Hello! This is Teacher Lucy Kim Eun-young from S.E.L. English, pursuing strategic English learning. What is the most effective method in the long journey of language learning? While there may be no absolute method, there certainly exists a widely accepted and effective approach with minimal error. As I teach children in schools and classrooms, as well as my own children, I have grown alongside them while contemplating what the most effective and efficient method is. That method is Reading; other skills can only be acquired more effectively when learned based on Reading. In other words, long-term, systematic learning through books is necessary, starting from a young age and progressing in the order of English picture books, readers, chapter books, and novels. In my classes, I conduct level-specific reading lessons using various materials to help students master these effective reading strategies. Additionally, to prepare for middle school, I plan to run strategic classes focused on in-depth grammar, reading comprehension, and sentence structure. I am delighted to meet students from various regions through Kookoo, and I hope my classes will be helpful in their journey of learning English.

[SEL영어][초4~6중급이상]Lucy's 전략Grammar Core- 중등구문의 기본개념
I initially started taking the class to prepare for descriptive questions and review grammar, but the process of my child naturally writing and constructing sentences, from basic to advanced ones, was truly beneficial! The lecture notes and practice problems, personally organized by the teacher, were so well-organized that they stood out compared to other textbooks, making it excellent for my child to learn and apply grammar concepts. It was a class filled with sincerity! Although it was late on Thursdays and sometimes felt tiring, the teacher scheduled the class at the very end of the day to allow for more time to dedicate to problem-solving and games, ensuring my child could fully master the content. It was a meaningful and precious time where my child learned even difficult clause studies and conditional sentence problems, experiencing the joy of discovering the rules as they progressed. I highly recommend this class if you want to learn the principles and core concepts of grammar!

[SEL영어][초4~6중급이상]Lucy's 전략Grammar Core- 중등구문의 기본개념
My child is in the 4th grade and is taking this class to serve as a bridge from elementary to middle school English grammar and to expand their grammar knowledge. As expected, my child is satisfied and is listening attentively to the lessons. Even if there are parts that are somewhat unfamiliar to my child, I believe it is important to expose them to the material first and repeat it until they internalize it. Review is crucial. I view this as a practice process for future writing and reading long texts in one sitting; even if my child's understanding is lacking, I think it would be beneficial to follow the teacher's lessons while consistently exposing them to the material and reading books. I am also taking the teacher's other reading class, and the supplementary materials and assignment handouts are well-made. The level of instruction is systematic enough to almost surpass private tutoring. I think we just need to trust the teacher and follow their lead.

[부모교육][SEL영어] 우리아이 중고등영어 1등급을 위한 영어로드맵과 전략
Your passionate lectures were very helpful. As a 4th grader, I decided to take this class not so much to get a top grade in high school right away, but to get help with the direction of my future English studies. I feel like I have been able to draw a big picture. Although the standards and direction I had in mind didn't deviate significantly, it was helpful to realize their importance once again. After listening to the lectures, I felt overwhelmed and worried because there were so many things I needed to do to excel in English and do well on exams. However, I was comforted by your advice that it is not too late, and I plan to build a solid foundation starting with your basic lectures. Although my child's English level is lower than their peers, their Korean literacy is keeping up well, so I want to trust my child and move forward with their studies. Hoping that we have great chemistry and their English skills will improve rapidly, I am preparing to start the November classes.
