Lee Hyun Ku

Classes with Hyunku are always fun but also very well structured. He is a demanding teacher with a lot of warmth and always supports their students. He is very flexible and always adjust the speed of learning and levels to your current life situation.

Very friendly and comfortable environment, understanding teacher! Assigns helpful homework, gives feedback on any mistakes you make, and is very flexible with lessons, homework, any class date changes, etc. I have been learning with him for more than a year now and my grammar, overall Korean level, and speaking confidence has increased a lot!

Hyun ku rocks! We’ve been having classes for a while. Working with him has really accelerated my learning. He’s so flexible. I usually come in with topics/grammar that I want to learn and he’s able to effectively help me study them. When I don’t have a topic in mind, he’s always prepared to give me one. I especially appreciate that he mainly speaks and explains concepts to me in Korean whereas some other teachers tend to mainly speak in English. He’s learned about my interests and even tailors conversations/example sentences to incorporate them! He’s very encouraging when I speak and corrects me in constructive ways by showing me more natural methods to explain my thoughts. With his help, I feel more confident when conversing with natives in my area. I look forward to our next class. Choose this teacher if you need help—you won’t regret it.

현구 선생님은 인내심이 많고 친절하며 항상 제 수준에 맞게 배울 수 있도록 도와주십니다. 교사로서 그의 뛰어난 전달 능력과 열정은 제가 한국어를 배우는데 큰 도움이 됩니다. 또한 그의 긍정적인 태도는 수업 분위기를 밝고 활기차게 만들어줍니다. 선생님 덕분에 매 수업이 즐거우며, 한국어 실력 향상 뿐 아니라 자신감도 갖게 되었습니다. 또한 제가 인간적으로 매우 존경하는 분입니다. 앞으로도 현구 선생님과 함께 더 많은 것을 배우고 싶습니다.

Easy to understand. Friendly. Taught at a level I could understand and follow. Great experience.

I have been learning with teacher Hyun Ku for about 2 years now and I certainly say that I have really progressed with my Korean language skills. The teacher is friendly, gives frequent homework and encourages students to speak Korean as much as possible. I really recommend lessons with Hyun Ku!
