About Leo
With a background spanning professional translation, cultural guiding, and strategic marketing, I offer a sophisticated and results-driven approach to learning Korean. My journey as a linguist began in Germany and continues at the Australian National University (ANU), where I am currently honing my expertise in Marketing. This unique combination of academic rigor and global experience allows me to bridge the gap between simple language acquisition and high-level communication.
I bring over two years of dedicated Korean tutoring experience, complemented by a year of professional translation and interpretation work. This professional foundation ensures that I don't just teach you phrases, but the precise nuances and cultural contexts that make your Korean sound authentic. Furthermore, my two and a half years as a professional Korean tour guide in Berlin have mastered my ability to break down complex linguistic structures into engaging, easy-to-understand concepts for learners of all backgrounds.
My methodology is as structured as it is practical. Every student starts with a comprehensive level test to create a tailored roadmap, ensuring our 120-minute sessions are perfectly balanced between rigorous assignment feedback and dynamic new material. Whether you are navigating university-level Korean courses or aiming for natural fluency in everyday conversation, my goal is to provide the professional legitimacy and personalized attention you need to speak Korean with absolute confidence.

Tutoring Approach & Methodology
Personalised Learning & Integrated Skills
Teaching methodology is rooted in practicality and natural fluency. Drawing from my professional background as a Korean-English translator and interpreter, I focus on helping students understand the subtle nuances and cultural contexts that textbooks often miss. Each student’s journey begins with a comprehensive level test, which allows me to gauge your current proficiency and tailor the curriculum specifically to your goals.
Structured 2-Hour Lessons
A typical lesson is 120 minutes long, structured to ensure both academic progress and practical application:
The First 60 Minutes (Review & Feedback): We dedicate this time to reviewing previous assignments and providing detailed feedback. This ensures that any gaps in understanding are addressed immediately.
The Second 60 Minutes (New Material & Progress): We move forward with the curriculum, focusing on new vocabulary, grammar, and expressions.
To provide a holistic learning experience, I divide my classes into four core areas: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. This balanced approach ensures you become a well-rounded communicator.
Target Students & Academic Support
My lessons are primarily designed for Beginner to Intermediate learners of all ages who want to transition from basic phrases to natural Korean conversation. If you are a student taking Korean courses at school or university, I also provide academic support to help you excel in your formal studies and assignments.
Experience & Qualifications
As a professional with extensive experience in translation and interpretation, I have a deep understanding of linguistic structures in both English and Korean. I don't just teach you "what" to say, but "why" it is said that way, ensuring your Korean sounds authentic and sophisticated.
