-
I'm bored in this class. Boring describes the thing. Bored describes how you feel.
-
I went to the hospital yesterday. Korean has no a or the, so they slip out in English too. We train them as a habit, not a rule.
-
You've got this! “Fighting!” is Korean English. To cheer someone on, say “You can do it!” or “You've got this!”
Built around how Korean speakers learn English
Articles and plurals
Korean has no a or the, so they tend to vanish when you speak. We drill them until they become automatic.
Translating as you talk
Korean puts the verb last, so building English word by word makes you pause. We practice whole phrases so you can answer at conversation speed.
Sounds and rhythm
R and L, F and P, long and short vowels, and the stress-based rhythm of English. Small fixes that change how clear you sound.
Hi, I'm Kate.
I learned English as a second language too, so I know what the climb feels like. I taught in Daegu and speak conversational Korean, so I understand where Korean speakers get stuck. I explain the reason behind every correction, and I send notes after each lesson so you can review.
