*Complete Beginner Level (Level 0) Welcome!
*Various Resources - PPTs, Homework, Workbook, Quizlet, and Interactive tools
*You Will Gain Self Confidence and Learn Real Korean.

Are you a complete beginner? That's okay! Let's start with the basics, such as correct pronunciation and conversational Korean skills. I'll help you develop the confidence you need to communicate effectively in Korean.

If you already know the alphabet, I can help you take your Korean to the next level. I use a variety of teaching methods and resources to make learning Korean fun and engaging.

I’ll provide presentations, materials (textbook, news article, video clips, also on your need and interest), and homework to help you succeed.

*You can ask for a group class with your friends or family

[Korean for Beginners]
Are you a complete beginner? No worries. Let's start by studying the correct pronunciation of sounds step by step, beginning with the 10 vowels: ᅡ, ᅣ, ᅥ, ᅧ, ᅩ, ᅭ, ᅮ, ᅲ, ᅳ.

I will guide you on how to pronounce them correctly, because good pronunciation is essential for learning any language. By starting with the fundamentals, we can make learning Korean easier and smoother. So, let's get started and master these important sounds together!

[Conversational Korean]
I am a big fan of Korean dramas, and I will use them as examples to show you how Korean is spoken in real life. This will help us develop a deeper understanding of the language and its nuances.

I will teach you how to speak Korean in both formal and informal settings, so that you can understand real Korean more effectively. My lessons are primarily designed for those who wish to improve their conversational Korean skills, and I will teach you how to speak in a fluent and natural way. Additionally, I will provide you with many expressions and phrases commonly used by native speakers to help you sound more like one.

I am also happy to assist with written Korean, whenever a student requires it.

Hello everyone! Bonjour à tous!
My name is Sujin, and I’m from Korea. Thank you for clicking on my ad! Many students have been able to start speaking Korean thanks to my lessons, and the next one to succeed could be you!

I have taught over a hundred students in France, and now I’m excited to meet new students here in the Netherlands. Whether you’re a complete beginner or want to improve your skills, my lessons are tailored to your pace and goals.

-----------------------------------

Course Presentation:

1) Conversation-focused lessons:
The main reason for learning a foreign language is usually to communicate. Even students who had no prior knowledge of Korean can now converse exclusively in Korean with me. We practice forming natural sentences, slowly and at each student’s own pace.

2) Homework and assessments:
Without homework or tests, it is very difficult to make progress in a language. I assign homework tailored to each student’s level and pace, and give a small vocabulary quiz at the end of each chapter. (During very busy periods, the amount of homework is adjusted, so don’t worry!)

3) Culture:
Language is closely connected to culture. In my lessons, we cover various topics related to Korean society, culture, history, economy, and politics.

Full course details can be explained during the first lesson :)

Hi there. I've lived in three continents—growing up in Seoul, living across various states in the U.S., and experiencing life in Europe—I’ve embraced the rich diversity of cultures firsthand. Long before “cultural learning” became a popular term, I understood that learning a language means immersing yourself in its culture.

In my classes, you won’t just memorize vocabulary or grammar—you’ll explore the beauty, traditions, and stories behind the Korean language. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced learner, I tailor lessons to your unique goals and pace, making learning effective, enjoyable, and meaningful.

Join me on a journey that brings Korean to life—beyond words, into the heart of the culture.
