I began studying Korean after turning 40, so I truly understand how hard it can be to learn a new language and stay motivated—especially as an adult. That’s why I place great importance on each student’s individual pace, helping them learn in a way that’s relaxed, enjoyable, and sustainable. I also try to create a safe, encouraging atmosphere where students feel free to make mistakes and keep trying. Even when words don’t come right away, I’m here to support you gently and patiently as you find them.
