I am Korean-American, so I speak both Korean and English. I am passionate about learning languages. Currently I speak eight at different levels. I am primarily focusing on learning German currently. Russian is by far my favorite language. Also, I love to travel!
Me as a Teacher
I have taught English to Chinese students at the beginner level and also adults when I was living for 3 months in Lviv, Ukraine. The way I taught my English classes with adults is taking excerpts from a podcast and discussing at length the conversation taking place. The way I like to learn languages is mainly through Anki, but also through conversation. We can discuss your goals and can come up with a strategy to reach the Intermediate Plateau (B2 level) in the target language that you would like to learn whether it be English or Korean.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is to have conversation naturally, but also I like to discuss dialogues. I have many Korean language teaching books and realized the best way to learn Korean is through the analysis of dialogues and also watching dramas as you can see the current/modern usage of the language. Send me a message and we can discuss exactly what your objectives with the language are.

I appreciate the learning program that my teacher was able to provide for me so that I could practice and study my listening skills away from class time. This was a major help in helping me to understand the unique sounds of the Korean language.

I truly appreciate how Woong was able to connect the difficult Korean sounds to where I could relate it to how I could easily pronounce the sound and the word. He was also able to show the various material that he uses to teach his students to help them learn better in Korean

He is very kind and answers my questions patiently. Besides, he communicates with me sincerely. So this time I asked him many questions about traveling to South Korea, and he gave me a lot of excellent suggestions.
