Now I can even write and read in Korean. She is very thorough and makes sure you understand the lessons before moving on. Jinah goes over formal and informal Korean rules as well as the basics of proper conjugation. I will continue my lessons with Jinah since I am learning a whole lot from her. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn the Korean Language. She even goes over some aspects of Korean culture, which is a plus. 감사합니다

1 Korean lesson

During our class today, I gained a much deeper understanding of Korean culture. For instance, we talked about the most recent Korean trends, the different meanings behind various Korean cuisines, and Korean family values. It was amazing to have gained so much knowledge in such a short time! I feel like I’ve learned more today than all of my previous lessons with other instructors combined. I am very happy that I found her on Wyzant.
Calum C.

11 Korean lessons

Jinah is very a positive and friendly person and she is patient with my slow adult brain! She usually supplements the learning material with examples and extra vocabulary which could be useful to me in my world. This gives me a chance to actually use my Korean, showing off to my Korean friends, and more importantly impressing my Korean wife! I can highly recommend Jinah as a Korean tutor.
