She gives you a lot of chances for EC.

She's a really energetic Japanese teacher. Extremely 'genki'. She's helpful, and although sometimes she expects you to understand more than you'd probably pick up, she makes up for it by giving many chances for extra credit.

She's very hyper, very nice but a little forgetful. Gives quizes every class day and sometimes a quiz and a test. Quizes are simple if you pay attention in class. Good teacher overall

I'm not Asian and had very little to no previous exposure to Asian languages, but still found her class to be prefectly fair. As for the tutor, I thought that it was the perfect opportunity to converse with a native speaker.

She's so hyper it's funny. Usually repeats her jokes because she forgets she already told them. Very clear, might be a little intimidating at first, but just follow directions. She knows her stuff. Very trustworthy

Really nice teacher, she gave a lota extra credits. She also gave a lota quizes too, but the they aren't that hard. I worked pretty hard and got a B, but I didn't do any of the extra credits.

she is kinda hyper sometimes, but u'll get used to it, n she is very helpful n nice n "kawaii". atashi wa sensei ga daisuki da yo~ ^_^

She is an excellent teacher who cares about her students.She is cute and alot of fun.

Very yasashii sensei! I don't get it why a lot of people are scared of her (maybe because of her quizzes everyday) but she is really very kind! She cares about everybody and will help you if you go to her office. Japanese is fun with Yuki sensei!

In general I think she is a good teacher, she has very good english, and is easy to understand, however many students have a problem with her, because sometimes her explanations are limited, but i have no problems with that at all, main problem I have had is having too many abscences.

i had a really good time with her

yuki sensei is really nice & her class isn't boring.however she assigns lots of hw & for each class u miss she subtracts 10 points.but there r lots of ex credit opportunities & the tests arent that bad.quizzes everyday so be prepared.the book sucks & doesnt make any sense so take good notes. overall id recommend her if you dont mind doing the work.

Great and caring teacher. I should take her class earlier so that I could learn more of Japanese. Best Japanese teacher I ever taken.

She is the best Japanese teacher I ever taken. She cares about each every student of hers. she knows her stuff. I recomment her very highly.

Really take the time to make you understand the stuff, learned a lot from her class that I still retain after some yrs. Super funny, she use to be a tourist guid, so the class isn't all that dull. But a daily attendance is a must!!!

She is the kindest teacher I every had. She goes out her way to help students. She spent all of her office hours one week to help her students. No professors does that except Yukisensei. She is an excellent teacher who I recomment.

Very nice teacher.She knows her stuff. Very caring and helpful, but strict. A lot of extra credit. I recommend her for your Sensei.

if you are slow in understanding grammar and/or sentence structure, i won't recommend her. she knows her stuff, but she doesn't explain the "why" and "how" really well. overall, she is a very nice and helpful teacher.

Beware, she quizzes daily on 'daily phrases' and vocabulary, make sure you memorize all vocabulary, daily phrases, and hiragana. Lectures are very interesting. Study and memorize, and you will pass.

Yuki sensei = ****

Yukisensei is the kindest teacher at Mt.SAC. She is very fair and open to every students. Very helpful.I took two of other Japanese teachers' classes before, but Yukisensei is the best Japanese teacher I ever had. She seems alway happy and her classes are fun.

Yukisensei is an excellent and the best Japanese professor at Mt.SAC. She is nice and kind person. Her classes are fun and lively. She is strict but if you do what she tells you to study, you will get an A easly. I highly recommend her claases.

Yuki sensei is sweet, but she gives quizzes everyday you meet. The quizzes are english sentences which you have to translate into japanese. Work is required for sure and it's not easy to get an A. She runs out of time and therefore has to rush on her lectures, but i rated her as hot because she is challenging and helped me converse more.

Great teacher, gives lots of homework. If you do all the homework you will easily get an A in the class. Their is lots of chances for extra credit. Plus she has lots of tutors so use them. She is very busy so she can't help everyone but that is why she has tutors and tell you to use them. She has a quiz every class, don't be intimidated though.

She is very friendly fun and active. Many students like her and they are friendly to her, too. Her lecture is a little fast... Since I had 4 different Jap professors, she has totally different standards of grading with the other. For example chapter test or grammar quiz were the most important in other classes, but kanzi tests in her class.

Excellent teacher and I like her alot. she cares about her studetns and very fair to everyone. Just study what she tells you to do, then you get an A easilly. she is fun and knows the stuff well. I recommend her!!!

She is good. Her tests, quizzes and exams are hard, but itz the way that makes you learn. Plus she offers tons of extra credits. Students may get low grades on tests and exams, but on the other hand, extra credits are easy enough to help you get an A. If students failed in her class, they might not do extra credits.

