Hi! I'm Joon, a certified Korean tutor with 7+ years of experience and over 1,200 hours teaching online. My lessons focus on practical speaking skills rather than grammar rules, helping you build sentences easily and speak Korean naturally.
Having learned languages like English, Turkish, and Spanish myself, I understand the struggles learners face. I design lessons that are intuitive, stress-free, and engaging.
I also develop interactive materials such as visual slides, real-life audio, and structured exercises, providing review slides and practice audio after every session. My goal is making Korean fun, easy to learn, and practical for real conversations.Me as a Teacher
I've taught students of all levels through 1:1 online lessons and language exchange groups, helping them build confidence in everyday conversations.
My lessons emphasize interaction. Instead of traditional, text-heavy methods, I use visual slides I designed myself, along with audio recordings, to keep students engaged and motivated.
I’m always thinking about how to make learning Korean fun, immersive, and practical. I regularly look for new ways to motivate students, designing lessons that are structured yet flexible, ensuring steady progress without boredom.
✅ If you don't see a time slot that works for you, feel free to message me and I’ll be happy to help!My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is all about speaking confidently from the start. Using pattern-based learning, students quickly build sentences like “커피 마셔요” (I drink coffee) and gradually expand them into longer sentences.
I use a method where learners master basic sentence patterns first and then expand them gradually by swapping words and adding new details.
Key features of my lessons:
✔ Speak from day one with simple, practical phrases.
✔ Use pattern-based learning for natural sentence building.
✔ Interactive materials: visual slides, audio practice.
✔ Customized for your goals—daily conversation, travelMy teaching material

Today was so much fun. We had gone to a concert over the weekend so wave some lessons today and the next meeting going over what we saw, what we bought, how we enjoyed it. Really good applicable, conversational language use. The best part was tying in and using our existing language set with some new vocabulary words to tie it all together.

Another great lesson. We practiced vocabulary and grammar using experiences from a recent trip we took. Really a lot of fun!

I’m very grateful to have Joon as my Korean tutor.
I’ve had several tutors before, but Joon is by far the best! He is very patient, gentle, and understanding. He helps me feel that it’s perfectly okay to learn at my own pace and that it’s okay even if I make mistakes. This kind of support means so much to me as an adult learner. Learning as an adult is not easy, but Joon is always patient and understanding. I never feel pressured in our lessons, instead I feel encouraged and motivated every time.
I like Joon’s teaching style, it’s warm and thoughtful and creative. He always find interesting ways to teach me Korean. We even play games to learn Korean vocabulary, listen to Korean songs, and watch Kdrama clips, which makes studying so much more fun!
Thank you Joon, for your hard work and kindness. Learning Korean with you is never boring, it’s always fun. I really appreciate you! Really the best! I’m excited to become very good at speaking Korean soon! Thanks Joon!

We’ve really enjoyed learning with Joon. We first picked Joon to prepare for a vacation trip to South Korea. And it was awesome!! And we want to go back so we have continued lessons with Joon. He is an excellent teacher! He incorporates media into his lessons with an emphasis on matching our likes to make it interesting. We have learned a tremendous amount and we look forwarding to continuing this journey with Joon!
