Urumi

Urumi is so sweet and patient! She is the first teacher that I have done on this website and already two classes in, I have learn so much than I did in the three months I was trying to self teach myself. I am new to learning Japanese and she has been so helpful on helping me grow my vocabulary, reading and speaking. I love that she always speaks in Japanese for majority of the class and she writes down all the vocabulary that you don't recognize when she talks to you. It is super helpful to review after her class. I look forward to growing more in her class and I hope I can reach conversational level soon! Highly recommend Urumi!

She's very sweet and fun to talk to! She does her best to meet each student's needs and wants. Also, her pronunciation and intonation are very clear, so it's very easy to understand! Whenever I say something that doesn't sound natural, she would tell me the natural expressions and correct words. She is amazing! I highly recommend her :) 우루미상 너무 스윗하시고 대화할 때 재밌어요! 각 학생들의 목표라던가 집중하고 싶은 부분들이 있을 때 그거에 맞춰 잘 도와주세요. 그리고 발음이랑 억양도 너무 깔끔하셔서 알아듣기도 굉장히 쉬워요! 제가 부자연스러운 표현을 쓰거나 상황에 적절하지 않은 단어를 쓸 때 자연스럽게 고쳐주시는 것도 좋아요. 우루미상 강추합니당 :)

Had a trial with Urumi-sensei and it was fun! I felt the conversation kept moving despite my mistakes and she helps me record words I got stuck on. Looking forward to the next lesson. :)

Urumi gave a great lesson and asked lots of really good questions about how and where I wanted to focus my studies. After getting to know each other a bit, she asked a lot of open questions so that I had plenty of opportunities to speak. Her pronunciation is also fantastic, so will be perfect for people that aren't so confident with their listening yet. レッスンはめっちゃ楽しくてうるみも頑張ってくれたのでとても満足。italkiなら結構新しい講師なんですがちっともそう感じない！機械があれば、うるみのレッスンを受けるこたは勧めます！

I had my first full lesson with Urumi-sensei and she's super fun lol. I usually worry about not preparing much in advance like questions and topics, but that was not a problem. We shared a lot of similar interests like K-pop, cosmetics, and such that made the time go by fast!

I had an amazing lesson, and will be definitely scheduling another lesson. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn
