Nu
BS Saint Louis University-Main Campus
2+ Years Tutoring

I graduated from Saint Louis University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology. Since then, I took the DAT exam and received a very high score, which allowed me to secure interviews from multiple Dental Schools across the country. I'm ready and willing to share the studying skills I acquired during my academic career to make my students' lives easier and achieve success. I was a biology and chemistry tutor at St. Louis Community College, where I led both group study sessions and 1-on-1 tutoring sessions. Every student on this campus had different learning styles and academic backgrounds. Therefore, I adapted my teaching styles to suit each student and make the sessions as efficient as possible. I also have experience tutoring children, including those with learning disabilities. I enjoy tutoring science the most. I love seeing the twinkle in the eye when my students have an "Aha" moment after understanding a new concept, which is which I love my job as a tutor. During my free time, I go to community services, watch soccer, and play guitar.

Hi, I'm Soo Young Lee, your Korean teacher. I have been teaching Korean for over five years, and I currently teach Korean to children in the United States. I also teach Korean in English online to students from various countries. I believe it is very important to help students learn Korean in a way that is easy, enjoyable, and practical.

Michelle
BA Tufts University
1+ Years Tutoring

Michelle grew up bilingual in Korean and English, which gives her an intuitive sense of where English speakers get tripped up — especially with verb conjugation patterns and the cultural context behind choosing the right speech level in conversation. Her International Relations degree from Tufts deepened that cross-cultural awareness, making her particularly effective at explaining not just how Korean works grammatically, but why certain expressions carry the weight they do.

Sophia
PhD University at Buffalo • BA University at Buffalo
1+ Years Tutoring

Sophia's pharmacy doctorate required years of dense scientific reading and precise technical communication — skills she now channels into teaching Korean at the beginner level, where careful attention to hangul syllable blocks and basic sentence patterns makes all the difference early on. She keeps lessons relaxed and conversational, building vocabulary and grammar fundamentals at a pace that doesn't overwhelm new learners.

Sean
MS Columbia University in the City of New York • BA University of California Los Angeles
1+ Years Tutoring

Sean's mathematics and MBA background might seem unrelated to Korean, but his analytical mindset lends itself well to breaking down the language's logical grammar system — particularly how particles and verb conjugations follow consistent, rule-based patterns. He approaches Korean the way he'd approach a math problem: identify the structure, learn the rules, then apply them in increasingly complex contexts.

Kevin
BA Cornell University
14+ Years Tutoring

Learning Korean means tackling Hangul, honorific speech levels, and a sentence structure that puts the verb at the end — all of which can feel disorienting for English speakers. Kevin walks students through these building blocks systematically, connecting grammar patterns to real conversational contexts so the language starts to feel logical rather than foreign.
