Yuka

今日のゆかさんとの会話はとても楽しかったです！彼女はとても楽しくて元気な人で、話していると楽しいです。次に会える時を本当に楽しみにしています！ありがとうございました！

I just completed a 5-lesson package with Yuka-sensei, and I highly recommend her! I'm a beginner in Japanese and have a hard time holding even a basic conversation, but Yuka-sensei's patient, enthusiastic, and caring personality helps me do my best. Specifically, Yuka-sensei has a great understanding of the needs of a beginner. When she speaks in Japanese, she articulates very clearly, and if there is a word she thinks I might not know, she says the English right after she says the Japanese. That way, I learn the Japanese word naturally. She also uses hand gestures and other non-verbal cues to help me understand. Additionally, I like that when I'm speaking Japanese, Yuka-sensei will recast what I said but in a more clear, natural way. Like, "Yes! That's what I was trying to say!" Yuka-sensei is an amazing teacher!

Yuka sensei has the magic making people comfortable to speak Japanese while with confidence. It’s always a great delight having this 30-min of practice every time to learn how the native speaker think and speak.

Always appreciate Yuka’s flexibility - was so happy we could continue our lesson now that I’m feeling much better and traveling again. Thank you!’

It was a great lesson! Very casual and conversational. I look forward to our next one!

ゆかさんはいつも優しくてクラスは楽しかったです！
