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.

With my multi-cultural experiences, I can better communicate with others, and understand the varying perspectives of individuals studying a new language. :)

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!
Kay is an amazing teacher and I've learnt so much!! Very very recommended :)

KS2 - KS3 Mathematics taught by an Expert Graduate from Imperial College London
Do you or your children think why should the Mathematics even be studied? What if I told you, everything around you from AI to economics has hidden Mathematics behind it, even the device your are currently reading this on can only work because of Mathematics. Therefore, it becomes crucial that your child relates to seemingly abstract concepts and understands why it is important to study them. Given my real-life research experience and an advanced degree in applied mathematics, I can provide just that: real-world applicable examples of different mathematical concepts to keep the students engaged and interested in the subject matter. This practical approach not only enhances comprehension but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the relevance of mathematics in everyday life. For instance, a simple concept like of percentages can be explained by relating it to expenses and the pocket money. Even seemingly daunting topics like Trigonometry become accessible and exciting when I would explain how they are applied in sustaining not one or two but four different trillion-dollar industries. I make mathematics relatable, enjoyable, and comprehensible by offering numerous examples that demonstrate its practical significance. Whether your aspirations lie in sports, science, or medicine, mathematics is an indispensable tool, and my aim is to make the learning experience enjoyable and rewarding for every student.
