    1:1 한국어 과외 경력이 있는 튜터 안녕하세요. 저는 현재 대만에서 워킹홀리데이를 마치고 한국에 돌아온 JISU입니다. 대만에서 사는 8개월 동안 현지에서 한국어를 배우고 싶어하는 15명 정도의 대만분들에게 한국어를 가르쳐 드린 경험이 있습니다. 그때 이후로 저의 주된 관심사는 지루하지 않고 재미있는 한국어 수업하기 인데요. 이곳에서도 여러분들과 함께 수업 하면서 한국어 공부뿐만 아니라 한국 문화도 함께 공유하고 여러가지 게임도 같이 하면서 즐거운 한국어 수업을 하고 싶습니다.
    저는 피아노 전공을 하면서 교원자격증을 취득 했는데요.

    Why choose Jisu E.
    "Jisu is a very kind and patient tutor. I'm practicing reading and writing with her, and she is really helpful! She always gives me clear explanations about words and sentences whenever I need. I highly recommend Jisu :) Jisu是一位非常温柔的老师。我想提高自己的阅读、口语和写作,Jisu老师帮了我很多。而且她的中文说的很好,解释和沟通都没有问题。非常推荐!"

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🇰🇷 How to learn Korean?

There are many different ways to learn a new language, and it really depends on what works best for you. Key to learn a language is total immersion. With an online Korean tutor you can learn Korean with a native speaker even when you're not in Korea. There are many more ways you can have a bit of Korea in your own home. Test your comprehension skills when you watch great films like "Oldeuboi" or "Parasite." Maybe Korean dramas are more your thing (Don't worry you're not alone.) You have a visual buffet awaiting you. And of course, let's not forget the international sensation K-pop has become. Look up BTS, Blackpink, and other popular Korean songs to practice your pronunciation as you enjoy some tunes. For something more low-key, curl up somewhere comfortable and dive into the literary world of Sun-mi Hwang, Seo Jeong-ju, or other Korean authors. Make sure to ask your Preply Korean teacher for recommendations.
 

🥇 Is Korean hard to learn?

The Foreign Service Institute (FSI) ranked Korean as one the hardest languages to learn. Korean is a unique language, it belongs to the Koreanic language family and has around nine dialects. Learning a language with a new sentence structure and writing system can be daunting, like with Korean. Learning Korean can be hard at first, but after you've had some lessons with a private Korean tutor you will notice you're making progress already.
 

📅 How long does it take to learn Korean?

On average, it takes around 88 weeks or 2,200 hours to learn Korean. As with any language you want to learn, the more time you're willing to invest the faster you will learn. To make progress we recommend taking at least two Korean lessons a week.
 

🧑🏻‍🤝‍🧑🏿How many people speak Korean?

There are 82 million Korean speakers across the world, with the majority being native speakers (77 million). It is the official language in North and South Korea, regional in one country, and spoken in seven others.
 

🎓 What are the most popular Korean tests?

The Korean Language Proficiency Test (KLPT), particularly for non-native speakers, suits those looking to work in Korea. Getting certified can help you advance your career or at the least confirm your proficiency. On the other hand, the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) is for students trying to enroll in Korean universities or graduate schools. Job seekers can also take this test to work at Korean companies and public institutions. Lastly, passing the TOPIK is necessary to obtain an F-5 visa if you're not married to a Korean citizen.
