은비 쌤 is a great teacher and conversational partner. She maintains an upbeat energy that makes the class time fly by. In the past, my fear of making mistakes has limited my progress and ability to connect with other Korean speakers. 은비 makes it comfortable to make mistakes and speak freely, and her gentle corrections to make my Korean more natural have been incredibly helpful.
My favorite technique of hers is her approach to introducing new words to my vocabulary. Instead of immediately supplying the correct phrase, she first challenges me to try to come up with it myself. If it’s a word I haven't encountered before, she explains its meaning thoroughly, sometimes pointing out important 한자, and gives examples that help me truly understand it. That she believes in me to come up with Korean that I doubt myself of being able to produce is very encouraging. She keeps her explanations entirely in Korean, while adapting her speech to a level I can always understand.
