Learn Korean Comfortably & Confidently — With a Psychology-Trained Tutor Taught Korean at an NGO—learn naturally and confidently with me! Hi! My name is Yena. I was born and raised in South Korea, so I'm a native Korean speaker. I have one year of experience teaching Korean. I studied Social Welfare in university and completed a Master’s degree in Psychology. I really enjoy meeting people and having good conversations—it’s one of the reasons I love teaching. Also, I love connecting with people through language. Since I’m also learning English, I understand how challenging it can be to learn a second language. With me, you won’t just memorize grammar or vocabulary—you’ll learn how to speak naturally and confidently like a real Korean! I have one year of experience teaching Korean to international staff at a foreign NGO. So I learned how to explain Korean in a way that’s clear, simple, and respectful of each learner’s pace. Many students told me that I was patient and good at explaining things in a way they could really understand. My lessons are relaxed and conversation-based. I customize each class depending on your level and goals. I focus on teaching real, everyday Korean expressions that native speakers actually use. If needed, I can also explain things in English. Most importantly, I create a safe and friendly space where you can make mistakes and practice freely.

Yena's class is always so comfortable and I can talk about anything and she will understand and help me clearly explain my ideas. Even though the topic of our conversation was more challenging today, I was able to talk a lot and learn some new words. Thank you Yena :)

Yena쌤 is so nice and patient whenever we have lessons. She asks me a lot of questions, and even on harder topics I can learn some new words. She gives me corrections too so I can see the natural way to phrase my sentences. She's awesome! :)

Today I met Yena 선생님 for the first time and we had a fun conversation about various experiences of mine. She provided feedback right away to correct my mistakes so I could review it later and asked me a lot of questions to keep the conversation flowing easily. She spoke slowly and helped me when I got stuck. It was a comfortable and helpful lesson :) Thank you 예나선생님!

She is very professional and leads the conversation naturally. It is an environment that I learn much in and would highly recommend her to anyone trying to advance their Korean!
