I've always loved my Korean lesson. It is just so useful and every time I feel like I'm learning a lot. The whole process is fun as well! I really really do love it!

Brittany W.

8 Korean lessons

Mrs. Cathyrn is an incredible tutor! She is so patient and really wants you to learn! I am so happy that I found her and I am so excited to keep working with her to learn Korean!

Jon F.

38 Korean lessons

She has helped me grasp many concepts that I couldn't understand when I was trying to learn Korean by myself. She has been very through, understanding, and patient (like when I accidentally said the classroom was delicious) and has been very flexible with my chaotic schedule. I would recommend using Saehee as a tutor if you are trying to learn Korean by yourself with not much luck. And, being a native, she is able to teach on a personal level that a book alone cannot.
