I had a great trial session today, she was attentive and made sure to ask questions about my experience with Japanese as well as get to know me a little. She gave a great explanation about Japanese cultural differences and the difference ways Japanese is used depending on each person you talk to, she also provided some great material to explain the lesson that I could read. Im excited to start my formal classes with Sakura.

I am very impressed with the punctuality and comprehensive lessons that Sakura provides. Not only am I learning the language, but there is a focus on culture that helps me understand why Japanese people may understand situations and behave differently than me in ways I would not have understood on my own. I am looking forward to learning more!

I just completed my first lesson with Sakura. She explained in excellent detail what “Japanese” phrases are ok to use and more importantly which ones are not! I always thought “genki desu ka” was a polite greeting. Wrong! Sakura enlightened me on the Japanese culture and the ways it affects their language and communications. As she is a native Japanese woman, she shed so much light on why the Japanese say (or don’t say) things in different ways. I loved the lesson so much that I’ve signed up for two lessons a week. I highly recommend her. She is kind, professional and very interesting!!!

Sakura sensei provides an insightful exploration of Japanese culture and its deep connection to the language. I've learned so much about the subtle nuances of Japanese and come to realize how important it is to understand the cultural mindset to truly speak like a native. I'm excited for the future classes ahead!

My first session with Sakura was interesting and informative! She explained some differences between American and Japanese communication culture and assessed my level. I’m looking forward to our next one!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Business Hours: 10 am to Midnight(Mon-Sun) An extra fee is required for out-of-business hours. You can take my class online by Skype if you are in the other states, because I am currently in NYC. I could travel to meet up to you if you were in NYC. However, to be honest, my program on line is totally the same as the one on one in person because I teach with electrical files. No worries! Please take a look at the answer to the next question, "What is your typical processes with can new customer? The rate is lower but the quality is much higher than the other tutors. The earning money is my secondary demand. The primary demand is to see the improvement how my students would get better and better their skills under my own program and they would achieve their goal at the end. I would be happy to see it! That is my satisfaction to work hard for them.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The approach of teaching Japanese language is different from the others. I provide the materials which general textbooks don't cover, and are useful and practical to communicate with local Japanese people. Please contact with me! I will explain more the details. I have the over 600 electrical materials on Microsoft Words, Excels sheets, PDFs and etc. which I created on my own way and links and scans. I can share them all with you with no charge. I can provide the additional materials which you could be easier to understand grammars compared to just studying with a textbook. You need a computer to take my class when you take it on line. You just need a pen and a notebook.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have enjoyed teaching people since I had experienced as an English Instructor for 5 years in Tokyo. At that time I taught around 100 students from PK, elementary school to middle school who challenge to pass the exams for admission to high schools. Additionally, I have worked as a Tutor for a Business course at my community college for 2 years in US. At a College, I helped the students as a Japanese Private Tutor.
