Native Korean Tutor | 20 Years in Europe | Practical, Business & Personalized Korean Hello! I'm a native Korean speaker but have spent nearly 20 years living in Europe. Having experienced both Korean and European cultures firsthand, I can explain not only the Korean language but also the culture, mindset, and way of thinking behind it in fluent English. Over the past 12 years, I've built my career in global companies, working for both American multinational corporations and one of Korea's largest companies alongside colleagues from diverse cultural backgrounds. Having often served as a bridge between Korean and international cultures, I can help you understand not only everyday Korean but also the practical Korean used in professional and business settings, with clear explanations in English. Learning a new language is about much more than memorizing vocabulary and grammar. To speak naturally, you also need to understand the culture, context, and nuances that shape the language. Having lived abroad for many years myself, I've come to re-discover and understand the Korean language and culture through the eyes of non-Koreans. Because of that, I understand where learners struggle, why certain expressions are confusing, and how to explain them in a way that makes sense. Whether you want to better understand your favorite K-content, communicate more naturally with Korean friends or your partner, prepare to study or work in Korea, or develop professional Korean for the workplace, I'd be delighted to help you on your learning journey.

๐To touch the mind, invariably we must first touch the heart; learning Korean is no different.๐ The goal of my teaching is to help learners express their thoughts and emotions through language, communicate effectively with others, and build meaningful relationships through mutual understanding. I always focus on each learnerโs individual language development and personal interests, ensuring that every lesson is both engaging and relevant. Because I believe that each learnerโs Korean proficiency and preferred learning style are equally important, I tailor the pace and structure of my lessons to suit their abilities. When a student has a particular learning method that works best for them, I do my best to incorporate it to maximize their progress and confidence.

Slow Speaker, Patient Listener โHeโs FRIENDLY, PATIENT and KNOWLEDGEABLEโ Iโve taught 3,000+ lessons to 200+ students. On average, one student took about 15 lessons with me, which is the highest number among other teachers. (Not to brag but) a lot of my regular students have taken over 100 classes. Weโve become good friends and not just the usual teacher-student relationship. So, Iโm really happy about that. I liked Korean class when I was young. I was especially good at presentations and writing. I like to talk about the differences between similar Korean expressions and grammar points by explaining their nuances. Thatโs why Iโm a teacher of other Korean teachers.

My mother-tongue is Korean. But I've learned English, Japanese and Chinese. So I truly understand how difficult learning languages is. I'm very positive, patient and enthusiastic. And I prepare each lesson only for A student. For example, if a student has a tendency to make mistakes using the present perfect, I usually prepare more focused lessons that he or she can repeatedly practice using the present perfect. I believe you could learn more through the mistakes that you make. And I will be there for you to correct or coach whenever you need it. You are going to be very very proud of yourself in the end. Let's have fun learning!!

From your first Hangul letter to advanced, critical discussion. Hello, I'm Eujin. What I enjoy most in teaching Korean is something beyond the language itself โ every learner brings their own way of thinking, their own experiences, their own way of sensing and learning. I keep learning something new from that. I majored in fine arts and media criticism. I've also had the privilege of learning English, Mandarin, Thai, and Sign Language while moving between China and Thailand. Those experiences pushed me to sit with the friction between a hunger for critical conversation and discourse, and the limits of whatever language I was learning at the time. That struggle and friction is what I teach from. Whether you're starting from your very first Hangul letter or already deep into Korean, the work is the same: we build your Korean out of your own life โ your work, your routines, the things you actually need to say โ and, as you go further, use a critical question, a text, or an image as a trigger to discuss society, art, industry, and your own field. So however far along you are, I'll meet you as someone already thinking and critiquing your way through an entirely new language system.
