👩🏻‍🎓B.A. in Korean Language & Literature 👩🏻‍🏫 Certified Korean Teacher 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 passionate not only about learning foreign languages but also about teaching Korean to international learners. During my university years, I taught Korean to exchange students from diverse backgrounds, helping them achieve their language goals. I regularly corrected their Korean journal entries and assisted them in improving their conversational skills in both formal and informal settings. Through these experiences, I realized that knowing a language and teaching it effectively are two very different things. This realization motivated me to study Second Language Acquisition more deeply, leading me to take extensive TESOL/TKSOL courses in college. As a former journalist, I can help you improve both your speaking fluency and writing skills. I provide corrections and feedback, which we’ll review together at the end of each class. If you prefer casual conversation practice without textbooks, I can prepare engaging materials for you.

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~ :)

We had another great conversation today. This time we focused mostly on the linguistic history of Korean (vs. other East Asian languages), based on a book chapter we were beginning to read. Each lesson with sseam is now not only about learning Korean language but also a lot more about its history and culture. I am so gratefully for the efforts and time sseam has made for me over the years. Thank you so much!

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 had another wonderful conversation class! We first talked about my recent everyday life and sseam’s recent travel experiences. Then we moved on to the historical terms in Chosun period which was very interesting. We have decided to study further old Korean language(s) in our next lesson, really looking forward to that! 😊
