Hello! It's your Korean teacher Esther ✩⡱ I love cultures, meeting new people, working out, and watching movies and TV shows. Some of my favorite shows are The Office, The IT Crowd, Miranda, Modern Family, and more — so if you like sitcoms, we’ll definitely have something to talk about! I also enjoy watching Korean Netflix shows like Single’s Inferno, Culinary Class Wars, and The Devil’s Plan. One of the greatest things I’ve done in my life was learning English, because it truly expanded my world. Through language, I was able to travel, study abroad, meet amazing people, and build friendships across cultures. Now, I want to help you expand your world through Korean too!

Me as a Teacher

I am a certified Korean language teacher with teaching experience working with international students from different cultural backgrounds. I studied English and Global Korean Studies, and I have taught Korean to students at various levels. Because I have also experienced learning a foreign language myself, I understand the challenges language learners face. That’s why I try to create a comfortable and encouraging learning environment where students feel confident speaking Korean. My goal is to help you enjoy learning Korean while improving your skills step by step.

My lessons & teaching style

Every language starts with listening and speaking, so my lessons mainly focus on practical conversation skills. In my classes, you will learn Korean that you can actually use in real-life situations. Lessons are personalized based on your level and goals. In my lessons you can expect: ✔ Practical Korean conversation ✔ Speaking practice and pronunciation correction ✔ Useful expressions used by native speakers ✔ A relaxed and friendly learning environment Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced learner, I will design lessons that help you improve naturally and confidently. Let’s enjoy learning Korean together!
