Creative ESL teacher for artists, students & storytellers I took my TESOL certificate while I was working on my MFA in Painting. It was my "back up plan", but I have been using it ever since. I love helping students gain confidence and linguistic skills, often alongside other scholastic or academic endeavours. I specialise in academic English and examination preparation, but I also have extensive experience teaching children from the age of 5. I believe that the key to teaching is patience, flexibility, and an understanding of a student's needs. I do not adhere strictly to any particular methodology, as I feel there is no one-size-fits-all approach to teaching.

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end. Let's have fun learning!!

✨키가 자라는 것처럼 영어도 천천히 늡니다!✨ Slow and steady wins the race. There are 3 main factors that I strongly believe are important to language learning. 저는 언어를 배우는 중요한 중요 3가지 요인을 꼭 알아야 될 것 같습니다 1. Learning any language is no different than the way we learned our first language. 외국어를 배우는 것은 우리 모국어를 배우고 익히는 거나 다름이 전혀 없고 터득해야 배운다고 생각합니다 2. Progress is not linear! Some days might feel better than others and that's okay. Just be consistent. 학습은 직선처럼 이루어지지 않고 과정 속에서 오르락내리락하는 순간들이 있습니다 그래서 가장 중요한 것은 바로 꾸준함과 인내심입니다 3. We all need guidance from a trusted instructor to grow and improve. 그렇지만 포기하시지 말고 차근차근 배우면 실력이 늘을 겁니다 제가 학생의 수업 방향을 잘 지도하며 이끌어 드리도록 최선을 다하겠습니다^^

I love teaching because I believe English is what we need to reach our goals in life no matter what we study or what we do since English invaded our lives in every aspect. I also love it because it helps me meet new people and share experiences as communication is the goal of learning any language after all.
