About me
Hello, I’m Jumi, a Korean tutor. I have over 8 years of experience in language teaching, and I have taught a wide range of students, from elementary school children to adults, in academy settings. I also have experience teaching Korean pronunciation and basic expressions to international students for about 6 months at a college in Australia.
My lessons focus on speaking practice and real conversation. My goal is to help students actually use Korean in real-life situations.
I can also teach and explain in English, so even complete beginners can start learning comfortably.
I have over 8 years of experience teaching languages to a wide range of students. In academy settings, I have taught learners of different ages, from elementary school children to adults, and I have developed the ability to adjust my explanations based on each student’s level and learning pace. I also have experience in curriculum design and class management, which helps me create well-structured and effective lessons.
I can support my teaching with English, so I can explain difficult points in a simple and clear way. For young learners, I use English to help them feel comfortable and learn Korean naturally without stress.
At a college in Australia, I taught Korean to international students, focusing on pronunciation and basic expressions. My lessons were centered on speaking practice, giving students many chances to speak and use Korean in real situations. Based on this experience, I believe that active speaking is the most important part of learning a language.
I am also a language learner who started studying a foreign language again from the basics as an adult. Because of this, I understand well where learners usually feel difficulties. I believe that the most important part of learning Korean is actually speaking and practicing it.
In my lessons, I create a comfortable environment where students can speak comfortably and practice as much as possible. I correct unnatural expressions and pronunciation right away, and we focus on expressions that real Korean people use in daily life. My goal is to help students speak Korean with more confidence step by step.
If you want to master Korean, join my class and experience natural conversation with me. You will learn useful expressions and pronunciation for real-life situations and build your confidence. I am ready to help you achieve your goals!

Teacher Jumi personalizes lessons very well! I am currently seeking to improve my Korean for professional use and I do not regret choosing her. She gradually journeys me to improvement, at a pace in accordance with my capacity, without compromising what I need to learn to help me at work. I enjoy learning with her. When I first chose her, I was new to LearnZone so I didn't know teacher profiles had videos. But after watching her video now and after three lessons, I can vouch that everything she promised is true. You really do feel steady progress after every lesson, and she really does have a deep understanding of her student's learning needs! What she taught me has been relevant to my work and I get to apply them almost immediately.

I’ve had a really positive experience learning with 주미 선생님 . She is patient, engaging, and dedicated to helping me improve. She consistently provides thoughtful feedback on my homework and takes the time to explain what I can work on, which has helped me make steady progress. During lessons, she often responds in Korean even when I speak in English, guiding me to express myself more naturally and helping me learn faster. Her classes are well-tailored to my individual needs, and she supplements them with additional materials like videos to reinforce learning. She has also been very helpful in improving my pronunciation. I genuinely enjoy our sessions and always look forward to learning more with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in picking up Korean!

She is a very understanding teacher. Her teaching style is clear and accessible, and I really appreciate her patience and willingness to listen to my needs and feedback. Beyond the curriculum, she often shares and chats comfortably about daily life, which makes the sessions feel very personal. Her materials are also detailed and easy to read. After every lesson, she provides careful feedback on my homework and she is always ready to answer any extra questions. I feel so lucky to have her as my teacher. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great learning experience!
