At this stage, I will recommend the learner find easy books to read in-between classes to help with grammar concepts and vocabulary ๐Ÿฅ‡ Advanced: Focus on conversation on a variety of topics (eg. cultures, politics, science, tv shows). At this stage, I will assign young adult to adult level novels for each learner that matches their own interest โ˜˜๏ธ Korean Courses ๐Ÿฅ‰ Beginner (์ดˆ๊ธ‰): Introduction to Hangul, as well as very basic phrases and grammar concepts.

I will use examples taken from Korean novels and textbooks that helped me in my own journey with Korean. At this stage, I will recommend the learner find easy books to read in-between classes to help with grammar concepts and vocabulary ๐Ÿฅ‡ Advanced (๊ณ ๊ธ‰): At this level, the lesson will be taught using Korean.

Please no student under middle school age (13+). ๐Ÿ‡ My teaching style is varied and depends on the learner. I want to make my courses engaging for everyone, which means I take into consideration the interests and goals of every individual student ๐ŸŽฌ TV and movies: I will go through the dialogue of famous scenes in movies and TV series and help the learner understand ๐Ÿ“š Books and textbooks: Books are a great way to experience culture and language at the same time. I will use books a lot to help the student learn pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary ๐ŸŽค Conversation: speaking a language can only be improved through speaking.

    Jacob is an excellent teacher who speaks clearly and can provide helpful insights. During our first lesson, we discussed pets, and the lesson went smoothly. I gained confidence in speaking.
