Sasaki-sensei is a phenomenal instructor and a lovely person. She tailored her lesson plans to my goals and desires (e.g. pitch accent & pronunciation improvements) and walked me step-by-step through everything. We covered a detailed treatment of keigo, hundreds of grammar points, and countless vocabulary words. Because of her guidance, I went from barely JLPT N3 level to passing N2 and N1 on my first attempts and from struggling to read simple manga to reading Japanese novels with little trouble! I couldn't have asked for a better instructor and I know I wouldn't be nearly as proficient as I am now if not for her.

After finishing long working hours in office and long walking distance to commute, I could hardly study Japanese in a minute. But with Miki, I could make difference. Finally, I passed JLPT N1 with her support in 2024.

I came to Japan first time when I was over 40 without knowing “arigato”. My Japanese had not improved because I had no chance. I was afraid of speaking in Japanese incorrectly. I’d tried to study Japanese, but it’s not an easy task for a middle age man. I have seen so many colleagues in office who came from overseas but could not say Japanese although they have stayed in Japan 10 years, 15years, and more than 20 years. I thought I could be like them. I found out how hard it is “studying Japanese” after work.

Luckily, I met Miki who has excellent teaching skills. She made me speak out and thinking about grammar. With her, you automatically study Japanese with pleasant atmosphere. I would not like to say other ads or testimonials like “why don’t you try”, or “it’s right time to contact”. Instead of that, I would like to recommend Miki as your Japanese teacher for the people who have similar situation like me (who should be a good wife or husband as well as do many housekeeping jobs, who have to take care children, and who must work in office) but wants to learn and improve one’s own Japanese.

Learning Japanese has been enjoyable and fulfilling thanks to Sasaki Sensei. With her guidance, I have seen significant improvement in my speaking, reading, and writing abilities. Her lessons are engaging, incorporating various examples, including funny Japanese comics, and drills that have been instrumental in helping me master grammatical structures and vocabulary. Sasaki Sensei further tailors her lessons by incorporating articles related to my interests, which we read together. Additionally, she goes above and beyond by sending a follow-up email that reviews the elements covered in the lesson. Thanks to her, I was able to pass the Japanese Language Proficiency Test Level N2 on my first attempt. I am fortunate to have such an amazing Sensei.

Sasaki-sensei is fantastic! I was assigned her through a work related program and decided to continue with her on my own once the work course was completed. She explains usages and nuances of words and grammar so clearly and provides various examples. She really cares about her students and listens to their needs to help them improve. I 100% recommend Sasaki-sensei to any leveled learner!

I felt nervous for the first couple of lessons because I'm not at ease with new people but you make me feel good and make me want to continue those courses. I feel more confident in japanese and look forward to learn more ! Thank you for your work with me over the last 6 months, you kept me motivated and gave me abilities to try this last JLPT.

Sasaki-sensei is an outstanding teacher! She brings a wonderful harmony of enthusiasm and adaptability to lessons and your Japanese learning goals. And beyond learning Japanese with Sasaki-sensei, I'm also impressed by and appreciate the wide diversity of topics she is able to contribute to lessons: from everyday life in Japan to extremely nuanced business scenarios to public policy discussions. I've worked with several Japanese teachers and can confidently give Sasaki-sensei my highest rating!

I've been attempting to self study for learning Japanese, but slowly I had been losing a bit of structure and consistency. Miki helped me regain that, and so much more. Our one-on-one meetings are not only insightful and enlightening for learning the Japanese language aswell as the culture, but fun and keep me motivated to keep studying on my own! Thanks to her, I was able to progress so much more than I would have all on my own!
