I love that English is the last resort to explaining things when I don’t understand because it I learn other ways of explaining things. I’m learning much more than just the textbook. She’s so sweet and is genuine about people learning. She’s my first teacher on iTalki but I have no reason to find another teacher.

I really love our lessons so much! I never thought I would enjoy grammar this much, but it is really enjoyable to learn from such a good teacher, thank you!

Mel is without a doubt the best Japanese teacher I've ever had the pleasure of being taught by. I've done multiple lessons and Mel is always kind, supportive and knowledgeable.

Mel is really friendly and patient, and a great teacher. She uses the exercises from Genki as a base but she often modifies them to be more interesting and better for learning. She's a great teacher for practicing grammar and conversations.

another great lesson, thank you for all your continued support in my studies!

Another excellent lesson! I really have such a nice time with Mel. She breaks down each lesson into my specific needs and really knows how to push me to remember the vocabulary and grammar. I feel as though I am improving each time we meet!!