Excellent sensei! I like her teaching style.She is fun and very helpful. Quizzes are easy. On the first day, she memorizes everyone's name and is very personable. Fun class. Take her!

Yuki is a very good teacher. She is very personable and caring. She is busy but she takes time for us. I appreciate her teaching very much because her class is nice and fun.

Sensei is HOT. She is always Genki, lots of energy & fun. Very helpful teacher. Alot of extra points! if you do the extra work, you will get an easy A.

Sensei yuki is an excellent educator. I learned alot from her class and I will keep studying Japanese. Sensei is very caring and helpful. Fun class, I recommentd it!

Great teacher.Sne is caring and helpful. Fun class & I learned alot of Japanese language and culture.I recomment her classes.

Great Teacher! I just finished taking Sensei Yuki's J-1 class and it was the best class out of all the classes I ever took at Mt.SAC. She is very fun and kind. She goes out of her way to help her students. I already sign up for her J-2 class. I strongly recommend her class!

Great teacher!! Fun class.Caring & helpfil.Yuki sensei is always "GENKI=cheerful & happy" Sensei gives lots of extra points that is the biggest reason that I got an A easy. Take her and you will learn the language and you will not regret.

Hey, If you are looking for a great Japanese class, take Yuki's Sensei class. she is FUN and nice who has a good heart. You will learn the lanugage & culture. I guarantee you!!

I took her class last fall and did great! She is a great teacher and is very helpful. I dont know what the comments below me are talking about becuase she is great. They probably failed because they are ignorant. If you pay attention and participate you will do fine. She has a lot of experience and will do what she can to help you. GREAT teacher!

Good teacher but she is not organized. I lost track of what she was saying so many times. Jumps back and forth with lessons a lot but you'll get used to it. Love her stories though. She's a very adorable japanese lady. I'm probably going to take her again for Jap 3!

She's really funny! Sensei McPhail is one of the best Japanese teachers I've ever had in my life. However, she is strict when it comes to cell phones ringing during class and expects you to do the work thoroughly. Her quizzes and exams are not difficult, but you still need to study hard to pass them.

She is mean, but she knows what she is doing!!!! I never would have had the career in Japan if it wasn't for her class. She is a very strict teacher but if you pay attention, do the lessons and assignments she gives your Japanese will be untouchable. I was young when I first took her class, but I have learned so much from her.

This teacher is fun but it is also very hard if u miss any class

Great teacher. Easy A if you study and do the homework. However she can talk very fast and can be difficult to understand sometimes. Luckily she gives an absurd amount of extra credit on a daily basis and the tests are a joke if you read the material. Excellent Japanese 1 teacher. Highly recommended.

Excellent educator. She is helpful, fair, warm, & most of all she is FUN.I took her advanced Japanese classes and I am going to Japan to learn more Japanese & teach English. Great thanks to her. Try her class and you will love the language and her.

I loved Yuki Sensei's class! She is a very good teacher and her class is slow paced, so she's especially good for people with no prior exposure to Japanese.Be sure to take advantage of all the extra credit she gives! She's also very easy to talk to, so don't hesitate to ask questions about anything having to do with Japanese or Japan.

McPhail Sensei is one of the best professors at Mt.SAC. She is Kind and helpful. Her class is always fun and lively. She teaches you what you need to learn. It is all up to you to study or not.

Great teachers! I am currently taking her class and she is very informative and helpful. Quizzes are straightforward and the homework is easy. She also offers a lot of extra credit. The class isn't very easy but it's definitely passable. I recommend taking her!!

Great teacher. Fun and energetic! Good sense of humor and very helpful with the concepts and homework. Ive taken her twice now and recommend her class.

I found the course to be challenging but fulfilling. The professor is extremely knowledgeable, kind and funny. This is not an "easy A" class but you learn the language and culture. She is also very good at finding students that cheat. I think in some ways she is too kind to those she catches. Good class and would have her as a professor again.

great teacher Fun class its a lot of work but definitely passable.

She really wants you to learn Japanese not just sit in class to pass. You get out of the class like any other class what you put into it. She has a real caring for the students and gives you opportunities for extra credit. Look forward to being in her class in the future.

great teacher, Tough class. She is very helpful and will help if you ask. But this is definitely a tough course. I recommend her!

Prof Mcphail is a great teacher. You can tell she really cares about her students and will do whatever it takes to help them. The class is not easy but she is there to help.

Yuki sensei is a good teacher, her class is interesting. Her tests are not that easy, and she is very strict on kanji,but she makes me work for it. Because of her I practiced kanji a lot, I think my chinese writing have improved a lot lol.
