Hi my name is JeeHwan but I go by Jim. I was born in Seoul, Korea but moved to NYC with my family when I was 14. I’m detail oriented and a fast learner. I have a wide set of skills and experiences, but if I have to pick one, it would be solving problems creatively. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in architecture from WashU and a master’s degree in industrial design from Parsons. I have experience teaching kids (elementary to high school) math (algebra and geometry), creative (logical reasoning and critical thinking), and some arts and crafts. I have also ...

Professional Korean tutors from all over the USA
Korean continues to be one of the world's main languages, and more precisely, it is in the second dozen languages. It is hard to find Korean-speaking Westerners, but their skills are in demand.
Even if you don't want to work in Korea or work for a company that works with Korea, having this skill in your resume will always give you an advantage because it shows that you can stick to a long-term goal and have the determination to do something that is also quite difficult.
Why hiring a private tutor is the best way to improve your Korean?
There are generally two ways to learn any language:
- self-study (books, video lessons);
- studying with a mentor (group courses, tutors, schools/universities).
You can discuss independent study if you are well speaking one of the oriental languages. And in general, it will take you a lot of time and effort anyway. As for schools and courses, the main obstacle to productive learning is a lot of students with different abilities and levels of training.
Most of all, students lack a personal approach. And this can only be provided by a tutor during individual classes. A teacher develops the curriculum specifically for your needs and requests. Also, with the help of private classes there is a chance to eliminate your typical mistakes much faster, as a tutor will constantly explain everything to you in an accessible form.
How much do private Korean classes cost?
There are not many Korean language tutors even in large cities in the United States. In this regard, private classes are expensive. Based on the latest statistics, the approximate average cost of a lesson is $50 per hour. And the upper limit of the cost is about $160-200 per hour.
The price depends on the experience and qualifications of a teacher. And it also depends on complexity of preparation and lesson duration. In large cities, prices are usually higher than in small ones. Also, more expensive are classes that involve a tutor's visit to your home.
Consider the price table and compare the cost of a private Korean lesson in different cities of the country.

Is it easy to find a private teacher? Yes, it is not difficult today. Many people use tutoring sites and social networks for this purpose. To avoid being mistaken in a teacher and to choose a worthy candidate, demand a trial lesson. This is enough to make sure a teacher is professional and to feel if his/her methods are right for you.
Tutoring platforms can provide a lot of useful information about tutor qualifications. We just need to study it carefully. Particular attention during the selection of a private teacher should be paid to:
- professional background;
- higher education;
- professional achievements;
- teaching methods;
- client feedback.
