Heeyoung 선생님 is a great teacher! Thanks to her help and patience, I can now communicate simple messages in Korean, and read Korean characters (which was not successful for a long time without her). Among all her good qualities as a teacher, I especially appreciate her for adjusting the learning pace for me and making sure that I can use what I learned before moving on. Her grammar explanation is also very clear and easy to understand. It’s helpful that she understands the difference between Korean grammar and English grammar (and Japanese grammar) from her teaching and learning experience, and knows what Korean learners find difficult.  英語ができる日本人の方にもおすすめの先生です。

Heeyoung really is a great teacher. Yes she is patient, engaging, encouraging, and all the good stuff any teacher should have, but what I feel sets her apart is that she is totally genuine and down-to-earth as a person. You can tell she honestly cares about her students progress and reaching their language goals. I could feel it in her intro video, which is ultimately what led me to scheduling lessons with her and I wasn't disappointed. And neither will you be!

My lessons with Heeyoung are always fun and interesting. Whether it is a grammar lesson or free talking, our lessons are helpful, and I always feel comfortable speaking Korean and making mistakes 🙊 my speaking confidence has grown significantly since I started lessons with Heeyoung. The content is fun, and Heeyoung really makes an effort to get to know you and your interests so that we talk about things of interest to myself. It really feels like I’m just talking to a friend at times, making it feel even more natural and more ‘fun’ than feeling like a ‘chore’ having a lesson. 감사합니다 선생님
