"I know planners are good, but why can't I use them consistently? Am I just weak-willed?" No. Absolutely not. Planner expert and author Hong Hyun-soo! I will tell you firmly: "You have no problem. It is just that you haven't learned the proper method." We have met many Korean, English, and Math teachers, but we have never seen a "planner teacher." It seems that utilizing a planner well would be of great help with everything from time management to learning and motivation to study, but when you actually try to use it, it is difficult to write consistently for more than three days. Eventually, you often find yourself looking at a planner that has ended up gathering dust in a corner. "There is no need for everyone to use a planner the same way, is there? Just as there are diverse people, shouldn't there be diverse ways to use a planner?" This was the beginning of my contemplation. The purpose of my lectures is to observe children through their planners and suggest customized methods to cultivate "self-directed habits." And this is not necessarily limited to just academics. This is because anyone can achieve greatness in anything as long as they cultivate self-directed habits. That is why I aim for a child who is "good at both academics and study" rather than just "good at studying." Recently, to observe children more systematically, I obtained certifications in MBTI and Enneagram testing. To further enhance my expertise, I entered the Graduate School of Korea National University of Education, obtained a master's degree, and am currently pursuing a doctoral degree. You must learn how to use a planner from someone who truly knows how to use one. It doesn't flow smoothly just because you write on a template marked with times. Planning ability improves gradually through numerous trials and errors, self-reflection, and constant contemplation on the causes of unachieved plans and how to improve them. Therefore, habit formation was the key. I realized that it is far more important whether you wrote it or not, rather than whether you wrote it well or beautifully. As a coach working alongside the child, I will guide you with passion and sincerity.

하루 플래닝 : 발달연령 맞춤으로 시작하는 '난생처음' 초등 자기주도습관
First of all, you were a precious person who truly loves children. It wasn't about following orders from adults or parents, but rather setting realistic plans that were small yet enjoyable for the child to follow, making it truly useful. In modern terms, it was a class with the best value for money! I look forward to your next class. I hope you continue to provide classes for, by, and of the children. I hope you enjoy it with a sense of pride, feel the energy of the stars of the world, and continue to deliver excellent education. Maybe try something a bit easier for the nonsense, haha. They were quite disappointed that they couldn't guess the answer, haha.

고등학교 진학 전, 자기주도학습 습관들이기
Teacher, since the class has ended, I wasn't sure where to post this, so I am posting it here in the feedback section. (It seems I can only edit reviews because I have already written one for every class~^^) Eojin asked you to send her the planner. After work, she bragged to her dad about how much she enjoyed and how helpful the class with you was, and the whole family burst into laughter as she kept asking you quizzes~^^ Thanks to you, this vacation was a memorable and fulfilling time. Thank you!

상위권 학습플래닝 : 초등 자기주도 습관의 시작
My third grader was very concerned about their academic performance because school attendance was erratic due to COVID-19. We even made a pinky promise to stick to our self-planned schedules this vacation. Then, based on a friend's recommendation, I signed up for an elementary learning planning program. Since they said it was very effective, I enrolled them with some skepticism. However, this morning, just as they learned in yesterday's training, they wrote down the tasks from their monthly vacation schedule on a weekly basis—by day of the week—and pointed out what was in progress and what was completed. Looking at it closely, I think it would yield better results than a standard diary, even for an adult like me. The learning cards are currently the best for writing down vocabulary from English class and using them for quizzes.
