We, as language learners, need the motivation to keep learning. In my opinion, that kind of motivation mainly comes from having regular conversations with native speakers, especially those who have experienced the same struggles of learning a new language. In that sense, I want to offer you as much support as you need to achieve your goals.

🌸Start speaking Korean confidently!🌿Relaxed vibe, and real progress ✨Beginner friendly👌 I see myself as both a coach and a supportive friend! Korean is my first language, and I also speak English, so I understand the struggles of learning a foreign language. That’s why I always create a comfortable, encouraging environment for my students. I’m patient, encouraging, and I’ll correct you in a way that builds confidence, not stress. I believe mistakes are not failures but stepping stones—you’ll learn the most from them, and I’ll be right there to guide you.

K-pop Lover & 5 years Exp 💃 Fun Lessons My lessons focus on conversation practice, with clear explanations of Korean grammar and expressions in English. I emphasize pronunciation and natural intonation, correcting sounds and sentence rhythm during practice. With about 5 years of teaching experience, I provide personalized lessons tailored to each student’s goals, working with learners from beginner to advanced levels. Lessons may include daily conversation, grammar, or materials based on students’ interests, such as K-pop or Korean dramas. Some of my former students from Thailand are now studying or working in Korea.

🌱 Speak Korean at Your Own Speed — With a Kind Teacher Who Supports Every Step I’ve taught Korean to learners from teenagers to adults, both offline and online. My students come from diverse backgrounds and study Korean for travel, TOPIK, daily life, or work. ✔️ I’ve helped: • Beginners who didn’t know Hangul • Shy students build speaking confidence • TOPIK learners improve grammar and writing • Workers in hotels, airlines, and customer service learn job-specific Korean Each learner is different. So I adjust the speed, materials, and focus to match your goals and level. Many students start with no Korean, but grow steadily with support and review. My classes are open to learners aged 13 and up, and I always try to make learning warm, practical, and stress-free.

☺️ 재밌게 저랑 같이 한국어 배워봐요! Let’s learn Korean step by step, and make it fun and easy! [K-pop,K-drama] 🤩 어려운 한국어를 보다 쉽고 재밌게 설명해 여러분이 이해될 때까지 끝까지 이끌어 줄 선생님입니다! - Korean language lessons to international students (academic and internships placements) - Tutor for middle school students In my classes, we use different books depending on the students’ language level and focus on the 4 essential parts of a language: speaking, listening, reading and writing. Depending on the students’ language level, each part will have different degrees of difficulty. Students in my class are encouraged to learn Korean through “active learning”, i.e., rather than memorization, they actively apply what they have learned (e.g., writing or speaking exercises).

I’m here not only as a teacher, but as someone who listens, encourages, and grows with you. Let’s learn Korean together — comfortably, meaningfully, and joyfully. 💛
