#1 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SHINNIE 시니

시니 씨, 1년 동안 가르쳐 주셔서 감사합니다. 많은 선생님을 만나고 책과 앱도 사용해 봤지만 100% 솔직하고 전략적으로 가르치는 선생님은 시니 쌤밖에 없어요. 사실, 선생님을 만나기 전에 다른 선생님과 열심히 공부하고 디스코드라는 앱에서 한국어를 써 봤지만 못 한다고 욕을 많이 먹었습니다. 하지만, 시니 씨 선생님 덕분에 거의 1년밖에 공부 안 했는데도 7년 동안 한국어 공부한 사람보다 더 잘 한다는 말을 들었어요. 그것도 한국에서 한국 사람들한테 들었어요. 시니 선생님은 13년간 개발해 온 백과사전이 있어서 모든 사람들에게 가장 중요하지만 가장 헷갈리는 문법이랑 단어를 먼저 가르쳐 주시고 말하기, 듣기, 쓰기, 읽기, 여행, 음식, 영화, 게임, 정치, 경제, 토픽 시험 등 모든 주제를 그 자리에서 바로 가르칠 수 있어요. 선생님이 저한테 한국 사람이 가장 많이 쓰는 마스터 문법 10개를 가르쳐 주셨고 그 이후에는 선생님 없이도 모든 문법을 저 혼자서 공부할 수 있었어요. 그래서 수업 안 할 때는 혼자 문법을 외우면서 문장을 만들고 수업할 때는 항상 새로운 주제로 원어민처럼 연습하고 잘못된 정보와 나쁜 습관을 수정하는 것에만 집중할 수 있었어요. 그래서 이렇게 다른 사람들보다 더 빨리 공부할 수 있었던 것 같아요. 결과적으로, 열심히 수업하다 보니 한국 사람들을 만날 때마다 긴장하지 않고 유창하게 대화할 수 있게 됐어요. 그리고, 저는 올해 6월 14일부터 7월 6일까지 한국에서 뜻깊고 즐거운 여행을 했어요. 작년에 선생님을 만나지 않았더라면 올해 한국 여행했을 때 즐거운 추억을 쌓지 못 했을 거예요. 특히, 한국에서 택시를 탔을 때마다 택시 기사님이랑 다양한 주제에 대해 이야기를 했어요. 한국어를 어떻게 잘 하게 됐는지, 한국 생활은 어떤지, 역사에 대해 어떻게 생각하는지에 대해 이야기했어요. 선생님! 감사합니다! 저는 세계적으로 한국어를 제일 잘하는 외국인이 되고 선생님에게 자랑스러운 학생이 될게요. 앞으로도 잘 부탁드립니다. 열심히 하겠습니다.

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.

Mr. Shinnie has been incredibly helpful, especially when it comes to understanding and practicing verb conjugations. His explanations are clear, patient, and easy to follow, which has made a big difference in my learning progress. He always takes the time to make sure I truly understand the concepts before moving on. Thanks to his guidance, I feel much more confident. Simply the best instructor I could ask for. ✨💯✨👨🏻‍🎓감사합니다 ✨🙏✨⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

I appreciate Shinnie’s patience and his creative way of explaining how and why grammar and sentence structure is used. I am also grateful for his constant reminders to avoid overthinking and stick to the formula that works. More and more I am getting comfortable with thinking in the language instead of trying to remember or guess at what I want to say. The stress I felt in the beginning when I was trying to use the Korean I thought I knew is gone. I realize that I didn’t learn anything really useful before I started taking lessons with Shinnie. I am relieved to see how he is moving me forward without feeling like I have to make it past a certain level. Knowing that there are no levels removes a lot of pressure. The resource, his encyclopedia, is priceless because it is so thorough and I always have access to it. I am more confident because Shinnie is giving me the language tools that will lead me to independently conversation in Korean.

Learnt all related grammar points. Shinnie 씨 relates the words to our situation and this helps in remembering the words lot easier.

This was my first lesson/consultation and he took the time to understand why I wanted to start lessons, what my interests are and other pertinent information in order to customize my lesson. He explained his method, strategies and also assessed my current level. I felt that he was very thorough and provided some materials that we went over for me to review. Overall, I enjoyed my first class and will look to booking a package to continue my journey.
