I appreciated the first lesson in this trial a lot! I was very nervous about being accidentally disrespectful and speaking improperly or rudely, so the lesson about how much respect is integrated into Japanese culture really helped me understand better. I am very appreciative for the passion and willingness to teach Japanese while preserving the culture so well. Thank you so much!

Overall she was great, she was professional, on time, friendly, and she was cooperative. I have already been studying for a couple months now and in our trial lesson I learned a bunch of cultural situations where certain words are used that is never mentioned in textbooks. If you want to truly learn Japanese, I really recommend Sakura Ryuzaki. I Intend to keep learning and moving foward.

I had my first lesson with Sakura and she really listens to your questions and guides the lesson toward your goals. I'm learning about Japanese and how to use it in real situations with my Japanese guests. I have been studying for a couple of months on duolingo but Sakura answers all my questions and is honest when I am making a faux pax in my language. She describes subtle social qualities that make me feel much more confident in speaking Japanese even though I am just a beginner. She's flexible in the lesson but not too flexible so you don't get too far off track. I was nervous about trying to learn with a tutor but Sakura makes it fun!

Sakura is very punctual and responsive in organizing the lesson. Although I only had a trial session with her so far but she is well prepared, and she is willing to introduce not only Japanese but Japanese culture as well.

Coming into the Japanese Language I wasn't sure how to feel about handling a lot of the confusion dealing with Hirana Kitagama, and kanji, Or how itzuchi works. Coming from the knowledge of How American English speakers are, it is as Miss Sakura said "An Entire 180." Overall the trial Helped figure out What I know, what I am going to struggle on, and The Directions that we will heading For our Next Lessons. If you really want to understand Japan Language as a whole I recommend Sakura! So from here on out, let's do our best!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Business Hours: 10 am to Midnight(Mon-Sun) An extra fee is required for out-of-business hours. You can take my class online by Skype if you are in the other states, because I am currently in NYC. I could travel to meet up to you if you were in NYC. However, to be honest, my program on line is totally the same as the one on one in person because I teach with electrical files. No worries! Please take a look at the answer to the next question, "What is your typical processes with can new customer? The rate is lower but the quality is much higher than the other tutors. The earning money is my secondary demand. The primary demand is to see the improvement how my students would get better and better their skills under my own program and they would achieve their goal at the end. I would be happy to see it! That is my satisfaction to work hard for them.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The approach of teaching Japanese language is different from the others. I provide the materials which general textbooks don't cover, and are useful and practical to communicate with local Japanese people. Please contact with me! I will explain more the details. I have the over 600 electrical materials on Microsoft Words, Excels sheets, PDFs and etc. which I created on my own way and links and scans. I can share them all with you with no charge. I can provide the additional materials which you could be easier to understand grammars compared to just studying with a textbook. You need a computer to take my class when you take it on line. You just need a pen and a notebook.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have enjoyed teaching people since I had experienced as an English Instructor for 5 years in Tokyo. At that time I taught around 100 students from PK, elementary school to middle school who challenge to pass the exams for admission to high schools. Additionally, I have worked as a Tutor for a Business course at my community college for 2 years in US. At a College, I helped the students as a Japanese Private Tutor.
