About Me
italki teacher since Mar 13, 2017InterestsScienceGamingHistoryTravelBusiness & Finance
Hello, my name is Hoyeon. I majored in computer science and worked as a software engineer at an electronics company.
Realizing how fulfilling it could be to understand and teach languages, I studied Korean language education online and started teaching Korean on italki. I never imagined I would make it this far, but I'm glad I'm on the right track and enjoying every moment of it.
When it comes to learning languages, I believe we can learn more naturally by reusing and reorganizing sentences or phrases we've heard before. It's all about repetition.
I rarely leave reviews. If there's something I need to tell my students, I address it during class. Thank you.Me as a Teacher
Attendance Policy, and Criteria
No-show, No Refund:
If a student doesn't show up on time without prior notice, I can wait for 20 minutes. After this, it will be considered a no-show, and the lesson fee will be fully charged. In the case of my no-show, the credit will be returned, and the next lesson will be free of charge.
Rescheduling:
Rescheduling through the italki system is always OK. You don't need to ask me.
Cancellation:
If you want to cancel the lesson at least 3 hours before the class time, I'll accept it. However, if the request is sent within 3 hours before the lesson time, half of the lesson fee will be charged.
Age Restriction:
I do not teach children or students under 18.My lessons & teaching style
I usually speak English when teaching beginners. However, when we focus on our target expressions or goals, I try to use as much Korean as possible. I can use six different series of textbooks, but if there are no specific requests, I stick to one or two series that I find most effective.
Feel free to message me if there are specific textbooks you want to study. Of course, I can teach without textbooks. In this case, my lesson notes will be the most important study materials.
I don't provide discounts for lesson packages, but you can request to terminate a package at any time without any explanation. I'll accept it without asking any questions.My teaching material

My trial lesson was really fun and engaging. Hoyeon was brilliant at explaining things and making them easy to understand, being patient with me when I made mistakes. I think I can learn a lot from a good teacher like Hoyeon.

Hoyeon is a great teacher. He is very patient and calm. I have just started studying Korean so I am still understanding the basics of the language. Hoyeon's organised way of teaching and progression really suits me in this phase.
