Hello, future student!
My name is Su and I’m certified Korean teacher from South Korea. I majored Korean linguistics and literature in Yonsei University in Korea and I've been teaching Korean to both Koreans and foreigners for many years. I've been traveling the world for several years and I’ve met and communicated with people from different nationalities and cultural backgrounds.
I love learning languages too, I learnt English, Japanese, Mandarin, Spanish, French, Swedish and little bit of many languages of the countries that I traveled and this make me understand differences between other languages and Korean, in a linguistic way and cultural way.
Me as a Teacher
I have a degree in Korean linguistics and literature and hold a Certificate of Korean Language Teacher, which is internationally recognized. Currently I'm teaching in Korean Culture centre in Sydney, Australia and it's a really diverse class, I enjoy a lot teaching and meeting different students from all over the world and italki is great platform for that.
I’ve been teaching Korean to international students, middle school and high school students for over 7 years. I am experienced in communication and teaching all ages and all levels. I pursue pedagogical and methodical class but at the same time fun and engaging!

I enjoy classes with 수 선생님, as they are always well structured and fit very well my current level of Korean, at the same time pushing me to do more and learn something new step by step. What I find helpful is that she has a lot of experience with different cultures and languages, and as a result, she is open and understands the process of learning a new language and knows how she can help you improve. Therefore, I will keep learning with 수선생님!

As usual, 수 선생님 was wonderful. Her classes are always right at my level, while still pushing and expecting more from me. It's very motivating and helpful. I've found myself walking around and making sentences in my house about what I'm doing as I'm gaining confidence in actually constructing sentences and speaking the language. I was definitely not doing that a month ago. I intend to be a student with 수 for a long time. 감사합니다!

I had only spoken to another person in Korean twice before we started our lessons but Su 선생님 is helping to grow my confidence and keeps me laughing at my dumb mistakes. Su is really good at explaining the subtle differences in meaning/usage etc. for different words, particles, or grammar structures and is quickly helping me fill in any gaps I have in those areas from self-studying. Our lessons are a highlight in my week.

I always enjoy my lessons with 수 선생님, and I always feel comfortable attempting to speak in Korean for the majority of the lesson- meaning I have no anxiety making mistakes as we always go over them constructively 😊 Would recommend 100%

Overall, I would highly recommend Ms. SU to anyone interested in learning Korean, whether you're a complete beginner or looking to improve your existing skills. The quality of instruction, engaging content, and supportive learning environment make it a fantastic choice for language learners of all levels. I'm feling more confident and inspired to continue my journey in mastering the Korean language, thanks to the wonderful experience I had.
