Set the right expectations from Lesson 1 and patiently went over the material until I grasped it. Supplemented the lesson with homework and the textbook. Really enjoyed the session with her.

If you're serious about learning Korean, Ms Kim might the choice for you. So far, all my lessons have been very structured and well organized. I've always come away satisfied with the lesson, and have already learnt a lot. =)

First lesson with my new textbook. Very happy about the choice of textbook (and workbook) so far, It includes many, many exercises - so ample opportunity to get familiar with new grammar concepts. The additional helpful remarks by Ms Kim round it off perfectly.

Haven't yet received my textbook. But Ms. Kim gives great example sentences for new grammar concepts, so that's maybe just as good!
In America, I have been teaching Korean for all levels of confidency and ages since 2009 for over 14 years teaching over 4000 Korean lessons including lessons taught at Verbalplanet.com. I am currently living in America. Most of my students have become long-term clients learning Korean from me 2~10 years. : Business men, diplomats, students who need private tutoring who are taking or finished a Korean language course at college/university, have plans to study abroad in Korea, and are preparing for the TOPIK, which is the Test of Proficiency in Korean. As a NATIVE KOREAN TEACHER, I have also worked as a " Korean Language Linguist " and " Korean Language Consultant" for American Language Learning Software and Courses Company in charge of Proof Reading for Korean e-Workbook. I was born, raised in Seoul, the capital city of South Korea . I received a B.S. degree in Pharmacy in Seoul, Korea. You can level up your Korean through clear, full understanding communication with experienced NATIVE KOREAN TEACHER. : No matter why you need to learn Korean, understanding everything clearly ( not by guess) is so important from the beginning. Before I moved to America I had operated and managed my own International Business Seminar Company for 5 years in Korea about “How to Successfully Conduct Business in Korea”," Investment in Korea" and " Korean Labor Laws & Regulations", to CEOs of Foreign National Companies, Foreign Investors, Embassies, Financial Institutions and Banks , just name of few, facing different business, social, cultural and political organizations. So, I can also introduce Korean culture and the business environment in Korea.
You will learn practical conversational Korean by practicing real life communication and by speaking more than 90 % only Korean, Korean grammar and pronunciation rules etc. You will find yourself utilizing the expressions you learned in Korean naturally, instinctively through instant role playing .
All the teaching materials for each class will be tailor-made depending on the student's learning objectives and Korean language level.
Your class will be much more exciting in a live virtual classroom setting where I can share teaching materials with you.
Let me hear from you soon so we can start an exciting dialog together!
