SakikoTutor ★★★★★ 2026-08-17 18:07:56Thank 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!
