    Dialog-Driven Korean Tutoring: Experience Language & Culture Together

    Why Learn with Me? Your Motivation, My Inspiration: Everyone has a unique reason for diving into the Korean language. Are you captivated by the melodies of Korean songs or the drama in TV shows? Perhaps you're charting a career path that intersects with Korea? Or maybe you're just curious about starting a new linguistic journey? No matter your motivation, I'm genuinely interested in hearing your story and understanding your aspirations. Your goals become my teaching compass, guiding each lesson to cater to your ambitions. Overcoming Challenges Together: Korean is undeniably beautiful, but it presents its unique set of challenges. Its distinct grammatical structure and pronunciation nuances might feel intimidating. But with my guidance, you'll navigate these intricacies with confidence, keeping your motivation intact as we journey towards your goals. Proven Track Record: Many of my students, who embarked on this journey as novices, now engage in effortless conversations with me. Their success stories are a testament to both their commitment and the efficacy of my teaching methodologies. Real-Life Dialogues: I take pride in my dialog-driven teaching approach, designing lessons especially for those with aspirations linked to Korea, be it travel, work, or permanent residency. With me, you won't just learn Korean - you'll experience it in its authentic essence. Tailored to Your Needs: Whether you're gingerly stepping into the world of Korean or sharpening your advanced linguistic skills, I mold my lessons to match your proficiency level, ensuring you're always challenged just right. Immerse in Korean Culture: My background as a seasoned movie and documentary translator enriches our lessons with a wealth of cultural insights. Dive deeper than just the language; understand the heart and soul of Korea through its culture, traditions, and narratives.

    I have been studying with Panjin for a year now. It has been wonderful. Panjin is very good with pronunciation, which was very important to me. She is patient, kind and fun to be in class with. She prepares well and creates fun materials for her students. Korean is not easy, but I so love it that it makes the challenge in combination with Panjin's fun lessons totally worthwhile. 감사합니다, 힐디 If you want to know what that means sign up for a class with Panjin you won't regret it.

    Panjin is the best tutor! She has taught me so much already and I can’t wait to keep learning from her. Her style of teaching is very kind and encouraging and she is great at making you feel empowered to learn Korean. She gives practical tips for speaking/behaving as well as invaluable cultural context!

    Taking lessons with Panjin is the best thing I've done to improve my Korean speaking confidence. I'm Korean, but was raised in the US, so my constant frustration and embarrassment has been not being able to speak my language. I've taken lessons with Panjin for about 2 months, and I've seen my knowledge and confidence has grown so much since then! She caters the lessons to my level and interest, and provides a really important native cultural perspective. She is very supportive, and I feel comfortable trying my best and making mistakes in front of her. I feel very lucky to have met her as a teacher - 5 stars!
