I am Korean and I am fluent in both Korean and English. I spent a total of five years living in the United States, first from ages 4 to 6 and later from 13 to 16. These experiences helped me build a strong foundation in English and become comfortable in different cultural environments. I am currently studying at an international school in Kazakhstan. I have a strong interest in art and fashion, and I truly enjoy meeting new people and having meaningful conversations. My friends often describe me as someone they can talk to easily and feel comfortable around. I believe these qualities allow me to create a welcoming and supportive environment when interacting with others.

Me as a Teacher

Many people have a good understanding of English grammar and vocabulary, but still feel nervous or shy when it comes to speaking with others. I want to help students overcome that fear and build their confidence. My goal is to support learners in becoming more natural and self assured when they speak English. By creating a comfortable and encouraging environment, I help students express themselves more freely and develop the confidence they need to communicate with ease.

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons are centered around topics that my students are genuinely interested in. I create a list of engaging topics so they can choose what they want to talk about, which helps make each lesson more enjoyable and meaningful. I guide conversations in a natural and comfortable way, helping students keep the discussion flowing without feeling awkward or pressured. As we talk, I introduce useful expressions and help students learn how to sound more natural in English. To keep lessons fun and interactive, I also include simple and engaging speaking activities and games that encourage students to participate and build confidence while enjoying the process.

Other - English conversations and expressionsHigh schoolI conducted an after-school program at Saerom High School, where I taught English conversation and practical expressions to students interested in improving their language skills. Through guided discussions on selected topics, I encouraged active participation and communication. As a result, the students developed greater confidence in using English.
