Hobbies
I have over 15 years of Korean Japanese and English tutoring experience in Korea, Japan and the US after I obtained a Certificate of Teaching Korean Language Instructor by Yonsei University in Korea. I have helped students learn from basic Korean/Japanese to advanced Korean/Japanese. I have experience working with a private lesson program and group lesson program. I have also professionally tutored for a large group of over 20 students at Language schools/Companies in Japan and US for over 5 years. Through these tutoring and positions, I have learned how to teach each levels and group in the best way. I am passionate about teaching Korean/Japanese and helping students improve in all subjects including speaking, writing and grammar with approaching linguistic knowledge. I was born in Korea and studied in Japan and the US. I am a multilingual speaker (Korean, Japanese, English, French, Spanish, Chinese), so I can understand and teach the best way to learn for foreign Languages. I am a certified language tutor and my students are learning Korean or Japanese usually over 1 - 2 year with me. some of my students went to Korea or Japan for their work or studying even they started to learn Korean or Japanese in hobby of their starting. I can guide you to have fun learning Korean or Japanese language and culture. and if students want to prepare Japanese and Korean Test (JLPT/ TOPIK), I can teach test prep skills.
