June
BA Boston University
5+ Years Tutoring

June is a fluent Korean speaker with experience teaching the language to elementary and middle school students, so she understands how to introduce hangul, sentence structure, and honorific levels in a way that doesn't overwhelm beginners. She adjusts her approach depending on whether a student is learning Korean for heritage reasons, K-culture interest, or academic credit — because each motivation calls for a different starting point.

Ju
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
4+ Years Tutoring

I am a undergraduate freshman of the University of Michigan, studying business at the Ross School of Business. Working together with students and having a good time while seeing steady improvements has proven to provide me great joy. I believe that communication and relationship building is crucial for students to open up about their struggles and also for me to identify problems they don't realize they can improve on, so this is a key aspect of all of my lessons. During my free time, I enjoy playing sports or snacking on desserts while binge-watching Friends!

Her approach connects grammar patterns to real usage so vocabulary and sentence structure stick beyond flashcard drills.

Grace
MS The University of Chicago • BA The University of Chicago
8+ Years Tutoring

Grace scored high enough on the SAT Subject Test in Korean with Listening to tutor the language at multiple levels, from hangul basics and sentence structure to more nuanced reading and conversational fluency.

Andrew
BA University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
9+ Years Tutoring

Learning Korean means tackling Hangul, sentence-ending particles, and an honorific system that changes depending on who you're talking to. Andrew's linguistics degree gives him a structural understanding of how Korean grammar works at a deep level, making it easier to explain why particles like 은/는 and 이/가 behave differently even though both can mark a subject.

Chang
AB University of Waterloo
2+ Years Tutoring

I graduated from Mechatronics Engineering in University of Waterloo located in Canada, and am currently enrolled in Masters program, researching stochastic systems and computational neuroscience in University of Toronto. Currently, I am qualifed to teach computer programming, with a focus on Python language, but am able to transfer my skills to other languages. As someone that started programming later compared to my peers in university, I constantly remind myself on how difficult the initial learning curve was in programming, and aim to use this as an advantage to guide my future students into the world of programming in an interesting way, where they can enjoy the learning process and challenges, instead of being frustrated. Whether you want to learn for school, or just personal reasons, I believe that I can offer a tailored experience for teaching computer programming. I am also hoping to get qualified to teach mathematics, especially linear algebra. As an added bonus, I am also willing to share my knowledge in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence as it is the field that I have a lot of experience in. Teaching is not just a trasfer of knowledge, but aiding the students in making a concept their own, so that they have freedom to use it for different applications. I will try my absolute best to make what seems like a difficult topics, your own!
