5 years of experience as a Korean language school teacher! I’ll help you speak comfortably! 제가 미국에 와서 생활하며 느낀 점이 있어요. 언어를 배우려면 많이 듣고, 따라하고, 문장을 스스로 만들어보는 게 젤 중요하다는 점이예요. 언어는 긴장된 분위기에서는 잘 늘지 않아요. 말이 잘 안나오면 기다려 드릴께요. (물론 중간중간 고쳐드릴수 있구요.) 이해가 안되면 여러번 말해드릴께요. I’ve realized something from living in the U.S.: the best way to learn a language is to listen a lot, repeat, and try making sentences on your own. Language skills don’t improve well in a tense or stressful environment. If you have trouble speaking, I’ll give you time to find the words. (Of course, I can also help correct you along the way.) And if you don’t understand something, I’ll explain it as many times as needed.

(Please see "About Me" section) My native language is Korean and I learned English as I live in the US. Learning a language is not just about knowing how to read, write or speak, but to embrace the culture and the history. I think of it as a long journey or a marathon, but while having lots of fun along the way. Just as a journey or a marathon has a destination and a finish line, we do need consistency and endurance as well as short and long-term goals. Everyone is unique - that makes this journey or marathon interesting!

Certified Korean teacher with over 10 years of teaching experience My majors are English Language and Korean as a foreign language. I was fascinated to teach what I know to other people while I was an English teacher in Korea for four years and I learned how to pour love to my students by spending quality time. Moreover, teaching Korean at the university in the USA made me feel more proud of what I am doing as a native speaker. As a teacher, I consider communication as well as knowledge as the top priority to know what students are struggling with and help with it properly. I can be your friend-like teacher!

Learning Korean
It was such a fun and enjoyable learning experience! I loved being able to read along and work on improving my pronunciation. It really helped me pronounce words more clearly, remember new vocabulary, and feel more confident when speaking.

I started learning Korean three years ago, and reading - especially Batchim - has always been one of my biggest challenges. With Jinny, I finally feel like it is starting to click! Jinny makes every lesson genuinely fun, and learning with her feels surprisingly easy. You can really tell that she has developed a great teaching strategy based on her experience with different students. Her approach has completely changed the way I practise reading. Instead of feeling frustrated, I actually enjoy it now, and I can already see myself getting better and more confident. What I especially love about Jinny is the way she encourages me without putting any pressure on me. She corrects my mistakes in such a clear and visual way that the explanations really stick in my mind. I don’t just learn what is right or wrong - I actually understand how to do it better next time. If you want to learn Korean, especially if you struggle with reading or Batchim like I did, definitely book a lesson with Jinny

I enjoy the lessons with Taejeong a lot! He is kind, patient, and approachable. His lessons keep me motivated to continue learning Korean. As I had already studied Korean, he had me take a level test before the first lesson. This helped him understand my level, and tailor the lessons to my skills and learning goals. His explanations of the Chinese character roots of words are extremely helpful. I will always remember the difference between 요리 and 유리, or the meaning of 도서관 and 서점 thanks to his explanations.

영쌤과 같이 한국어를 공부한 지 벌써 1년이 되었어요. 다른 선생님과 공부할 때는 제 한국어 실력이 보통 아주 천천히 늘었는데, 영쌤과 배우기 시작한 후부터는 생각보다 빠르게 실력이 좋아졌어요. 영쌤은 항상 인내심을 가지고 친절하게 가르쳐 주시고, 학생 한 명 한 명에게 딱 맞는 수업을 만들어 주세요. 또한 다양한 수업이 있어서 수업 중에 제가 원하는 수업을 선택해서 들을 수 있다는 점도 정말 좋아요. 앞으로도 계속 영쌤과 함께 재미있게 한국어를 배우고 싶어요. 항상 감사합니다!🤗🫶

I’m a beginner in Korean, and Teacher Bit has made learning easier. She helps me with pronunciation and uses pictures to teach new words, which makes them easy to understand and remember. I highly recommend Bit 선생님 to anyone starting Korean, especially if you need pronunciation and conversation practice. Her YouTube videos also cover much essential beginner vocabulary, which would be helpful for traveling in Korea.

Jooah is one of the best Korean teachers on italki. She is patient, passionate, and genuinely cares about her students. You can really feel that she wants you to improve and succeed. She adapts every lesson to your level, making it challenging enough to help you progress without ever feeling overwhelming. She can teach students from beginner to advanced level, and her conversations are always fun, interesting, and engaging. Jooah has an excellent understanding of Korean grammar and, most importantly, explains it clearly to foreign learners. She also provides detailed notes after each lesson, making it easy to review and consolidate what you have learned. If you are serious about learning Korean, I highly recommend her. Her lessons will help you improve enormously and speak Korean more naturally, correctly, and fluently in real-life situations.

민 선생님 is an incredible teacher! I especially appreciate the effort she puts into preparing the lesson materials. She always prepares lesson materials that are tailored to my needs and interests. She carefully organizes and highlights useful expressions and vocabulary from videos, which has helped me understand how to use Korean naturally in real-life situations. During our lessons, she guides me in creating my own sentences using the new vocabulary and expressions, which has been incredibly helpful for remembering and actually applying what I learn. She also sends the materials to me before each class, which gives me time to prepare for the lesson. She is also very detail-oriented and identifies areas where I need improvement, especially with certain grammar points and my pronunciation. Thanks to 민 선생님, I have become much more confident in Korean and have even started using Korean in my music work. I highly recommend 민 선생님!
