Ruri T

Changed books for grammar practice and it was tough 😬 But as always, Ruri thoroughly explained everything to me so I could understand why each answer was the correct choice! Won’t make the same mistake twice now 🙂‍↕️ With the JLPT so close, I’m getting more anxious about not doing well at the exam. But Ruri encourages me so much in each class (and through the chat) which helps me a ton 🩵　 いつも通りほんんんんとにありがとうございます、るり先生 🙇🏻‍♀️

Today I made a few more mistakes than usual but Ruri was so supportive of me! Plus, by making mistakes is how you learn best 🙂‍↕️ Ruri always cheers and supports me with my Japanese studies and aids me with anything I may need, which I appreciate so much! Best teacher out there 🩵🩵

I really appreciate how Ruri 先生 takes the time to remember things that we've talked about before. I told her recently that I was going on a business trip soon and today, we went over some office vocabulary and communication. Even though I won't be going to Japan, it's fun to go over and have it in my mind so that I can use it to talk about it in the future. I was also really excited to go over the Genki II grammar this week as あげる・くれる and もらう are words that I often hear, but am not confident in using. I really liked the way that Ruri先生 broke it down and explained it for me, including some contextual usage and their differences.

One thing I really enjoyed about my class with Ruri 先生 today was that we talked about a topic I wouldn't have expected to learn about in a textbook, which was eco / environmental words and activities. I feel like some of those words are ones that I would and could use in daily life and I really liked that we went over it and got speaking practice in with it as well. After speaking practice we covered the next topic in Lesson 14 of the Genki II textbook, かもしれません。I feel like this grammar is one that I hear pretty frequently in anime but never quite understood how to use it. I'm really grateful to have Ruri 先生 guiding me as in the process of learning it, she encourages me to combine it with other grammar that I've been learning. I really notice the difference lately in being able to combine what I've learned.

いつも楽し！！We went over parts of Ch 9 in this class, I can't believe I have been learning with Ruriさん for over 7 months now. Started with Genki I Ch 3 and now we are almost finished with the textbook 🎉 Thank you for your hard work, I always learn from each class :)

What an amazing class with Ruri先生! She encourages me soooooo much and motivates me constantly!!
