Hyobin appears to have prepared well what to teach me in the upcoming lesson. She tries to encourage me even if I know I make a mistake but she corrects me with a positive attitude. I feel that I learn something every time I take Hyobin's lesson.

Hyobin Sunsengnim is excellent. I've had several lessons with her now. Her teaching style is very comfortable and she provides excellent feedback. I've learned new vocabulary, grammar, and even cultural aspects from her. Highly recommend!

Hyobin is very patient and is able to tailor learning needs to meet my level. I feel challenged but not overwhelmed. She uses colorful visuals. It is mostly taught in Korean at my level, and she uses English for me only when necessary to help move the session along. I like her teaching style because it feels fun and safe to learn.
