    She carefully explained each example sentence and taught me alternative expressions. She also gave me plenty of practice using the sentences I had learned.

    Today, I learned "from ~ to ~, separated ~". The teacher explained concrete expressions that are easy to understand using everyday vocabulary. The teacher's lessons have an appropriate pace and useful content! I look forward to continuing with you!

  • Sakiko
    SakikoTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-17 18:07:56

    Thank you so much for guiding me through the difficult pronunciation. Thanks to Sakiko-sensei's teaching method, I've finally started to get the hang of the r-sound. I was really encouraged when you told me that my pronunciation of j, q, and g sounds is close enough to Japanese pronunciation and that's okay - it made learning feel so much easier. I'm looking forward to your continued guidance!

    Today, I studied lessons 78 to 84 from "Definitely Master It! 100 Chinese Sentences." I was amazed to discover that there was a colloquial expression that included my own name.

  • Gyousetsu
    GyousetsuTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-10 20:59:36

    The teacher talks a lot, but they always include small questions, so I'm able to practice speaking without falling behind, which is really helpful.

  • Kakui

    The tutor writes the meanings and usage of vocabulary that comes up during lessons in the chatbox and sends them to me, which is incredibly helpful when I review later. Since they teach plenty of example sentences, the explanations are easy to understand, and the lessons have become really substantive and in-depth.
