I enjoy teaching as I can meet people from various backgrounds. I consider myself quite a patient & encouraging teacher and use a various teaching method based on the students’ personality & needs.
I understand people do have different expectations & commitments about foreign language learning, but I hope you understand that you need to do a certain amount of work before & after class. I can help you to learn more efficiently and effectively.

Reviews (4)
My lessons with Jo have been nothing but absolutely great, I have learned so much since I started nearly a year ago! She really takes care of you and makes sure you understand and adapts the lessons to your learning style, which I appreciate, definitely give it a go with Jo if you're trying to learn Korean.
I've been attending weekly lessons with Jo for almost two years now. Jo is a very organised teacher and her lessons are very well-structured, which I greatly appreciate. Despite not having anyone else to speak Korean to, I feel like I've made a lot of progress. I highly recommend Jo as a Korean teacher!
My son has been taking Korean classes from Jo for almost 2 years. Jo is a professional teacher with experiences. She takes each class seriously. Her systemic teaching methods gives my son a good knowledge on reading and writing. Thanks.
I've been doing Korean language lessons with Jo for some time already and really enjoy them.
My goal is to be able to use Korean in everyday situations as I am interested in Korean culture and modern life.
Jo's methods of teaching are structured, systematic and effective. I like that Jo gives me homework and checks it all the time. There is a good mix of speaking, listening, grammar and writing exercises.
Jo encourages me to speak Korean and I feel more confident about it.

Korean classes A1-B1 level and reinforcement Korean classes for EAO students
Hi, I have a master's degree in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language and a degree in East Asian Studies with a mention in Korea from the University of Malaga.
I give Spanish and Korean classes, both for reinforcement for EAO students and for those who want to start studying. Both in person and online. In the classes I work above all with a communicative and grammatical approach in a dynamic and fun way.
I have lived for more than two years in Korea. My first contact with Korea was in 2017 after doing a summer course at Sungkyunkwan University and then I went as an exchange student at the University of Seoul and Kyungpook National University (2021-22), in the latter I did the language program Korean from TOPIK level 3 to 5 (B1-C1)
I am also accredited by the Instituto Cervantes as a DELE examiner for levels A1-A2-B1-B2, School A1+A2/B1. I have taught Korean for several years and taught Spanish at the University of Seoul and at an academy in Osaka. I currently work as a tenured professor in a school accredited by the Instituto Cervantes.
In the case of online classes, all the material will be provided to you by email or Google Classroom. Personalized tracking. Get feedback and solve all your doubts at any time (I guarantee a response in less than 24 hours). If you want to follow a specific book, don't hesitate to tell me.
Do not hesitate to contact me!
Siddhi
안녕하세요! Korean Language Classes for all levels from Beginner's through Advanced
Hi, my name is Siddhi and I'm here to help you learn Korean. I'm a certified Korean Language Trainer and I’m currently taking classes on online mode. I have been teaching Korean for over 3 years now and I’ve taught a wide range of students, including children, teenagers, and adults.
My adult students are from different professional backgrounds and I enjoy integrating relevant topics into our classes so that you will be able to use them in daily conversations. I try to make the classes a fun and immersive language experience as I believe, that the best way of learning a language is to have the student speak as much as possible so that they feel more comfortable using it in different types of contexts and experiences. My classes are also customized, catering to the student's needs after assessing their proficiency at the language. Different methods like audio-visual learning, reading and speaking are used as well to assist the learning process.
Hope to see you soon!^^
Sophie
Professional Native Korean Instructor in Bangkok - All levels & ages
안녕하세요, I am Sophie from Korea and currently teaching Korean language in Bangkok, Thailand. If you are learning Korean with me, I guarantee that you will get 100% customized lessons. I care every single students by asking their background, interests, goal and etc to get to know them for setting up a curriculum. My class is going to focus on mostly conversation not just grammar and reading because I want you to use at least one expression after the class. You need classes because you want to speak Korean not just studying Korean grammars, right? But, of course, I will definitely cover the fundamental grammars by effective and fun way.
I am available both in-person and online classes. If we could schedule with the time difference, I look forward to teaching students all over the world!

