Hi, I’m Lim from Korea! :) I’ve had a deep passion for languages and cultures since childhood, and I love sharing that enthusiasm with others. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Korean and English Language and Literature, specializing in Second Language Acquisition. After graduating, I worked as a journalist for a year, which allowed me to develop strong writing and speaking skills through full-time journalism work.

I’m always grateful for 정은 쌤 for her clear explanation and enthusiasm in teaching. She devotes a lot in preparing each lesson and is always to happy to tailor make the content based on my interest. Mostly important we share lots of common interests, from history to pop culture, politics and languages. Today we continued our discussion on Korean politics and midterm election, and then talked about the currently very popular drama Queen of Tears. On top of this, we still managed to go through my homework and learnt a few more adjectives of emotions!!

정은 씨 덕분에 토픽 시험 잘 볼 수 있어서 짧은 시간에 6급이나 받게 됐어요! 의견을 나누는 게 항상 재미있고 정은 씨의 다양한 언론과 한국어에 대한 자식이 뛰어나다고 생각해요. 기회가 되면 꼭 한번 정은 씨의 수업 들어 보세요~ :)

It’s been three weeks since I last met sseam and I could feel my Korean is getting a bit rusty today. But sseam is as friendly and patient as always and helps me construct my ideas despite my lack of fluency. We talked about the natural disasters like typhoons, earthquakes, and then going back to the image of civil servants on which I wrote as my homework last time. Thanks so much for your teaching as always!!

정은 씨‘s lessons are extremely organised and informative. Various useful expressions and grammar points are taught based on a wide range of interesting topics and are further reinforced through sample sentences and in-dept discussions. I could not have been happier with the progress I have made so far under the guidance of 정은 씨 ☺️♥️

Today we talked about the declining popularity of civil servants as an occupation among the younger generation in Korea. It is based on a YouTube clip which is a bit challenging. JE sseam kindly prepared a list of vocabulary and summary of the key points of the clip to facilitate my understanding and our discussion. It was really helpful and thanks so much for sparing the time and effort despite her busy schedule!!
