I have been taking Japanese lessons with Demi for about three months, primarily to prepare for a trip to Japan. Starting as an absolute beginner with no knowledge of hiragana or katakana, I now feel I have a solid grasp of the language’s structure to some extent. There’s still a long way to go, but it’s incredibly rewarding to understand even simple conversations while watching my favorite anime.
Demi is flexible in her teaching approach and adapts the course material to suit individual goals. She also goes beyond scheduled sessions, providing valuable feedback offline. If you put in the effort, you will definitely see results. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their Japanese!

Demi was very helpful. It was awesome that she speaks Chinese and English so I could practice my Chinese and make connections between Chinese and my Japanese learning. She also was focused on solely helping me work on my goals, not learning a bunch of superfluous nonsense. So far so good.

Thanks for another lesson which was relaxing and fun as always! Being friendly is a great quality of her and she teaches me many curious things about China which I do not know even if I have been there many times now! See you next time!

Demi was very prepared and ready to help guide me through my beginner level struggles. She was very patient and took time to thoroughly explain many topics. Her professionalism was very inviting and she helped me break out of my shell quickly. Demi is awesome!
