After I lived in Bangkok, Thailand for three and half years, I started my nomadic life, traveling mainly in Europe and America. I speak Japanese, English, Spanish and French. (Puedo enseñar japonés en español también.) I love to study foreign languages!! I also like traveling, dancing, and workout. Let's study together, and laugh a lot together!!!

I was very nervous but Atsuko-sensei was very kind and helpful. I am beginning from scratch and she really took her time to explain things to me in detail. She did everything in her teaching style, she presented material, explained, guided, asked questions, and encouraged me. I will continue to work with her and I highly recommend everyone else do so as well.

Had another good lesson with Atsuko-sensei. She's very patient, and skilful at matching her Japanese to my level, so I can enjoy hearing about what she's been up to and learn a bit about Japanese culture. The materials for the "Elementary Grammar & Conversation" course are very good too, especially in conjunction with the book.

Atsuko is very kind and always has an interesting story to tell, or a topic to suggest for conversation. She always speaks in a way that’s understandable and makes sure to rephrase if needed. She’s well organised with her shared document where she writes the new structures and words we use in the lessons.

My fiancé and I felt very engaged in Atsuko's first lesson! It was great to jump right into describing people's nationalities and occupations, and learning about negation, pronunciation, and compound sentences!

Atsuko-san was wonderful during our lesson! I am a complete beginner and was a little flustered, but she was so patient with me even during my mistakes! She is so happy and laughing with her during the lesson helped put me at ease. I look forward to more lessons with her!

Thanks, Atsuko Sensei, for the lesson. She taught me basics like greetings and country names.
