안녕하세요.
I’ve been teaching for more than 15 years, and I’ve worked with students from around the world. My background includes planning and teaching lessons to children as well as adults. I specialize in teaching Korean Pronunciation for Beginners, Basic Korean Phrases, and exam preparations like TOPIK, and other competitive exams.
I have a Korean language teaching certificate issued by the Korean government
and more than 10 years of teaching experience on and offline as well.
I also have a master's degree of education in language teaching.
In my class, I work with a lot of creativity and positivity.

I appreciate that the teacher asked me a lot of questions and gave me many chances to talk. He was very encouraging and made me feel more confident about my speaking ability.
