I really appreciate Toto Sensei's teaching style. She teaches really well and is very charming! I don't feel pressured but encouraged to learn! Thank you, Sensei!
We had a great trial session where Toto taught me how to order food when I'm in Japan in two weeks. I'm looking forward to taking more lessons with her!
