Meg san is such a great teacher! The material she brings to the classes are diverse and effective! Oftentimes, I have to remind myself that our lessons are completely in Japanese because I am at a point now where I can understand!

Meg先生 is very attentive, friendly, and provides a comfortable environment where it feels okay to make mistakes. I was a little nervous having my first professional lesson ever, but Meg先生 made it so easy to dive right in. I'm looking forward to more lessons in the future!
