Hello, everyone! My name is Young. I was born and raised in Seoul, so I speak standard Korean and can teach you learn it.
I love learning languages, traveling, and exploring different cultures. Along with teaching Korean, I’m excited to share Korean culture with you.
I used to work as a school guidance counselor(teacher) but now I teach Korean.

After having a few lessons with Young 선생님, I can say that she's an amazing teacher.
She is a teacher who is always cheerful and willing to answer questions. I feel like I'm really improving my Korean in these classes. With her patience and care, the lessons are much more fun and productive. I'm excited to continue this learning process.
감사합니다 Young 선생님

At this point, I have had over 10 lessons with Young, and they have all been very enjoyable. She is highly consistent, always energetic, and makes me feel comfortable. She ensures that I understand the material we are practicing and provides plenty of feedback, especially regarding homework. I'm glad I found Young as a teacher. Thank you so much, 선생님~

I always enjoy lessons with Young 선생님, she is always very encouraging and answers all of my questions in an easy to understand way. She helps me a lot with pronunciation and learning new words and is always really easy to talk to. I'm always looking forward to our next class together!

Today was my first lesson with Young and I am already about to book my second class.
She was well prepared for the class using a range of materials from a textbook to power points that she had created herself. She started the class with a positive and welcoming presence so that there was no pressure. She went over why I wanted to learn Korean and my aims.
She uses a CLT (Communicative Language Teaching) method which allows for oral drilling of vocabulary and grammar. This is done through tasks in the textbook and Power Point.
She is very knowledgeable and patient. At no point did I feel pressured like I would do in a normal class. She is also very creative with questions she asks. This allows the vocabulary and grammar to really be remembered easily.
You will leave the class feeling like you have made progress and eager to learn more. You will look forward to the next lesson. It's like a Korean Drama episode ending on a cliffhanger and you have to wait 1 week for the next class

Had a fantastic and excellent lesson with Teacher Young. From the start of my learning journey, Teacher Young has always been nothing but kind during her lessons. She also actively encourages me to communicate in Korean, further improving the overall experience.

Yong used a good communicative language teaching approach with the textbook and other materials in which she prepares for a class. She is very attentive and encourages you when you make a mistake. She keeps the class in a positive attitude at all times. The homework is good and will challenge you without crushing you.
