Yoko-sensei is an excellent teacher.
I have had many teachers iTalki over the past couple years, and she is one of the best！
Yoko-sensei makes you feel very comfortable, is organized, and tailors material based on your needs.
I am currently studying for the JLPT N3, and she has been very helpful in identifying my weak-points and helping me improve.
I highly recommend.
