My lessons & teaching style
Why do you learn to speak Korean?
During lessons, we will speak Korean as much as possible.
I offer Korean language classes at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.
Basically, I use textbooks that are appropriate for the student's Korean proficiency level to conduct lessons.
You will study systematically with Korean textbooks in class.
And you will spend time knowing Korea more realistically through Korean dramas and K-pop.
Please let me know which K-culture you prefer to share with me.
Trial lesson will help you know your level and we will be able to discuss the class.

Kate is always wonderful to take lessons with. They are challenging, engaging and I can sense myself getting better at Korean with each one. I look forward to each lesson with Kate and will continue to learn with her!

Had another productive lesson today. Kate is an excellent teacher, she is patient and fun to work with. I like how we focus on improving my weak spots and the fact that she gives homework and study material. If you’re like me and need structure and patience, I highly recommend this class.

Kate is one of those teachers who has amazing sense in her native context. You talk to her and will find what I mean. This trait will be extremely helpful if you are looking for job interview prep or cross-cultural communication.

Kate helped me so much with a last minute presentation. I owe so much to her! Not only did she give amazing, natural feedback, but explained each reason for her edits in detail. 10/10 recommend working or studying with her.

Not a good teacher for a toddler. A language instructor for a toddler needs to be engaging. My daughter lost interest at 15 min. I was listening in and I lost interest in about the same time. She might be a great instructor for adults but I don’t recommend for toddlers.

I had a good experience because this teacher always greets me and makes me improve a lot. So I would want to say thanks! Plus, this teacher is suitable for my age and really makes me feel happy!

Gunwoo.
