Sugamoto is a good teacher. However, it's important to note that for Japanese, it ALL depends on what TA you get, since that's where you'll spend most of your time and practice most of the stuff. The lecture is just mainly there to teach you the new concepts, which you can already do by reading the first few pages in each chapter. So yeah, it doesn't matter if you take her or Kawanishi or whoever else...just try to get Kuroshima for a TA, she's awesome.

Professor Sugamoto is the cutest and sweetest professor I will ever have at UCLA. She has very concise and explanatory lectures on powerpoint, and lectures are lots of fun. She's very good at involving students into the lecture, and has fun activities to help learn. Take her to enjoy an excellent Japanese course!
