I tutor languages (specifically Korean and ESL) and data analysis (primarily in R and Python).

I am a native Korean speaker and have experience tutoring ESL to middle and high school students in Korea during the summers between 2014 and 2017. In the US, I have 4 years of teaching various political/social science courses (undergraduate level).

Born in Korea, I spent the first half of my life there, and have been in the states since middle school. While I completed the remainder of my (higher) education here, I have visited Korea frequently and some experience working/volunteering there as well, in addition to the aforementioned tutoring experience. I strongly believe that meaningful acquisition of any language must be done through repeated exposure/experience and having fun. I am thus eager to help you achieve your learning goal(s) in the most stress-free manner!

While I would be happy to tutor other listed/qualified areas with a PhD in political science (specializing in quantitative research methods and political psychology) and other relevant experience, I would like to primarily focus on tutoring Korean, as well as R and Python for data analysis, at the moment.

I received a Ph.D. (Political Psychology and Quantitative Research Methods) from Stony Brook University in May of 2025; my doctoral research advanced our knowledge of inter-group dynamics and the impacts of representation and party rhetoric, providing insights for communication strategies directly relevant to elected officials and businesses.

Korean

Korean

As a native Korean speaker born and raised in South Korea, I have a deep understanding of Korean language. After coming to the U.S., I have visited back to Korea several times (in the summers) and tutored students of various ages and backgrounds each time I visited, helping them achieve their language goals, as well as four years of teaching undergraduate students in the US (though not Korean). My teaching approach is tailored to each student’s needs, with a strong emphasis on practical conversation skills and cultural context. I am passionate about making Korean accessible and enjoyable, drawing on my personal experience as a bilingual speaker and my commitment to student success.
