Reads, writes, and speaks standard Korean language at a native level. Quadrilingual, fluent in Japanese, English, and Spanish. Korean-American with a South Korean background (Busan) with an extensive
JHU/UChicago graduate. Spoke Korean for 26 years (and counting)! The course will initially involve mastery of the Korean alphabet (Hangeul) and combinations of vowels and consonants. After, the course will focus on learning basic sentence structure and particles. Concomitantly, the student will familiarize with Korean grammar. At this time, depending on the student's background, modules on Hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean) will be provided. Emphasis placed later on honorifics, and levels of formality. I graduated with Departmental Honors in Chemistry, and I hold a Master's degree in Physical Sciences from UChicago. I have extensive tutoring experience - I have tutored in a variety of classes in STEM in addition to the Korean language for a private company for 4 years.
