Keiko
Patient and Knowledgeable Japanese.
I have been teaching Japanese more than 9 years including helping Bard Japanese Professor for 1 year. I also have a certificate for teaching Japanese to foreigners. And some students have passed N1 which is the most difficult test. All the students, who I have taught, have really enjoyed my classes....

Jeanne B. from Tewksbury, MA
Keiko is a native Japanese speaker and really enjoys teaching her language. She is very patient with my teenager: they do a lot of talking in Japanese (some English) during the session. We both enjoy her as a person, as well as a tutor. I would highly recommend her for anyone interested in learning Japanese!
Bill C. from Malden, MA
I have taken several Japanese programs and Keiko-sensei if by far the best. If you are a serious student and want to learn I HIGHLY recommend her.....
Douglas L. from Manchester, NH
We have been seeing Keiko for tutoring for a few months now. She has been a great tutor. She is always prepared, and never rushes us out the door after one hour. She is always available for any questions though e-mail. We have thoroughly enjoyed having her.
Elizabeth D. from Haverhill, MA
I am very fortunate to have found Keiko-San! She is an absolute delight to work with, really flexible with lessons and scheduling, and is really helping me to fill in all the "gaps" that I have in my Japanese from years of studying on my own. If you're in a situation like me where you've never taken classes, it's great to be able to just work on the things that you need to. So, in short, I offer my unconditional recommendation and look forward to continuing my studies.
Kenneth H. from Amesbury, MA
Keiko san has a very good teaching method as well as a great personality. She is patient and enjoys teaching her language to others.
Brian F. from Lowell, MA
Keiko is straight to the point and always waiting at the door when you arrive. As soon as you sit down, she goes right into the lessons immediately. I wasn't expecting to learn to read hiragana so fast! She will definitely push you, that's for sure! If you're given homework, she will not forget so make sure you do it! If you're looking for a tutor I recommend you pick Keiko.
Taratip J. from Winchester, MA
Keiko is an amazing and serious teacher. She prepares materials tailored to what the student lacks. She also helps in motivating me to study hard. I would recommend her to others.
Adam S. from Peabody, MA
Keiko is a fantastic teacher. She is very helpful and she adapts what and how she is teaching based on each students needs. I highly recommend her if you're just starting out or if, like me, you have had some instruction in the past.
Sarah Y. from Lexington, MA
Keiko is a skilled tutor to whom I owe a great deal! She always comes in on time and prepared with dialogues and vocabulary for me to study. She's always encouraging me to talk more, and I've felt not only my knowledge of the language grow, but also my confidence to use it. When I'm taking time to phrase something, she is very patient, and always lets me finish before offering advice and correcting my mistakes. Not only that, but she always responds to my questions outside of lessons by email. Kind, professional, and an excellent teacher!
Justin B. from Lynn, MA
Keiko has a genuine interest and passion for sharing her language and culture. I would strongly recommend her to others.
Mark B. from Woburn, MA
Keiko is an amazing tutor! She has taught my son so much in just the past couple of weeks. I highly recommend her to a beginner or a slightly more experienced person.
Gloria N. from Auburn, NH
Keiko is an excellent teacher. Her lessons are thorough, well-planned, and very challenging. She keeps in good communication with her students before and after class and is available for questions. Her teaching style is professional but friendly. She is very approachable and clearly enjoys her teacher/student relationship. She is good at discerning where a student is at and holds the bar high enough for me to reach in order to grow but not so high that it is unattainable. I've learned an amazing amount in just a few lessons thanks to her skills in effectively teaching the Japanese language.
Ben L. from Pelham, NH
Keiko is very a serious teacher. To start she waited at the door to receive student to arrive. Right away she gets into the teaching, no time wasted. She has prepared material to her best estimate level, plus more. Only the 1st lesson but I learned a lot already, will see how it goes.
Dan H. from Andover, MA
Keiko is a fabulous teacher. She has a love for teaching and the Japanese language that really comes through in her lessons. Keiko is professional, very punctual and very patient. She is extremely accessible and always willing to answer questions. I am grateful to have a person of such caliber working with me as I attempt to learn Japanese for a trip I am taking this summer. I'd recommend her without a hesitation!
Diane A. from Ipswich, MA
My daughter and I searched high and low for 3 months, tried different tutors and classes. Keiko is the best. Very smart, very clear, easy to reach, on time and a great teacher. I have recommended her to others and will continue to do so!
Kari K. from Bedford, MA
Keiko is an amazing tutor! As a beginner, her teaching style makes the material easier to understand and I feel that I am able to take in the concepts. Her teaching style also gives me more confidence in myself and motivates me to to practice hard. I feel confident that with practice and help from her that I can learn Japanese and hopefully be able to work and live in Japan one day. I truly loved my tutoring session with her and am so happy that I found such a great tutor!
Marjie C. from Concord, MA
My granddaughter and I are having a great time with our Japanese tutor. Japanese is a difficult language and I am delighted that my granddaughter, age 5, is learning so quickly. Out tutor is great!
Darlene O. from Andover, MA
Keiko has helped my daughter become a better communicator in Japanese. During lessons Japanese language was used as much as possible with limited English as necessary.

As some one who has always had trouble with teachers in the days I went to school, Keiko san has easily be the most fun, exciting and enthusiastic instructor I've met. I look forward to the classes!
