My lesson with Yasu went well. It was also a reminder of why (in my opinion) it is so important to work with a competent native speaker. I know that many websites say you can learn a language all by yourself. But, I don't think that is true. I think you need a skilled teacher like Yasu. He has been very, very helpful to my learning/understanding of Japanese.

Excellent class! Today, we worked on 〜てください and how to conjugate the verbs to create sentences. I appreciate his gentle corrections and his patience while I try to pronounce various words in a natural manner, especially ください。I tend to rush my pronunciation, and leave out sounds, so I am grateful for this class. I will continue to practice until I can say it perfectly. I am determined! :) ありがとうございました やすせんせい!

My lesson today went well. We focused on grammar, sentence structure, sentence building. Yasu has suggested a few techniques that I feel will be beneficial. I appreciate that Yasu listens to my concerns and provides support.

1st class. Have you ever watched YouTube videos of a Japanese guy nitpicking foreigners' Japanese in a friendly way. It was like that which is what I was looking for. Almost all Japanese speakers tell foreigners that their Japanese is fantastic, which is really nice, but doesn't help us improve. So doing the pronunciation lesson with Yasu sensei was time extremely well spent in my quest to sound better. Thank you!

I consider it a small victory when I understand a grammar or pattern etc a little bit quicker. Yasu has a very relaxed, supportive style of teaching. His way of teaching and the occasional small victory makes learning Japanese enjoyable. :-)

I worked on vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure during my lessons with Yasu. Today's class was productive. I believe I am making progress little by little
