Very responsible and attachable but a bit too strict. Have homework every class though it's not included in the final grades, and very frequent quizzes&exams. If you know nothing about Japanese this course can be too fast for you.

Excellent and cheerful professor. Very approachable, cares about students, and also very responsible. The workload is not heavy, and you would get an easy A if you finish homework on time and memorize vocabs. I would definitely take her course again!

Great prof, you need to spend half an hour every night doing homework, but if you do the course itself is pretty straightforward and easy. Gives great feedback, funny and cares for the course, great teacher overall.

If you're interested in Japanese and willing to take at least a 1/2 hour a day to do her homework (which is mandatory), you'll find her an interesting teacher, who has fun doing it. I'm in second year now, and she's the only teacher I've learned from (every other course has been just learning from textbooks).

A super awesome sensei!!!!! My favourite teacher at Queens! She is a language teacher actually put her heart and time into teaching, unlike many others, who don't care whether the students are doing well or not! She actually gives out homework everyday and hand back the homework to you the day after!!(others dont)I learn a lot from this course!!!!!

Fun language learning style - Japanese like. She's very approachable and friendly and open. Tests every week, good for language learning. Very particular and precise about grading, lose marks for anything out of place. Not a bad thing, but good to know. Overall: a fun class that reminds me of the good old days of high school

Very friendly, helpful, and approachable. Always in a cheerful mood, and her class isn't hard as long as you do your work and learn/memorize things at the same speed they are taught.

Great teaching style for learning a language. Interesting and helpful! I don't think she picks up favoriate students neither, the marking are all based on quizs and exam. The only part she would mark by herself - oral exam and speech, are only a little portion of final grade, how come she could be unfair on marking? anyway, I like Aoki sensei!

I love her! A really great prof for anyone looking for a good start in learning this language. She uses class time very effectively and really drills the words and grammer into your head. I didn't think she picked favorites at all...and since all the tests are based on memorization, I don't understand how she can be "un fair" in her markings.

She picks favourites considering a smaller class size. Her teaching skills are unclear.

Has a difficult time understanding questions and is not very receptive to students' concerns. Very disappointing that a school such as Queen's would hire a prof more concerned with grading than transferring knowledge to students. Don't take her courses!

She's really nice, funny and ~kawaii~. She teaches interactively so make sure you go in the class prepared. hmk is easy. I don't agree with the "a lot of memorizing", just watch a lot of anime so you'll know some words already.

Her class is always fun and interactive, but there's a LOT of work and memorization. Know what you're getting into!
