and motivating class with Yoko sensei! One of the great things about the classes is that I get to speak 'a lot' and actually 'use' the expressions learned. A 45 minute class just flies very quickly, and I feel more confident about speaking Japanese.

Yoko-sensei is an excellent teacher. She encourages you to speak Japanese from the lesson 1 even if you are a complete beginner. Before the lessons my Japanese vocabulary contained maybe a couple of dozen words so I was really surprised that I managed to hold a simple conversation about my job in the very first lesson, thanks to Yoko-sensei's guidance. Also as a beginner I make a lot of mistakes but sensei gives enough space for me to correct myself and if I still fail at it patiently guides me to the correct answer. These lessons are challenging enough to make fast progress and fun enough to enjoy them :)

Bought this classes for my daughter. Sofia so exited to study with teacher Yoko. She is very patient, caring and intelligent teacher. We are so lucky to have her as guide in Japan language and culture.
