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.

Extra information

Place: I prefer meeting at cafes in either the Gangnam or Seocho district of Seoul.
Learning materials: I use the textbooks titled “Sejoing Korean”(e-book available) with PPT and online contents. If you want to study with any specific book, such as the TOPIK test prep book, I’m happy to use it. For a conversational class, we can work without a book, and use the materials I will prepare in advance.

About Me

I love learning new languages and cultures. I’ve traveled to many countries in Europe, volunteered in the Philippines, and lived in the United States and Cambodia for a year each. Also, I have engaged in several international development projects, and visited the Dominican Republic in Central America and Ghana in Africa.
With my multi-cultural experiences, I can better communicate with others, and understand the varying perspectives of individuals studying a new language. :)

Experience / Qualifications

I have the Korean Language Teacher Certificate, issued by the Korean government.
I have been teaching Korean language for several years now. I have taught the Korean language and classes on Korean culture to summer school students from UK, US, and Australia to help them adapt to their school life. When I was living in US, I helped many of my foreign friends learn Korean.

Reviews (11)

Incredibly skilled and talented in English as well as in teaching, very charming and accomodating. Kay was a fenomenal tutor with tons of patience, warm humor and ”nunchi”. She quickly caught on my speed of learning and adjusted the lessons to seamlessly fit my needs. I am impressed and warmly recommend her to any type of student interested in learning Korean.
Kay is a fantastic Korean teacher whose friendly approach makes learning enjoyable and effective. Her lessons are always well-prepared and tailored to my needs, showing her professionalism and dedication. She explains concepts clearly, making the challenging parts of the language accessible. Kay's encouraging and positive attitude creates a welcoming learning environment. I highly recommend her to anyone eager to learn Korean.
Kay is great! She builds the lessons to your level and expects you to actually learn something. Her explanations and answers to any questions you have are clear and helpful. Big recommend!
Gem💎!!! If you found this teacher you are very lucky! I had a really fun time every lesson so far. Misses Kay prepares new material for your specific level each lesson. Because my focus was on learning conversational Korean we speak a lot while going through the material. That way I learn a lot of expressions that are relevant for my personal everyday life while using the newly learned Grammar. Even though I speak slowly Misses Kay is very patient with me. After a few lessons I have become more confident in reading, pronunciation and making my own sentences. Misses Kay is a super kind person. The lessons have a casual atmosphere and feel just like meeting with a friend. I'm always looking forward to the next lesson!
Kay is a true professional teacher. She listens to your needs and designs an individualized plan for you. Most importantly, she is kind, patient, and fun. I highly recommend her!

Jonathan
Private lessons in French and work methodology
My name is Jonathan. I am a young teacher with already 15 years of experience in the field of academic support for primary and secondary school children up to rhetoric.

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools. Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons.

The most important thing for me is that we have fun while learning – that makes everything a lot more fun!

That is of course also possible! Let me know what level you are at now and what you would like to learn. I would love to challenge you, but make sure it is always fun and that you don't have too much at once. The prices stated are for a lesson for 1 person.
