Hello, my name is Hoyeon. I majored in computer science and worked as a software engineer at an electronics company. Realizing how fulfilling it could be to understand and teach languages, I studied Korean language education online and started teaching Korean on italki. I never imagined I would make it this far, but I'm glad I'm on the right track and enjoying every moment of it. When it comes to learning languages, I believe we can learn more naturally by reusing and reorganizing sentences or phrases we've heard before. It's all about repetition. I rarely leave reviews. If there's something I need to tell my students, I address it during class. Thank you.

As always, 선생님 and me had good conversations including the grammar points which I am recently working on and he is explaining everything patiently and well. It’s always enjoyable for me and I am already looking forward to my next lesson :)

I’m really enjoying learning Korean, and I can clearly see how much progress I’ve made since starting. The lessons are thoughtfully prepared and designed to stretch me just enough – challenging but never overwhelming – which keeps me motivated. There’s a great balance between reading, speaking, listening, vocabulary, and grammar, and the homework is always varied and reinforces what we’ve covered. I really appreciate is how personalised each session is. They match my level of understanding and aim to improve the areas where I’m struggling, and the lesson content is adjusted accordingly. I never feel like we’re just going through a textbook – it’s all tailored to help me improve and gain confidence. The explanations are always clear, and I feel comfortable asking questions, even when I’m unsure or make mistakes (of which I make quite a few!) I’ve noticed that my confidence in speaking has grown a lot, and I’m starting to understand more and more. I always look forward to my lessons.

Hoyeon-shi is a great teacher. He is very good at explaining grammar in a simple way, and he makes you feel at ease when speaking.