Easy Korean Lessons/Any level/ Living Culture (Online, Cheonan, Asan)
Hello, I'm a native Korean tutor who lives in Korea. I have been teaching Korean to English speakers on Zoom for 3 years as a private tutor.
I am here to help you learn Korean, regardless of your experience level or goals. In my lessons, you will learn how to make sentences correctly in Korean. You will learn to speak Korean fluently and understand Korean grammar and vocabulary. Additionally, I will provide you with insights into Korean culture and daily life.
I use Zoom for my lessons and communicate in basic English during the lessons. Please note that I am in the Korean Standard Time (KST). As a lover of the Korean language and culture, I strive to make my lessons enjoyable for my students. So don't worry, we'll have a great time learning together.
If you are punctual and passionate about learning, then I would be happy to have you as my student. But if that doesn't describe you, my lessons might not be the best fit. Feel free to message me when you're ready to start. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Best wishes,

Koreaanse cursus/Online Korean/Easy Korean/Let's have fun learning Korean!/TOPIK 1
Hello everyone,
I'm Sanghee and my native language is Korean.
I have a certificate of Korean teacher training program and almost 4 years of teaching experience.
I've taught many different students from other countries.
Regarding the class I'd like to ask your Korean level first.
If you don't know any Korean we can start learning the Korean alphabet "Hangul"
After that, the class will be focused on your level and pace.
I use Korean language school book for the class so you can learn step by step.
I give you many chances to speak Korean every lesson so we can practice talking in Korean.
Every lesson consists of speaking, reading, writing and listening (Language skills)
Grammar & vocabs too. You can improve your Korean skill.
Besides we can talk about Korean culture as well.
As for the class, we can find the best time for the both of us.
*You can ask for a group class with your friends or family (Same Level)*
Thanks for reading and hope to see you soon.
감사합니다!

Are you finding a native Korean teacher who can be your friend? That's me!
Do you have trouble with improving Korean because you don't have anyone to talk with? Or do you want to understand k-drama, k-culture more deeply? Or are you just interested in learning Korean? Welcome!
First, I will check your current level and your goal or what you want to learn from me, then I will choose whether or not to use books, in what level, what topics, etc.
I am really careful about how to teach according to your personal level and goal.
- If this is the first time learn Korean
: alphabet
: basic expressions (at restaurant, at market, how to ask the way,...)
: let's try singing along K-pop!
- beginner
: learning daily expressions
: through k-drama
: start to make your own sentences
- intermediate
: basically try to say whatever you want
- advanced
: let's discuss!
Every class will be included the time to understand about Korean culture from traditional things to trendy things. (I'm young! hehe)
Anything you want (ex) more voca, grammar, ...) can be added in class.
*Class will be taught in Korean or English.
Min
Korean lessons for all levels with a native Korean teacher
My name is Min and I come from South Korea.
I teach Korean language since 2014, I started with some students in Korea and then I went to Brussels where I lived for 3 years and I met more than 20 students from different backgrounds by several individual courses.
I stay in Korea for the time being and continue my skype or facetime lessons, an always efficient way to teach language classes anytime and anywhere.
If you have no basis in this language, you will also have precise explanations in English or French. All my grammatical materials are ready in both languages :)
If you have already learned the language by yourself, with other tutors, your friends, the TV show, the course will start with a level that you agree. Or preparation of Korean exams is also possible. (Topik, Bac, Korean interviews, writing of academic or professional texts etc)
In addition, I offer you plenty of exercises and homework that work perfectly for you. (grammatical exercises, lists of vocabularies, debate topics, test production, etc.)

