Hi, I’m Hyun Ku Lee and you can call me Dani. I’m Korean and live in Seoul. I was a product designer. But not anymore. I have many foreign friends and I like to help out people. That is why I decided to become a Korean teacher.
I'm open-minded. I met various people through 3000 lessons and I'm a very patient, friendly person. You don't have to be nervous. 😊
I think learning a language is more like physical exercise. You need to study hard, but you also need to practice regularly to get used to a new language like you got your mother tongue.
If you’re ready to get new language muscles, study with me. I'll be your personal coach and I will help you do my best. 👍

Me as a Teacher
I am a certified professional teacher. I'm teaching about 1,200 lessons every year. I have met and taught many people since I started teaching on italki. I know what kind of difficulties people from different countries have when they learn Korean. Especially in terms of pronunciation and intonation. I think pronunciation is one of the most important yet difficult parts. As I love singing I’m interested in pronunciation and vocalisation. 🎤
I emphasize once again. I'm very patient. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. It's useless stress for learning a language. I'll teach you ways to get usefully stressed. 😆
My lessons & teaching style
I use different materials for different levels. I usually give homework to practice, but don’t worry it’s not much and we can always discuss it together.
For beginners, I approach grammar because it’s essential to build up a strong basis to further progress. 📖
For intermediate students, I approach grammar as well as reading practice on a range of topics that help acquire more expressions. 🧩
For advanced students, we will learn from advanced texts, news, and videos. During the class, we will have discussions followed by writing homework. 🎮
I'm open to teaching methods. Feel free to tell me if you have any opinions. But Of course, I'll guide you in the best way.

I'm taking korean lessons from 현구 씨 and so far it has been a great experience. His lessons are useful and he is very patient. He always encouraging me to try even if I do mistakes. I'm so happy he's my teacher and I would highly recommend to anyone interested in learning korean.

As always, Hyun Ku is THE BEST! He explains things very well and is so so kind. If I don’t understand something, he’ll kindly explain it again and again and again. Also, he pushes me towards more difficult things. Class is always so much fun and time really flies by. Thanks to him I’ve learned so much in such a short time!!!!
