Friendly Certified Korean Teacher / Unlock your Korean potential through engaging tailored lessons! I have been teaching Korean for over five years to adult learners of various nationalities, both online and offline. I have also worked with multicultural families residing in Korea. As an experienced language teacher and learner myself, I believe that mastering a language goes beyond understanding its concepts—it requires deep cultural awareness from multiple perspectives. Korean, with its complex conjugations and high-context nature, demands frequent exposure in diverse situations for true comprehension. Learning on your own can be challenging, but my lessons are designed to make the process easier and more enjoyable for my students!

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.

Easy-to-Understand Korean Lessons | 1000+ Hours Taught | 5 Years in China & 4 Years Translating I’ve mainly taught Korean online to students from various countries. Over the past two years, I’ve accumulated over 1,000 hours of teaching experience. Thanks to working with such a wide range of learners, I’ve developed a deep understanding of different cultures and learning styles. To me, learning a language isn't just about memorizing words and grammar — it's also about understanding the culture behind it. That's why I always try to explain Korean in a way that connects language with culture, especially when you encounter tricky or unfamiliar concepts.

🔥Your passionate Korean tutor 🔥 Fun and systematic classes Customized ❤️Custom Curriculum. Through my long teaching experience, I can help students achieve their desired learning goals. I always motivate students so that they can reach their desired goals without giving up and lead the class without being bored. I can create and apply curriculum specific to needs of students (TOPIK, Korean grammar, Korean conversation, K-drama, K-pop etc.) Because the purpose of studying Korean is different for each student, I apply a learning method that is optimized for students. So I use a variety of tools to teach (video, audio, personalized textbooks etc.)

[⭐️ You can speak Korean just in 3 months! 🏆 ] 🔴 FOR YOUR MIRACLE! Learning a language is more like riding a bicycle or swimming. It’s not something to “study” like math or science. You don't need the textbook. To reach your goals, make many mistakes rather than pursuing perfection. Focus more on topics we usually talk about than on memorizing vocabs and studying grammar. In my lessons, you will speak Korean rather than “study” it. I’m a teacher, but “conversation designer” would be a better word for me. All of my students begin speaking from a very early stage. They learn speaking strategies and speak even with limited vocabulary and grammar. They laugh, enjoy themselves, and feel healed in lessons fully tailored to their own styles!

🤲🏻 Master Korean Step by Step - With a Goal in Mind 🤲🏻 ❤️ I have been teaching Korean since 2017. Teaching gives me joy and meaning in my life. I have a deeper understanding of the struggles that students face since I had to relearn to reconnect with my own culture. I know learning a language needs a bit of push so I like to offer student a plan for individual learning curves. During our lessons, I lead the class depending on the needs of each student. I focus on cultivating good habits in learning because I think that is the most important part of learning something new. I also like to make sure you get a positive image in mind in learning process. 🙇🏻‍♀️

Practical Korean for Foreigners in Korea | Evening Classes I have taught Korean to students from Japan, the United States, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Saudi Arabia, working with learners from beginner level to upper-intermediate and business conversation. For beginners, I focus on basic conversation, pronunciation, and essential expressions for daily life in Korea. For intermediate and advanced learners, I help students improve natural daily conversation, business Korean, and the use of appropriate tone and nuance in different situations. Through teaching students with diverse cultural backgrounds and learning goals, I understand where learners commonly struggle and adjust my explanations and teaching style to fit each student’s needs.

My courses cover all levels—from basic grammar and conversation to advanced TOPIK exam preparation (levels 1 to 6). I specialize in TOPIK writing (questions 51-54), reading, and listening sections, and many students aiming for TOPIK Level 4 have successfully passed with my guidance. Recently, one student preparing for TOPIK II Level 3 achieved their target score, which was very rewarding.
