Hello! My name is Kim Sooyoung, a passionate and experienced Korean language teacher. Iโve taught students from Japan, Germany, and many other countries, both online and offline, and I truly enjoy seeing my students grow and gain confidence in expressing themselves in Korean. My teaching style is friendly, patient, and deeply personalized โ I focus on helping each student find joy and meaning in learning the Korean language. In my classes, you wonโt just study grammar or vocabulary. Youโll learn how to speak naturally, understand cultural nuances, and communicate with real confidence. I always try to create a warm and encouraging atmosphere where students feel comfortable making mistakes an
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
The goal of my teaching is to help learners express their thoughts and emotions through language, communicate effectively with others, and build meaningful relationships through mutual understanding.
I always focus on each learnerโs individual language development and personal interests, ensuring that every lesson is both engaging and relevant.
Because I believe that each learnerโs Korean proficiency and preferred learning style are equally important, I tailor the pace and structure of my lessons to suit their abilities. When a student has a particular learning method that works best for them, I do my best to incorporate it to maximize their progress and confidence.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I teach Korean using the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach, which focuses on helping learners use the language naturally and effectively in real-life situations.
My lessons are structured in three stages to build both linguistic and cultural competence:
๐ Class Structure
15 minutes: Grammar explanation and examples
10 minutes: Vocabulary introduction and practice
10 minutes: Sentence building and pattern drills
20 minutes: Applied conversation practice using todayโs grammar and vocabulary
5 minutes: Brief review and preview of the next lesson

the psychology of educational counseling - Kyung Hee University - 2020It's about studying what kind of education should be given to children and what they can do.
I like that Soo Young teacher keeps me on track during lessons. I sometimes have a lot of questions about similar grammar or similar words that could probably make a lesson take two or three hours, but she's very good about giving me a simple answer and then steering me back onto what we're actually studying. And the lessons are also fun and engaging because the atmosphere is so comfortable. I enjoy that I get to speak, ask questions, and use plenty of Korean instead of just listening for a long time and taking notes. I look forward to the next lesson.

I'm learning a lot of Korean having fun, and even when I don't get something, Professor Kim always explains it to me in a joyful and clear way, until I fully understand. I'm so glad I have the opportunity to study and learn this wonderful language with useful tools (such as exercises, homework and different materials) and a capable guide. I've completed less than 10 lessons and I'm already seing improvement. I would recommend her to anyone willing to build solid language skills and a comprehension of the mechanisms of Korean language.

์ ์๋ ๊น uses an immersive method that models Korean language patterns and grammar structure and makes you speak, read, and interact with the Korean language. She uses a lot of repetition to maximize practice and provides immediate feedback, creating the framework for natural conversations. Her slides are very clear and her videos at the end of class slows you to review the class content at your own pace.
She goes over the homework with you so that you understand errors. Her methodology is based on active and communicative learning. And above all, she is very patient! I have made a lot of progress since I started, all of a sudden the grammar started to click. Now I feel that I understand more and more. I highly recommend this teacher.
