I'm a PhD student in sociology, and I'm interested in different cultures, histories, current issues, and so much more. I love hiking, traveling, running, and reading. Can't wait to meet you all in class!

Me as a Teacher
Since I’ve had plenty of experience reading and writing in Korean, I can help you work on your academic reading and writing skills.
If you’re up for the challenge of reading books in Korean, we can definitely try it out together. We’ll pick a book, read through it, break down any grammar points you’d like to clarify, and most importantly, put them into practice by making sentences and incorporating them into conversations. The same goes for other materials too!
✏️ During our lessons, I’ll also write down what you say, suggest more natural ways to say things, and share everything with you through Google Docs, so you can review and track your progress easily.
My lessons & teaching style
🌟From absolute beginners to advanced learners: fully customized classes for everyone🌟
✅ If you're an absolute beginner, we'll start with learning 한글 and then move on to basic grammar lessons combined with speaking practice.
✅ If you’ve already started learning Korean on your own and now feel like it’s time to add some real practice, we’ll definitely practice more real-life Korean with diverse topics and corrections.
✅ If you’d like to diversify your input and expand your vocabulary, we can incorporate different materials such as articles, K-dramas, movies, or books, whatever works best for you. Along the way, we can practice all four skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing.

Another great discussion session on modern Korean history. I’m glad that with sseam’s guidance and patience I feel I’ve gone even deeper in my argumentation this time. Look forward to the next one!

Today’s lesson was wonderful as always! We started with the recent movies in Korea and then went on to discuss the journal article about the 4.3 Incident in Jeju. It’s a long article with a lot of academic terms but sseam helped me a lot with her explanation. I feel so glad that I was able to engage in a conversation like I would in a Korean university seminar. Of course still a long way to go to achieve true proficiency but I’m sure with time I could reach that goal slowly, step by step.

Today we had another great discussion based on an academic journal article in Korean about the history of 1950s. It was an informative but challenging read but with sseam’s help it all becomes much clearer. I particularly appreciate sseam’s efforts to come up with a set of class notes after class each time. Thank you so much!

Hyeongyoung's lessons are fantastic! I've had so much fun in her Korean Through Stories and Media lessons. She's kind, patient, and easy to talk to. I appreciate that she writes detailed feedback after each lesson so I can better understand the grammar and vocab I made mistakes with. Highly recommend!

Today we continued the discussion on the historical events in South Korea in late 1940s. In the beginning we had also an interesting short digression on our favourite Korean drama, My Liberation Notes. So glad that we share the same favourite!! Thanks a lot for the wonderful lesson.
