Hello. 同学们好! Hi! I am a language teacher with 15+ years of experience, fluent in English and Mandarin. In today’s AI-driven learning environment, learners need context, nuance, motivation, and guided practice—areas where human instruction still excels. I use French, German, Spanish, and Japanese materials confidently, focusing on reading, interpretation, and diction. For Korean, I specialize in adult learners (40+), teaching practical skills for daily life, and also adapt lessons for children and teens. The language learning market isn’t disappearing—the nature of demand is changing. I help learners navigate it with clarity.

Wonderful teacher. Explains well and makes learning fun. He can also use clever examples from many languages, which is very handy if you have a familiarity with French, Chinese, Japanese, German, etc.

Discovering 태원샘 has been one of the most rewarding parts of learning Korean and I’m profoundly grateful for his guidance. When I started the year, I had a decent grasp of vocabulary—but now, I can hold basic conversations with confidence. My ability to conjugate across tenses and switch between casual and polite speech has improved dramatically. 태원샘’s teaching style is exceptional. He knows exactly when to push me and when to let me explore on my own. Whenever I hit a roadblock, his calm and thorough explanations help me break through. He never gives up until I truly understand the concept. Beyond grammar and vocabulary, 태원샘 enriches each lesson with cultural insights and lifestyle tips that deepen my appreciation for Korea. His sharp ear for pronunciation helps me sound natural and authentic. He’s not just a teacher—he’s a mentor, and I’m so lucky to have learned from someone so committed and skilled. Thank you, 태원샘, for everything!

Cono cada clase, muy dinámica y ligera. Cada encuentro va a mejor. Poco a poco vamos incorporando nuevas palabras clave, y hacerlo progresivamente ayuda a asimilar los nuevos conceptos.

Thanks to the care and effort I received in 선생님’s lessons, I was able to build a confidence in my Korean skills. That confidence not only improved my language ability, but that same confidence carried over into helping me secure my first big job! (Plus the Korean skills on my resume don’t hurt haha) I’m truly grateful for 선생님 and look forward to our next lessons.

This was my 1st class of etymological Korean. It was very interesting and insightful. I learned a great deal in a short time and I look forward to our next session.
