Gj was a great teacher! Expect to cover a lot of material within the time you spend with her. She provides a great study paper with basic expressions that you can take with you after.

It was so awesome to meet and connect with a local! I got to learn phrases that I most wanted to learn and so much cultural and conversational context was shared too! We got to exchange similarities across different languages too! GJ was very generous with her time and sharing 🙏🏼
Highly recommend learning with her!

I hate writing negative reviews but want to give feedback to help you make an informed decision on if you want to spend money on this.
My daughter & I were really looking forward to this class & we booked it on our 1st day as our 1st activity so set the tone for the rest of our trip & help us with our Korean.
1st issue: while we’re on the way to the class our host asks us to change our class time because the guests before us asked to push their time back. As a business owner it’s inconsiderate to ask this of a customer 30 minutes before their scheduled time. The previous customer should have been instructed to change their time if they couldn’t make it on time.
2nd issue: the photos show this is in a private classroom setting, it was held in a public area which was very loud & hard to concentrate/listen
3rd issue: while the host is extremely nice it was unorganized & didn’t seem like she has formal teaching experience so we left w/o much knowledge
Left feeling like I wasted my $?

Gy was great. An hour learning about a language is hard to curate into a thoughtful and educational exercise but Gy did it. Within an hour, you had the beginning of the basic ideas of Korean Hangol. It was fun and gave you an insight into the culture.. Recommend!

Very helpful and enjoyable language lesson! My husband, daughter and I had a blast learning basic Korean expressions and cultural norms. Loved meeting at City Hall as well. The host was kind and accommodating. She gave wonderful recommendations and tailored the experience to our interests. I would highly recommend doing this to everyone visiting Seoul or learning Korean for the first time.
