I've been taking lessons with Jimin for almost 2 months now and I'm enjoying them so much! She's really kind and patient! So don't be scared if you're a super beginner and never took Korean classes before! <3 This is how her classes look for me: - She always prepares her lessons in advance and will kindly prepare any specific topic you'd like. - During the lessons, she shares her screen and writes everything down in PowerPoint slides so you can easily follow along! She always makes sure you understood everything ^^ - After the lesson, she will send you those slides right away for you to save and calmly review the lesson as much as you want on your own. - You can also contact her at any moment if you have any issues, concerns or suggestions for the following classes. <3 So far, I'm having so much fun <3 지민님, 너무 감사합니다! ^^neeru

Jimin is a wonderful teacher, very dedicated and always concerned about the best way to teach. I have been taking Korean classes for years, but I have always had a lot of difficulty feeling confident to try to converse, but Jimin helped me a lot to deal with that and taught me several things that I also didn't know. The classes were always very good, Jimin is very clear in her explanations and cared about making a lesson that focused on what was important to me at each moment.

I've been studying with Jimin for 5-6 months now and it has been a blast. Jimin is patient and her lessons are fun, interesting and challenging. I was studying on my own initially, but since I began taking lessons with Jimin, i feel like my progress has accelerated. Thank you Jimin!
