Our Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it - take the words of our students and parents
Ben Tan, 42
Founder & Director of Benking
“I took up Japanese as a Second Language to facilitate my work with Japanese suppliers. As a professional in the import and export industry I felt it was important to not only understand the spoken language, but the cultural mannerisms of my partners.
Masako-sensei is also able to jump between face-to-face lessons and online sessions as I regularly go on business trips, and that has been extremely helpful in terms of scheduling. The classes are also more informal and conversational - this proves useful for daily conversations and not just for examination cram studies.
With various experiences and expertise after residing in Singapore for more than 20 years, Masako-sensei’s understanding of our culture, history and just the small details allows her to tailor unique and customised programs for each student and sustains our interest to continue lessons. “

“Ryoko and Masako are excellent teachers who make learning Japanese fun and engaging. Their energetic and empathetic approach to teaching creates a very comfortable environment for their students. My children, ages 7 and 9, enjoy attending their weekly CCA classes at the Tanglin Trust School, and we have seen demonstrable improvement in their spoken Japanese and literacy skills. They bring joy to teaching and I feel very lucky that my kids are learning with them!“
