I always have a wonderful experience learning Korean from Claire. She is polite, patient, and teaches in a way that makes it easy for beginners like me to understand and respond confidently. Today was my second class, and I can already read Korean alphabets and simple words. We also had a lesson on greetings and basic classroom expressions. Claire answers all my questions with a smile and provides clear explanations that help me understand immediately.

Another lovely lesson with Claire! This time we talked about New Year traditions and the Korean zodiac and which animal corresponds to the year you were born and what this year represents. I really appreciate that she brings in current topics and real-life themes, which makes the language feel relevant and meaningful.
We had genuine conversation about where we’ve lived, how we spent New Year’s, and New Year’s resolutions, and she guided everything with thoughtful questions that encouraged natural speaking. It never feels forced or artificial, just real conversation that helps build confidence and fluency.
Claire is great at helping you apply Korean to real situations, while also gently supporting pronunciation and expression along the way. Her lessons are engaging, practical, and always enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Korean in a warm, conversational, and real-world way.

This lesson with Claire was such a great reminder of why I enjoy learning Korean. Her classes have helped me reconnect with the language in a way that felt natural, enjoyable, and energizing!
One of the things I love most about her lessons is how go-with-the-flow they are. She’s amazing at noticing what sparks interest in the moment and building the conversation around that. This time, we discovered a shared love of board games, and it was so fun to talk about something we were both genuinely excited about, including realizing we even like the same board game!
Because the conversation follows shared interests, speaking feels natural and meaningful. Claire gently guides the discussion, adapts to my level, and helps me express myself more smoothly while still keeping the lesson light and fun.
I always leave her classes feeling happy and motivated. If you’re looking for a teacher who makes learning feel personal, engaging, and genuinely enjoyable, I highly recommend Claire!

This class was incredibly useful! Claire introduces important sentence patterns and structures, then helps me use them to talk about real life, which makes everything feel relevant and practical. It’s great practice while talking about fun and interesting topics at the same time!
She’s really helping me improve conversation flow, showing me how to express the same idea more smoothly and in different ways. She adapts perfectly to my level: gently challenging me where I’m stronger and simplifying things where I need more support.
She also shared a great K-drama and K-culture resource, which I’m excited to explore. I’m very grateful for her lessons! They’re fun, supportive, and genuinely helpful for improving my speaking confidence!
