Tom Lee

Honestly I can say that after taking many many many lessons with Tom DAILY, this is probably one of the best teachers I’ve ever had in my life — period!! I cannot recommend him enough, he is so kind, compassionate punctual. He makes learning so fun and I can genuinely say that it has been a pleasure to be his student. His teaching method for learning languages is by far one of the most practical and hands on approaches. I never thought I would have learnt the amount I learned. And I never even did any of the homework 😂. He paces his lessons to suit his students. He takes so much notes during lessons. The study material is always centred around your life so you really learn vocabulary you would use in real life. I can’t recommend him enough.

Some people are just born to teach. Tom has a gift for sure. Tom offers a perfect balance of instruction, patience, encouragement, and humor.  -He uses both Korean and English in class -he types notes for you as you go -homework easily fits into busy schedules -you learn so much without realizing it -He can easily sense when you don't understand and may need additional examples -He can also sense when you are having an off-day and need less pressure. -classes are a joy and will quickly become the highlight of your week.   I am thankful I put the self-teaching attempts down and took a chance. Learning a language is hard. Having someone to walk beside you that genuinely cares about your success makes it easier.

Excellent lesson as always! After only a few lessons, I definitely feel like my Korean has improved a lot. When I watch Korean shows, I feel like I'm at the level where I can point out the parts where the Korean dialog differs from the English subtitles (whereas prior to lessons with Tom, I was still at the stage where I had to rely on subtitles).

Tom used Google Docs and Zoom to teach me Korean. It's a very effective strategy. We did some quizzes. Tom always corrected my mistakes in a kind way. He is very encouraging, always saying "촣아요" when I get something correct. He is very patient and gives a reasonable amount of homework. He is always punctual and reliable. He dresses very smart, wearing a shirt with a collar. Tom is very professional. He doesn't waste any time whatsoever. Our lessons were very productive. He taught me the days of the week using lots of stories and memory hooks. I learnt the days of the week in just 5 minutes from Tom's teaching. He explained the entire curriculum very well and I look forward to my next lesson with Tom. I would recommend Tom 11/10. Please book a lesson with Tom. You won't regret it.

Great lesson discussing my trip to Korea (tomorrow!!). Learned some new words and context around air travel! Tom and I are also working on verb conjugations with all the verb endings we have reviewed It's great typing practice and it also is a great re-fresher on each of the endings. It is perfect for pairing up my study books with each ending and then reviewing the meaing and use in sentences. I really like the tool he created, plus it helps me memorize new verbs!

Tom is a consistently great teacher! Even when I'm tired, I learn a lot from him and he's always encouraging. Tom is brilliant at explaining grammar and context, and he's great at helping me help myself improve. He's great at identifying my weakness, where I need help, and how I can get better. Thank you again for another great lesson!
