I am a Korean national from Seoul, South Korea who studied in Beijing, China for three years. I am familiar with both cultures. I have taught Chinese in a Korean high school, and I have an MA in Chinese education. I also worked as a Korean/Chinese translator when I was in Korea. My approach is to tailor curriculum based on a well-received textbook. For instance, I will develop an individualized curriculum based on the student's interest. If the student likes Korean movies, then we will use the dialogues in the films as materials to learn the language. If the student is interested in Taekwondo, then we study the terms and cultural background related to it. Overall, I emphasize communication, and relate all lessons to daily life and fun!
