Today, we talked about the different characteristics of ideal jobs, a lesson focused on speaking that was prepared for me because I requested a little more emphasis on speaking than the traditional textbooks give. I'm thankful that Mijin has been customizing my lessons and helping me every step of the way!

I have been taking writing lessons with Mijin 선생님 to prepare for the writing part of TOPIK II. In each lesson we cover writing on a different type of a topic (펠요성, 문제점 등) and then build on it and help me use more advanced level grammar and vocab. Mijin 선생님 always gives me valuable feedback on my homework and answers all of my questions patiently. I recommend Mijin 선생님 to anyone but especially to those who want to improve their writing and like to learn in a systematic, structured way ^^

This was our first class. It was for TOPIK prep. First, we did free talk and she asked questions to learn about me and my experience and goals and motivations. Then, we moved into a structured TOPIK prep lesson. She explained unknown vocabulary in Korean and using charades, which I like. She also made sure to teach me the collocations for new vocabulary - a very valuable strategy. She was patient and friendly. I will definitely take another class!

Today we reviewed how to compare two subjects using 부다, and then learned how to use 제일 and 중에서 to express preferences within groups. My 선생님 continues to be helpful and encouraging, even when I forget basic grammar principles and misspell words. I'm finally at a point where I can have basic conversations and I honestly never thought I could get to this point in my learning. I've tried many different ways of learning Korean, but have found that having a solid private tutor has helped me grow exponentially and kept me accountable in my Korean language journey. I've grown so much over the course of a few months and would highly recommend her to anyone who is new to learning Korean!

TOPIK2対策として先生のレッスンを受講しました。出題傾向や解き方のポイントを丁寧にわかりやすく教えてくださいました。先生のおかげで十分に試験準備が出来たと思います。いつも楽しくわかりやすい授業をしていただき、ありがとうございました😊 Thanks to the instructor’s excellent guidance, I felt confident and well prepared for the exam.

I really like Mijin 선생님! She is very patient with me despite many mistakes, and I can feel the improvement in my skill as I do lessons with her.
