Bit-Na is always patient with my off topic questions and long (half in korean) stories, she engages with the conversation but never lose focus of the lesson. I really appreciate that ability to encourage natural conversations while teaching structural topics such as grammar.
빛나씨 감사합니다

I just completed my 35th lesson with 빛나! I always look forward to our sessions. Even though I am very shy when it comes to speaking foreign languages, 빛나 is very warm and gentle so I always feel at ease. Our sessions are so much fun as well! And of course, I have also learned a lot. 빛나 is very organised and adjusts the lessons to my level, which is great. I even managed to speak Korean during my trip to Seoul this spring, not a single word of English! I can whole-heartedly recommend her lessons!

한국어수업을 하고 빛나는 재밌어요! She is the best teacher on iTalki! She is very patience and understanding of my learning style and always helpful when I have questions about something I may not understand. 10/10 will have class again! 감사해요!

오래만에 만나서 너무너무 방갑다!! 전 이번 한국 여행은 빛나 씨 만날 수 있으면 얼마나 좋았을텐데 ~ 근데 이제 캐나다에서 다양한 아름다운 순간도 경험해서 저도 좋아용 ~ ^^
다음에 꼭 즐겁고 행복하게 만나요! 🥰

My lessons with Bitna are always wonderful. It has been a few weeks since my last class, but we are gearing back up for some great learning and I couldn't be happier!
