Hello! I’m Sohyeon, a certified Korean Language teacher who will ensure your Korean skills reach the next level! I discovered that I have a strong passion for teaching Korean while I was teaching in a social welfare center previously. I have experience teaching Korean to people of all ages and from all around the world, and I love learning about different cultures. It is very fun to see how people from different cultures sometimes view things similarly, but in completely different ways. I’m really grateful that there are so many people interested in my country’s culture, and it makes me want to help everyone master Korean.
Me as a Teacher
Through years of teaching Korean, I have learned fun and interactive classes is one of the most important aspects of learning, since things are more easily remembered in a fun learning environment. I also believe that using words and phrases that students have learned recently helps significantly in integrating those words into their repertoire. I am very proud of my students, most of whom have shown a lot of progress in this area. One of the main goals in learning a language is to speak it, which is why I also put a lot of effort into encouraging sentence construction and speaking.

I've been taking lessons from Teacher Sohyeoun for over 5 years and the lessons have been very enjoyable - During this time I have also achieved a TOPIK L5 in my first (and only) attempt at the TOPIK II without much specific exam practice, just short a few points from L6.
I highly recommend her lessons - if you put in the work you'll find that you can go very far. She's a teacher who will go as fast as you are capable of going.

I look forward to every lesson with 선생님! With a lot of patience and the right amount of push, I keep getting more comfortable with creating sentences. 선생님 pays close attention to pronunciation and very amazingly captures and highlights words that one needs to focus on, all while staying attentive and encouraging.
Also I love how we can talk about any other subject and I somehow learn even more about it in Korean. For anyone who is looking for a great guide, motivator with needed push can't go wrong with Teacher Sohyeon.
Thank you 선생님 for creating a safe space to practice.

It’s been 40 lessons since my last review and… wow, what a journey! Since studying with Sohyeon, I’ve been making consistent progress in Korean learning. Her approach is what makes the difference: she never gives up, always put fresh new information in every lesson but still testing if old knowledge is there, giving a lot and also asking a lot - as a good teacher should always do! When I have Korean classes I always want to give my best cause I know that for all the effort I put, Sohyeon will put the double to make sure I grow and learn! Definitely a 10/10 for me!

저는 와이파이 문제가 많아서 아쉬운데 선생님 여전히 인내심이 많고 도움을 많이 주셨어요. 선생님 덕분에 절대 안 포기하고 더 열심히 공부하고 싶어요.

Sohyeon was so helpful! She’s great to correct mistakes as soon as they happen, but also makes you think and really understand WHY certain things are the way they are.
Overall a fantastic experience, she’s an incredible teacher!
