Looking back on all my progress and how far I've come with learning Korean, I am so thankful for ์ ๋ ์ ์๋. I couldn't imagine that 1.5 years later that I'm speaking as much as I am (mistakes and all) and that I am reading a novel in Korean (slowly, but surely), but here I am. ์ ๋ ์ ์๋์ด ์์๋ค๋ฉด ์ ์๊ฐ์๋ ํผ์์ ๋ง์ ๊ฒ์ ๋ฐฐ์ธ ์ ์์์ ๊ฒ ๊ฐ์์.

I think I have completed over twenty-five lessons with ์ ๋ ์ ์๋ at this point. I am so happy I found her. She is really the perfect teacher for me. During the first fifteen minutes or so of our lessons together, we have a kind of free talk session, and she is always patient when I am trying to express myself in Korean. During the grammar and workbook portion of our sessions, I have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and practice the new grammar points we are learning.
I am an English teacher in an elementary school in Korea, and I can confidently say that since I have started taking lessons with ์ ๋ ์ ์๋, my comprehension of spoken Korean and my ability to communicate in Korean has increased noticeably. I am able to help my own students more since I can understand what questions they are asking me, and I can communicate (although at a basic level) with my school's administrators when necessary.
I am looking forward to taking many more lessons with ์ ๋ ์ ์๋!

First full lesson, AMAZING! I feel so comfortable speaking Korean out loud (which I do not feel with my other tutor out of nerves!), and Yuni is so helpful and kind in her correction and teaching. 10/10!

I have studied with Yuni for two years now, when I first started I canโt remember even if I had a clear goal in mind. Through learning Korean with Yuni I finally found why I wanted to learn Korean and why I wanted to work so hard. Itโs true that becoming fluent in a language is a large percentage of hard work that has to come from oneself but when you have a teacher like Yuni supporting you and guiding you, your fluency goals are absolutely achievable . Iโve wanted to give up so many times on this road and It was with Yunis support that I never did and now I can speak fluently! Learning with Yuni has been an absolute pleasure

Second full lesson with Yuni, still 100/10! I do so much speaking in our one on ones, and it is very helpful.

Just had my trial lesson with Yuni and WILL be booking more immediately! I have been studying Korean for about a year, both on my own and with a tutor in a group setting, and I feel that I need the one on one time to improve my speaking and listening skills. In the group tutoring setting, I find myself comfortable sitting back and understanding but not practicing. I had to speak basically the entire time with Yuni, got many things right and many things wrong, but never felt discouraged or bad for making mistakes. Highly recommend if you're looking to improve your speaking and listening skills! She also speaks very clearly when conversing in Korean, and slow enough to understand but not so slow that you don't get the listening practice needed to continue improving your own skills.
