Misa

I love my Japanese conversations with Misa. She is so much fun to talk to. We share a common interest in food and chatted about places we've been to and what they were like, and what the Japanese restaurants are like in the places we live in. She also helped me with some children's stories I've been reading to explain the unfamiliar vocab that I couldn't get. She's very easy to talk to and we always have lots of fun chatting and laughing about various things. I highly recommend her as a teacher.

It was a really enjoyable lesson. We did some of the Genki textbook and also had a little (easy!) conversation in Japanese, which was great fun. I learnt lots of words and phrases that will be very useful for my Japanese in the future. Misa is always patient, friendly and encouraging. I can see that she is very adaptable, as she made sure the lesson was exactly what I wanted. I am also very happy that she gives me homework and provides helpful feedback.

Misa was so patient with my broken Japanese! Thank you so much, I really appreciated it! :)

I consider Misa to be the most exceptional instructor I've encountered in any structured learning environment. Misa truly stands out. Her patience is remarkable, making every learning session a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Her positive attitude is infectious and uplifting. She approaches every lesson with enthusiasm, ensuring that each step of the learning journey is exciting and filled with potential. What truly sets her apart has been her ability to guide and encourage me effectively. She was immediately able to put me at ease, a skill I think is essential to fostering a positive learning environment. Her constructive feedback is a valuable tool, and her guidance is both precise and encouraging, allowing me to see progress and build confidence. Her patience, positivity, and effective guidance have enabled me to make significant strides. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who, like myself, is a first time learner of a foreign language; she is exceptional.

My introductory lesson with Misa Sensei was enjoyable and she was friendly, encouraging and helpful.

I enjoyed class with Misa-sensei very much! She is extremely kind and encouraging, while also being conscious of teaching/guiding within my knowledge level. Speaking in a foreign language isn't so scary with Misa-sensei as the teacher :)
