Hello! My name is Kim Sooyoung, a passionate and experienced Korean language teacher. I’ve 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 — I focus on helping each student find joy and meaning in learning the Korean language. In my classes, you won’t just study grammar or vocabulary. You’ll 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 learner’s individual language development and personal interests, ensuring that every lesson is both engaging and relevant.
Because I believe that each learner’s 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:
🕐 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 today’s grammar and vocabulary
5 minutes: Brief review and preview of the next lesson

💖 Korean curriculum to complete Korean 💖 Korean Grammar 1,2 - ppt
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.

I learned a lot in Soo Young Kim's classroom! She is a very encouraging teacher and I love that her class has a strong structure. I could practice listening, speaking, grammar, and reading all at the same time! It was a lot of fun!

선생님 김 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.

Our first class was great. We introduced ourselves and then went through a lesson presentation she had prepared. It covered a specific grammar point, notes about usage, example sentences, practice Q&A, sentence building prompts, and a reading passage with audio to review after class. She then assigned me some homework to review and practice the grammar point. She was friendly and patient as I struggled to be creative haha. I already booked a second lesson :) 감사합니다!

I had a great first lesson. She assessed my proficiency and gave me a clear plan going forward. Having grammar explained by a human will always be better than a computer. ᅟI'm excited for the next lesson. 감사합니다!
