Experienced Native Korean Language / ESL Tutor with a Master's Degree
First and foremost, I was a top 10% Wyzant tutor in 2019 and 2020. I truly love to teach and learn. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
Hello, my name is Jinah, and I originally from Seoul, South Korea. I am a native Korean and have lived in the U.S. for eight years. I am a bilingual (Korean and English). I have over 25 years of teaching experience in Korean and ESL (English as a Second Language). Teaching is my true passion and a calling, and I love to share my mother tongue...

Kind, Helpful & Patient
Jinah is so patient and has a wonderful way of teaching. Even after only a couple lessons, I'm so excited to continue these sessions with her. I strongly recommend her to anyone serious about Korean. She also provides very useful recommendations and resources for furthering an education in Korean. :)

Culture, Citizenship, Lifestyle
We spent a lot of time going over how Korean citizenship works, social gestures to use in a formal and informal setting, and also discussing what lifestyle can be in Korea. Was a very productive session atypical from the structured, by the book lessons! Always an exciting time learning more about how the language can be applied in real world scenarios.

Patient and knowledgeable tutor
After just two sessions Jinah was able to help me confidently read and write in Korean for my college level course. She is very patient and knowledgeable in what she does. I look forward to our sessions every week. Thank you Jinah!!

Perfect Flow
Jinah has a perfect balance of teaching you the language from the book and from real world examples. You will learn the fundamentals then she incorporates a real life example to reinforce the material you just went over. It works so well and has helped me remember details. She is an excellent teacher and every second is both productive and fun!

Excellent Korean Teacher
Jinah has been teaching me Korean for just about a year now on Wyzant. I have a very busy work schedule and cannot study on my own as much as I would like to, but despite this, I am still able to learn a whole lot with just taking Jinah’s online tutoring. I take a couple lessons with her every 2 weeks. When I started with her, I had zero knowledge of the Korean language. 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

Great teacher
This was my third lesson with Jinah. I am very happy with my progress. Jinah is very patient and does a great job explaining the basics of Korean language. Will continue taking lessons as my goal is to achieve fluency.
