----------About the Lesson---------------------
The main focus will be on "Speaking."

A. We want you to experience the joy of speaking Japanese through free talk. Just learning words from manga is not easy to understand what natives say in daily life. I will assist you in learning vocabulary and acquiring natural expressions by speaking with native Japanese speakers.

I love cultural exchange and have a friendly personality. Having traveled to various countries and learning German, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language firsthand. This makes me happy to be able to help you learn Japanese. I look forward to the day when we can have enjoyable conversations together.

Hello, Namaste, नमस्ते , My name is Ritu, and I'm from New Delhi, the capital city of India.

⭐ Sanskrit is the oldest, purest and most systematic language in the world.
⭐NASA has described Sanskrit as the best language for computers. NASA has been researching on 60,000 Sanskrit manuscripts written on palm leaves, to decipher the ancient technologies from the manuscripts.
⭐A mantra is a word, or a phrase chanted repeatedly to invoke spiritual qualities. The Sanskrit root word ‘manas’ translates as mind, and ‘tra’ means instrument or tool.

Speak Natural and Polite Korean with a Native Tutor✅ Want to speak polite and natural Korean like a native?
People often get so caught up in the methodology of learning Korean language, but it's not about what method you use. It's about how much input you get and how often you practice it. Many Korean textbooks for foreign learners include expressions that sound unnatural or even rude in real conversations. I'll help you avoid these and speak clearly and respectfully, just like real Koreans do.
✅ Who is this tutor and what is this session?
I'm Yeon, a native Korean tutor with 4 years of experience and an intermediate level of English. In this session, you'll practice Korean through real, structured conversation. The tone is relaxed but focused, with clear guidance and mutual respect. I'll gently correct your sentences and pronunciation as you speak, helping you sound more natural and confident. You'll pick up everyday language that's actually used in real conversations. Advanced learners can also work on tone, nuance, and fluency. This session is for respectful, sincere learners at any level.
✅ What you'll get:
- Real-time speaking practice with live corrections
- Natural and polite Korean expressions
- Sentence-building and grammar guidance
- Gentle correction during conversation
- Simple review notes after each session
- Cultural context from a native speaker
- Zoom sessions from anywhere
✅ Lessons are online via Zoom.
- I'm in Korea. (KST time zone)
- Please be on time so we can use the full 60 minutes efficiently.
- Please contact me before booking to schedule your session time.
Let's build your Korean step by step. As your tutor, I'll guide you with care!
Thank you,
Yeon
