I escaped North Korea at 21 and rebuilt my life by learning to navigate new languages and cultures.


I am also the independent author of The Courage to Die, published in English. With no formal English education, I created my own learning methods—strategies that helped me overcome fear, find my voice, and eventually speak on global stages, including TEDx.

​

One of my most meaningful teaching experiences was training the well-known polyglot YouTuber Xiaomanyc to speak North Korean dialect in just 50 days—enough for him to hold a conversation in a restaurant. This showed me something powerful: with the right method, anyone can speak Korean much faster than they expect.

Today, I teach Korean through the same principles that transformed my own life: speaking-first training, strategic learning habits, and clear, practical feedback.

If you want a tutor who knows exactly how to take you from zero to speaking—book your lesson today.​
