Personal Statement

I was born and raised in Japan and lived there until I was 27 years old. I have taken and passed level N1 of the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test), which is the highest level available.

Currently, I teach Japanese and math at an international school. In addition, I work at public schools and support physically or mentally challenged students.

Yoko was an excellent tutor for my daughter. She is very good with children, patient and kind. She went well beyond what she is required to do, and paid extra time and attention for my daughter to excel in her Math and Japanese. We feel extremely fortunate to have met her and will definitely recommend her to whoever is looking for a tutor.

My daughter really enjoys having Yoko as her Japanese tutor. Yoko is great at understanding what my daughter needs to learn in order to do her best in her Japanese class.

Yoko provided an excellent introduction to Japan, Japanese culture along with the first language lesson. She also provided some great information on where to get books to help me learn.

Yoko is great, my boys were taking Japanese lesson for the pas two years in Hawaii and they had an awesome tutor, so they were a little nervous, but as soon they met Yoko the loved her, she made all of us fell comfortable and confident. It's our first time using Wyzant and I'm very happy we got this connection. Looking forward for plenty more classes to come! Arigato Yoko!

Yoko Sensei is a very nice and dedicated teacher who helped me greatly with my Japanese studying and Japanese daily conversation. She is very willing to teach anything the student want to study. Although I've only had her for a couple times of classes, I have leaned many things from her. Chatting with her after class, or outside class (She took me to a great store where sells Japanese books!), I learned about Japanese culture and what is like to live in Japan. She also tried to use more Japanese words in our conversations to help me with my hearing and pronunciations. I really liked her teaching style and highly recommend people to take her class. Thank you Yoko Sensei!

I would highly recommend Yoko as a tutor - she is extremely kind, affable and enthusiastic and has a very approachable manner with children. She is also reliable, prompt and hardworking. She is clearly very intelligent, her communication skills are excellent, and she was flexible about the manner in which we ran lessons as well as the times of our meetings. We were only able to meet with Yoko a few times, as we relocated to Tokyo shortly after meeting her, but I felt that the lessons provided my children with a positive introduction to the Japanese language.

Thank you Yoko for the thorough and professional tutor session with my high school student for Japanese class. He learned a lot and enjoyed the session.