Let's talk about any topics you want to improve your speaking ability!
When learning a foreign language, practicing speaking as much as possible is an important method to learn a language fast. This course is designed for intermediate students who can read Korean and can make simple sentences in Korean. And it is for students who want to practice speaking and improve their speaking level. Students or I can choose a topic such as social issues, dramas, movies, music, family, life, etc. and talk about it freely. Or I will prepare reading materials for reading and we can discuss it. They will learn new vocabulary, expressions, and idioms, etc. and definitely improve their speaking ability.
Byeongsu
Naturally learn Korean, much like a child learns their mother tongue from their parents! From Native Korean.
우리 수업은 이렇게 진행될 거예요!
I plan to integrate the techniques of drama education into teaching Korean! It's like teaching a baby their mother tongue! I will teach every lesson Korean through actions and acting out situations. Learning this way will make Korean feel much more familiar in your daily life compared to learning through textbooks and grammar.
Just like teaching a native language to a child, our lessons will be fun and playful, and slow. So, let go of the idea that 'studying means sitting at a desk and memorizing words and grammar.' We will progress together and create our own materials.
+모든 수업은 한국어로 진행됩니다. 하지만 절대로 걱정하지 마세요! 아주 천천히 그리고 이해할 수 있는 몸 동작으로 진행해서 여러분들 모두 이해할 수 있을거 니까요!
-For Basic level:
We will start from the very basic level, focusing on Korean alphabet spelling (ㄱ,ㄴ,ㄷ,ㄹ, ㅏ,ㅑ,ㅓ,ㅕ ...) and pronunciation. We will emphasize speaking!
- For Beginner level:
we will use children's storybooks and short videos (the ones I actually watched and grew up with) as learning tools. Up to the beginner level, we will concentrate on listening and speaking rather than writing. We all learn by listening and speaking when we are babies.
- For intermediate level:
we will use short novels and movies. From intermediate level onwards, we will practice listening and writing down what we hear, along with expressing our thoughts in a diary.
-For advanced level:
Even at the advanced level, the format will be similar to the intermediate level, with a focus on 10 minutes of conversation. We will record these conversations and transcribe them, making improvements for more natural expressions!

Learning&Practising Korean with native Korean speaker! :)
I'm a native Korean speaker, with a BA degree in Korean language&literature, a MA degree in Andragogy.
I do have some experiences of teaching Korean to foreign friends and exchange students, and since I started to teach Korean from early 2022, I have some students who have been continuing learning Korean with me.
My class can be flexible based on your needs, for example, I can provide you :
-Learning about Korean culture
(e.g. culture in general, History, Society, and K-pop, K-drama, K-movie etc.)
-Improving your Speaking&Writing skills
-Learning basic Korean (Grammar, speaking, writing etc/I do have the learning materials)
-Or based on any other learning needs that you have, feel free to tell me!
This is basically one-on one teaching, so the curriculum and teaching style can be different depend on your desires, goals, levels, background knowledge&experience etc.
If you are interested, feel free to let me know and we can discuss how can we do our learning journey.
I'm happy to hear about your desires, needs and feedback.

Heewon
Korean lessons for beginners to advanced students, taught by a native Korean who has great experience in teaching the Korean language
Hi, I’m Heewon from South Korea and I currently study music in the Netherlands.
In Korea I taught exchange students Korean to make their stay more comfortable. Furthermore I taught students all over the world via an online language learning service. This experience showed me how fun teaching is and proved to me my skill in tutoring someone. Plus, having spoken to many Europeans I found some to be intrigued by Korean culture. So with my students I often find myself teaching them a lot about Korea as a country as well.
You can check my teaching skills below.
- Teach the basics of Korean in a cohesive structure to get you going quickly.
- Provide my own materials and documents about grammar, expression and vocabulary, not boring text book.
- Analyze Korean media like real world scenarios and Kpop for keeping learning interesting.
- Tailor lessons specifically to a students skills and goals.
