"There are more books that shape people than books made by people!!" Hello? This is Teacher Sera. It has been nearly 15 years since I started reading, writing, and sharing stories with children. When I first began this work, there were no reading and writing academies in the neighborhood, so my first connection was with a small group of students I met while creating NIE (Newspaper in Education) teaching materials myself using children's newspapers. Since then, the number of students has grown, and we have gradually started conducting discussion and writing classes where we choose and read books that we both wanted to read. Currently, as a reading and writing teacher, I guide over 100 students every month. I feel a sense of fulfillment in my work whenever my students go to college and visit me to tell me that all the activities we did together—reading and writing—were a great source of strength for them. Having read countless books and met many children, I saw students who struggled with reading and found it difficult to express their thoughts and feelings in writing. I wanted to gift them the most primal and old-fashioned skills: reading and writing. Since books are written by a single person, there are more books that shape people than books made by people. People who have grown through books do not waver easily. I hope that more friends will join me in 'reading, our brilliant old-fashioned hobby.' "I am old-fashioned, so I think that reading books is the most brilliant hobby humanity has ever devised." - Wisława Szymborska -

책으로 쉽게 시작하는 내신+수행 대비 문학편
I don't usually write reviews, but my child highly recommended the class, saying it was so good, so I am writing this right after it ended. My child, who is about to enter middle school, has started reading full-length short stories in modern literature. Although modern novels are written in Korean, the language can be difficult and some works are abstruse. I was looking for a class on Kookooge that could help, and Teacher Sera opened the perfect class. We have to read the book before class. It is a very enriching lesson where we examine and dissect literary works with the teacher during class—works that might otherwise just end with a simple "Oh, okay" or "It's interesting" if read alone—and even write a short review at the end. I highly recommend this to students preparing for middle school!

쉽게 시작하는 글쓰기 : 미니 논술 (사회 이슈 알기)
I was worried because my child loves reading but finds writing—even book logs—a chore, aside from diaries. Since my child absolutely detests private academies, I had a lot of concerns about teaching writing. However, they participated with great enthusiasm in a writing class they stumbled upon by chance. It seems that learning about new news and writing one piece at a time gives them a sense of accomplishment. Even though they said they still lack confidence in writing, they used the methods the teacher taught them to write argumentative essays and managed to get what they wanted from their dad. ^^ They are gradually regaining their confidence on their own and say they want to keep taking the class for a long time. Thanks to the teacher, their general knowledge is growing, and their writing skills are improving. Thank you so much. ^^

쉽게 시작하는 글쓰기 : 미니 논술 (사회 이슈 알기)
After taking a one-day class, I felt it was exactly what my child needed, so I immediately signed up for the regular course, and we have been taking the teacher's classes for six months now. When my child first started writing, they would write without any organization or understanding of what they wanted to say. Although their writing is still lacking, through the teacher's classes, my child has learned how to organize their thoughts and structure their writing with an introduction, body, and conclusion. They are now writing while giving more thought to how they should write! The teacher also teaches in a fun way tailored to children's levels, so my child really enjoys the class.
