*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.

This course is perfect for learners of all ages, from young children taking their first steps in language learning to adults aiming to speak Chinese confidently for work or travel. Early exposure is especially powerful — babies and young children absorb language faster than at any other time — but it’s never too late to start.

Chinese is more than words; it’s culture. As a graduate student in linguistics, I integrate cultural insights into every lesson, so you not only speak Chinese but also understand the context behind it, making your language sound natural and authentic.

Whether you want to:

Build a strong foundation as a beginner

Learn a second language for personal growth

Prepare for business conversations in China

Explore Chinese culture beyond textbooks

...this course is designed to help you succeed.

With C1-level English, I explain everything clearly, so you never feel lost or confused. By the end of the program, you will communicate in real-life situations with confidence and accuracy.

Learning Chinese is challenging at first, but the reward is immense, imagine reading and writing Chinese characters fluently and confidently. This is not just learning a language; it’s investing in yourself and your future.
