Hi there! My name is Lydia and I'm a Korean tutor from Singapore. I've been learning Korean since 2013 and I love using my knowledge of the language to teach others. I love everything about the Korean language and culture, especially Kpop!
Me as a Teacher
My main teaching experience comes from teaching beginners at a weekly Korean language meet-up that I attend here in Singapore. I'm always open to answering questions about the Korean language and helping others improve in their command of the language. I use my abilities in various languages (like English and Chinese) when I teach to help students better understand the languages
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is influenced by my own experience taking Korean classes and from certain teaching videos that I came across when I first started learning Korean. I try to make things as easily understandable as possible by using simple metaphors to explain complex concepts in the language. I take on a more student-directed teaching approach by letting students decide what they want to learn/cover during the lessons instead of sticking to a set curriculum.

We had a good conversation with Lydia about language learning methods, what would be useful and about materials. We also did a reading exercise and checked my presentation. Thank you

I am very thankful for Lydia as she helps me to understand and clarify the way you are supposed to speak Korean, and she makes it simple. She is very patient with me as well.
