Jooah / 주아

Miss Jooah certainly has a deep knowledge of the Korean language, in fact she understands the logic behind its grammar rules and can destructure the lexicon in all its main and fundamental elements, namely morphology, phonology as well as phonetics and semantics. The fact that she creates her own learning material and constantly updates it allows her to cultivate a mental map which orientates her thoughts and actions and facilitate the retrieval of specific information when needed. Moreover, she also demonstrates a profound understanding of multiple learning theories and she is clearly aware of the cognitive processes which determine the possible learning outcomes. In addition, she is able to have meaningful discussions about various Korean traditional cultural aspects and on ancient, modern and contemporary East Asian history. Last but not least, she implicitly communicates her remarkable sense or work-ethics, her spontaneous patience as well as her natural, effortless kindness.

I’ve been stuck using a lot of beginner grammar in my conversations with people, but Jooah is really helping me to integrate more complex grammar and more natural sentence structure into my speech. The way she has me practice sample sentences, giving me feedback on not only the vocab and grammar, but also on the pronunciation and flow in my speech is so helpful. It’s always embarrassing and difficult when I try to say something in Korean, but the person I’m speaking to doesn’t understand what I’m trying to say. Thanks to Jooah that happens far less often to me these days. She is the best teacher!

Study with Jooah since December last year, I have passed TOPIK 5, caused by skills that teacher told me , I got 80 points in reading test, although the reading test is so difficult. And my writing, listening also be improved. Thank you Teacher Jooah. You gave me a happy learning experience

Truly recommending classes with 주아 씨! She is very patient with me and my skills and explaining everything very clearly and adopted to my way of studying. Classes are always so well prepared, exercise are helping to remember and practice everything I learnt. Truly recommending!

It's been quite some time since my last lesson with 주아 씨 but I am extremely happy to see her once again! I took a break from learning Korean and felt like my speaking skills were slightly rusty, but 주아 씨 made me feel really comfortable even as I stumbled over some of my sentences and forgot basic vocabulary. I appreciate how the entire class was conducted in Korean and how patient she is, as always! 감사합니다~ 다음에 만나요!

Jooah is a teacher who is truly amazing. I am so happy that I found her. During times that I struggle, she is extremely patient with me. She has the ability to make complicated concepts understandable by explaining them clearly. Our classes together are always something I look forward to. -Noel
