Message from Yuri(o^―^o)
Currently, not only students living in Japan but also students living overseas are taking lessons from me.
Your Japanese will get rusty unless you use it whenever you can. And don't worry about making small mistakes!(^^)!
I always make sure every lesson is productive and enjoyable. 
I'm cheerful , friendly and patient (^-^)
