Let's talk about any topics you want to improve your speaking ability!
When learning a foreign language, practicing speaking as much as possible is an important method to learn a language fast. This course is designed for intermediate students who can read Korean and can make simple sentences in Korean. And it is for students who want to practice speaking and improve their speaking level. Students or I can choose a topic such as social issues, dramas, movies, music, family, life, etc. and talk about it freely. Or I will prepare reading materials for reading and we can discuss it. They will learn new vocabulary, expressions, and idioms, etc. and definitely improve their speaking ability.

Aurora Gargallo
🇰🇷BASIC AND INTERMEDIATE KOREAN CLASSES! (TEACHER WITH TOPIK6 AND EXPERIENCE IN ACADEMY)
Hello! I'm Aurora, nice to meet you ☺️ A graduate of East Asian Studies (Autonomous University of Barcelona), I have been giving private lessons in languages such as English and Spanish for seven years, and I have been teaching Korean for two years. I also have experience as a basic-level Korean teacher at the Sejong Institute in Barcelona. In my undergraduate degree, I majored in Japanese and Korean language and literature. I have been living in Korea for two years, during which I have obtained TOPIK 6 and C2 level of Korean at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in Seoul. I am currently pursuing a postgraduate degree to obtain the official title of Korean teacher. I think that not being a native speaker of the language and having to learn it from scratch has provided me with very important tools to try to help Spanish speakers approach a language as different as Korean. In my classes, I adapt to the pace and needs of each student, without putting pressure. With me you can work on grammar, vocabulary, listening, speaking, reading and writing comprehension, and we can focus on one of them in particular if required. Depending on the student's interests (K-pop, K-dramas, Korean food, traditional culture, etc.), I try to make classes more enjoyable by creating practice exercises related to the topic of interest. :) With experience as a student in the TOPIK, I have also worked as an exam assistant, so I also offer to help prepare for TOPIK exams. I offer ONLINE or HOME classes. Are you up to learn Korean with me?~🇰🇷 한국어를 같이 공부합시다! (Let's study Korean together!)

Kay
Learn Korean and Experience Korean Culture with a Qualified Teacher as a Seouler
Hello! My name is Kay, and I live in Seoul, Korea. I have a Bachelor’s in English Literature, and a Master’s degree in International Development. For several years now, I have been teaching Korean language. As a certified instructor, I can effectively teach any level of the Korean language, and provide the tools and habits to practice it. If you are a beginner, we can start with Hangul, the characters of the Korean alphabet. For intermediate learners, I can help you expand upon your Korean through personalized lessons. This class will enable you to: - strengthen foundational Korean language skills in all the areas of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. - communicate a variety of essential topics with others, including greetings, family, friends, food, phone calls, daily activities, etc. - learn grammars easily with thorough explanations and abundant examples and exercises. - understand diverse Korean culture and customs. * Class content may be different depending on your goals, levels, experience, etc. I believe mastering a language can be achieved by using it as often as possible in your daily life. This class not only provides the knowledge you need to speak Korean properly, but also enables you to practice your Korean in a diverse, real-life situations. As a native Korean who was born and raised in Seoul, I will guide you by using modern vocabulary and natural expressions that Seoulers actually use in their daily life. And If you choose to have in-person sessions, I’d love to share my knowledge of local places with you. We can make our class fun together! Please feel free to contact me if you are interested or would like more information. We can discuss how to personalize the class for you.
