I would love to provide quality classes to students who want to learn and understand Korean. My goal is not to just learn grammar and sentences, but to teach practical language that can be used in real life (K-foods, drama, culture, K-pops etc.) across language and culture, so that students will want to go to Korea someday.I can teach from beginner level to expert level to meet the needs of the students.

Upon graduating, I applied for DPhil in Systems Biology at Oxford University, and it was during this doctorate degree that I had many teaching opportunities.My first teaching experience began as a junior lab demonstrator for two years in Teaching Lab at Oxford University (2011-2013)....

Frequently
asked questions

What is the First Lesson Guarantee?

We want you to love your learning experience. Our First Lesson Guarantee means that if you're not completely satisfied with your first lesson, we'll find you another tutor for free. It's our commitment to helping you find the perfect match.

Do I need any special software to learn Korean?

No special equipment is needed! All you need is a device with a webcam and microphone (like a laptop, tablet, or smartphone) and a stable internet connection. Our platform has everything else you need, including a virtual whiteboard and messaging.

How much does an online Korean tutor cost?

The price of a Korean tutor varies based on their experience and qualifications. You can browse tutor profiles to see their individual rates, which are clearly listed. Many tutors offer a discount for block bookings.

Is online tutoring good for absolute beginners in Korean?

Absolutely! It's one of the best ways to start. A tutor can provide a solid foundation in the Hangul alphabet, correct your pronunciation from day one, and guide you through the initial complexities of grammar, setting you up for success.

How do I find the right Korean tutor for me?

You can use our search filters to narrow down tutors by price, availability, and expertise. Watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other students, and message them directly to discuss your learning goals before booking.

How often should I have Korean lessons?

Consistency is key. Most students find that one or two lessons per week is ideal for making steady progress without feeling overwhelmed. You can discuss the best frequency with your tutor based on your schedule and goals.

Are the tutors native Korean speakers?

We have a diverse range of tutors, including many native Korean speakers as well as fluent speakers who are experts in teaching Korean as a foreign language. You can check each tutor's profile for their specific background and qualifications.

Can a tutor help me prepare for the TOPIK test?

Yes, many of our Korean tutors have experience helping students prepare for the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK). They can focus on exam-specific vocabulary, grammar, and test-taking strategies. Check tutor profiles for this speciality.

What will we cover in the first lesson?

Your first lesson is a great opportunity for the tutor to assess your current level, understand your motivations for learning Korean, and discuss your goals. You'll likely dive into some basics and come away with a clear plan for future lessons.

How long will it take to become conversational in Korean?

This varies for every learner, but working with a tutor significantly speeds up the process. They provide focused, personalised instruction that helps you overcome hurdles faster than self-study alone.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person tutoring?

Yes! Many students find it even more effective. With features like screen sharing, digital whiteboards, and the ability to record sessions for review, online tutoring provides a rich and convenient learning environment.
