Hi, I’m Selena!
If English feels overwhelming or makes you feel shy, you’re in the right place. I’ve been teaching for almost 6 years now, and I truly love being a part of my students' journeys toward confidence. As a Language Consultant, I believe real progress happens through human connection, not just textbooks. My goal is to create a space where you can finally stop overthinking and start speaking naturally.
Think of our sessions as a conversation with a friend who gently guides your growth. As a B2 Korean learner myself, I personally know the struggle of searching for the right words, and I use my own language journey to help you navigate yours. While our sessions are friendly and comfortable, I’m serious about your results. After every class, I provide a detailed summary and feedback report so you can clearly track your improvement.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me hiking mountain trails or recharging at the beach. I bring that same "mountain-climbing" patience and high energy into every lesson. Whether you're tackling IELTS Speaking or mastering Daily English, let’s reach your fluency peak together!

Hi everyone! If you're looking for a teacher, Selena is your best choice! She explains complex concepts so well that even if you don't know much English, you'll understand and be able to maintain a conversation.

Selena is an amazing and very positive teacher! She creates a very comfortable atmosphere where you completely forget about the language barrier. Our lessons feel more like a great conversation with a friend rather than a boring class. She is very supportive, patient, and easy to talk to. If you want to boost your speaking confidence, Selena is the perfect choice!
