I like having conversations with him. He makes me feel relaxed and laugh. Every time I finish a lesson, I am always satisfied because I feel that I was able to do my best to communicate with a native speaker. Thanks to those experiences, I've become less nervous when I talk with English speakers. I really appreciate it!
Mineco-sensei and I have been reading 吾輩は猫である which is a book I have been very interested in for years now, but could never really understand by myself.
Mineco-sensei always prepares thoroughly for each lesson. She makes slides with the words, phrases and grammar for each passage. She also researches the cultural background whenever there's a difficult part or idiom in the text, as well as prepares some sentences for me to read outloud as a practice. We always have a chat about the passage and every single lesson is a lot of fun. I really appreciate all of the work Mineco-sensei puts into lesson prep.
Amazing tutor, very well suited to intermediate conversation, can explain well in both Japanese and English, she studies languages herself so she understands the hard parts of it, and she's very relaxed making her a perfect partner for any topic. Highly recommended.
