Hello, Kookoo friends and parents! This is Principal TOP KIM. 1. As an admissions consultant, I specialize in teaching entrance exams for elementary and middle school students to specialized high schools such as Cheongshim International Middle School, Hwasan Middle School, Sahmyook Middle School, Yeongseon Middle School, and Yongjeong Middle School. 2. Additionally, I prepare middle school students for entrance exams to nationwide private high schools, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies Affiliated High School, Hana High School, Sangsan High School, Minjok High School, specialized high schools, international high schools, and foreign language high schools. Furthermore, if you become a high school student in the future, you can prepare with me for admission to SKY universities and universities in Seoul. 3. Moving forward, I will do my utmost to help Kookoo friends gain admission to their desired middle schools by teaching them the truly essential self-directed learning methods, study planning, personal statement writing, and practical interview preparation! 4. I will greet you parents through seminars and information sessions at parent education events! Sincerely, Principal TOP KIM

2027학년도 화산중 입시 전략 세미나
Teacher Top Kim, thank you so much for today's lecture. Thanks to your clear and accurate explanations, I was able to listen to the lecture with great concentration. My child listened along with me and said they understood it well. You explained the material in a way that allowed us to clearly distinguish between important and less important parts, and I was able to understand how to prepare from both the perspective of a parent and a student. It was also impressive that you explained the examiners' intentions regarding the approach to past exam questions, rather than just providing simple solutions or explanations. It was a truly meaningful and helpful time. Thank you.

2027학년도 청심국제중 입시 전략 세미나
My child hadn't prepared for Cheongsim Middle School in advance and knew absolutely nothing, but thanks to your accurate and thorough analysis and explanations, we gained confidence in our preparation. After listening to the lectures, I developed trust in you. That connection led to you helping with my child's lessons as well, and I was deeply moved to see the children focusing and enjoying the class thanks to your warm charisma. You are a teacher I would definitely recommend to any friend who is planning to prepare for the exam.

I learned so much through your lecture, Principal, even though I had no information about international middle schools and was not properly prepared. Thank you so much for extracting only the essential information so that I could attend the school information session. I would like to receive personal guidance from you in the future.
