#1⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SHINNIE 시니

I just came back yesterday from a 3 week trip to Korea from 14 June till yesterday. I am very thankful for every lesson I had with Shinnie. I only started studying learning Korean with him for 9 months, however I been doing so good in Korean as he is very honest and he corrects my regression. Thanks to Shinnie now I could speak Korean very well so I didn’t face any major language barriers in Korea. During the trip I free talked to lots of Taxi drivers for like 70% of the ride in Korean using the precious skills I gained from 9 months of classes with Shinnie that teaches free talk, grammar, words. More than 25 people in Korea during the 3 weeks praised my Korean. One even question whether I lived in Korea for very long or I had a Korean mother. I formed many connections in Korea due to my Korean skills. I went outside of tourists areas such as Seoul and Busan and I went to Korean countryside and I got praised there. If I couldn’t spoke Korean I wouldn’t be able to venture out of Seoul.

I have been having lessons with Shinne for a year now. Shinnie is patient, respectful and passionate about his students learning. When I thought I wasn’t progressing he showed me how much I have learned and helped restore my confidence. Shinnie has taught me how to study successfully again using his proven methods and my self-confidence has grown. I know Shinnnie teaches people with ADHD, stuttering, mental illnesses, and disabilities as I have some of these conditions. However, he has never discriminated against me and has been truly dedicated to my Korean learning. I have tried learning with other Korean teachers who have given me false compliments which I did not find productive. Shinnie has helpfully pointed out attitudes or habits that have hindered my progress and he is always honest about my skills and goals. You can trust him and just follow his guidance—without overthinking or false delusions. Shinnie is an excellent, top rate teacher. If I can do it, you can too.

After three classes I feel like I’ve learned more than I have in four years of formal schooling… there’s a reason why Shinnie teacher is the top teacher!

I came to Shinnie after struggling to find motivation and progress with self study. From the very first lesson with him, I blew past what I had been able to achieve with textbooks and online resources, and felt so empowered and rewarded by the results of his unique method. Shinnie's focus on teaching grammar in order of the most commonly used allowed me to start free talking faster than I thought possible. He's firm when it comes to having the right approach to lessons and study, because he's truly committed to my success, but gentle when I feel nervous or overwhelmed and helps me simplify the process and focus on the right things when it feels like too much. Every lesson feels like comfortably talking to a friend, yet he interjects new grammar patterns and vocabulary, as well as reinforcement of everything we learn, seamlessly. Shinnie's lessons and unique method for studying truly feel like the most natural way to acquire a language, without stress or blind memorization. 감사합니다 선생님!

He explains everything very clearly, and I can easily see which areas I need to improve. The homework is very helpful, and he provides clear examples that make it much easier to understand sentence structures used in native Korean communication.

Great lesson with Shinnie. Following his patterns has really improved my understanding of Korean.
