Hello, I am Theresa. I laid the foundation for my teaching by obtaining my TESOL certification in British Columbia, and I am dedicated to the accurate delivery of both Korean and English, having also acquired a translation certificate. As an instructor with over 14 years of professional experience—currently working as a specialized online instructor for elementary and high school students as well as a corporate trainer for major domestic and international corporations—I conduct my classes using a variety of materials to help children feel less intimidated by the unfamiliar language of English. Especially for my children's generation, English is not merely about communication; it requires the power to present one's own opinions and persuade others. Therefore, I use diverse materials such as real-time English newspapers, original texts, and debates to help children develop an interest in English in a fun and stress-free way. Among these methods, I believe that using actual English newspapers is the most effective. It instills in children the confidence of reading a real newspaper, enables them to present their opinions on the articles, and helps them develop the logical reasoning to support those views. Current affairs are not just for adults; children can certainly learn them in an enjoyable way as well. If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message! Thank you! :)

초등 Speaking + Reading 실력 진단 레벨 테스트(CEFR, AR 레벨 점검)

My child lacked confidence in speaking English and struggled with it, so I was worried about what to do. That's why I decided to take the test at Kookoog and sign up. I liked that the teacher was kind and helpful whenever my child got stuck, and encouraged them to speak. Since it was their first time taking a test like this, they were very nervous and said their head hurt towards the end, but they said they think they can do better next time. The feedback was also detailed, and it was a very beneficial time. Thank you.

You must have been very nervous since it was your first test, but I am truly grateful for your courage to see it through to the end. I remember you saying, “I think I can do a little better next time.” :) I will continue to provide warm support so that your child can gain more confidence in speaking English! Thank you so much for your valuable feedback.

"카이유랑 말해요! 영어가 쉬워지는 30분"

I signed up because my child wanted to give it a try. We don't watch Caillou much, so we weren't familiar with the series, but we signed up simply because we really wanted to converse with the teacher in English. First off, not knowing Caillou wasn't a big issue. The teacher showed us an episode and used it to conduct the lesson. My child was a bit nervous, but the teacher spoke to us in a friendly manner and praised us to help us feel at ease, so we were able to follow along comfortably. The teacher guided us so that we wouldn't feel embarrassed even if we didn't know the answer or made mistakes, and by the end, my child was really excited. If the schedule works out, I plan to sign up for this teacher's lessons again.

You asked questions tailored to my child's level and helped keep them excited and talking. My child said they really enjoyed the level test with you and wanted to see you in class. I am also very satisfied with the results received after the test. It was very helpful that you accurately pointed out the areas needing improvement and even highlighted my child's strengths.
