⭐️ Welcome to my Korean classroom! I am very excited to meet you.

My classroom is a little pot that contains some happy energy, an encouragement and an excitement for learning. I will be your guide to navigate the complexities of learning a language. I believe steadiness and strong faith in your skills are most important in learning a language. 
There may be ups and downs when learning, and that is okay. Your choice to make a change in this moment is what's important. 

Let's goooo and learn to speak, write and listen in Koreannn! 🌎

⭐️ Recommended for A2 (upper beginner, can read hangul) - C2 (highly advanced) learners. 

In conversation class, 'going with the flow' mindset is the key. 

If this is your first class, we will first get to know each other's background. My class is a safe space, and I have zero judgement towards the 'other'. You can grab a cup of tea or snacks if you like, and we will have fun chatting about many things! 

My favourite conversation topics that you may also be interested!

• Language learning - struggles and tips, steadiness, purpose of learning a language
• Art - modern and contemporary artists, East-Asian art, dialogue between East and West through an artistic medium
• Culture and society - how people have been shaping culture, interesting customs, modern life, social media 
• Relationships and self-development - what is a healthy relationship, thinking about the Other, personality development
• Do you have an interest to share? If you do, I'm happy to listen to it!
