Hello, I'm Chelsea from the United States of America. In university I studied critical writing, and I worked as an English Teacher in South Korea for five years. Now I am a graduate student in South Korea. I'm passionate about writing and run a Korean music website. I also love to travel with my pet poodle and practice film photography in my free time.
Me as a Teacher
I began teaching five years ago after undergraduate school. I worked in Korean public school for two years as the native English teacher before moving on to private school. I've worked with students from elementary school to professional adults -- and levels from beginner to advanced. I primarily work as a speaking teacher, and I love watching students become comfortable with a language. As my background is in critical writing, I'm also very adept at proofreading and helping students improve their writing skills.
I also study Korean full time and have passed 4급 TOPIK, so I can be helpful with Korean questions and vocabulary translation.
My lessons & teaching style
Conversation is one of the best ways to master a language -- and working with a native teacher can help boost confidence in using a second language. I use textbooks, articles, and PDFs as lesson material. Of course, if students are more interested in basic proofreading and writing practice, I am more than happy to help!
My lessons include:
- Conversational Grammar (with PDF textbook)
- Conversation Practice/ Vocabulary Building (with articles and PDFs)
- Writing Practice (Textbook + Weekly writing)
- Free Conversation
I follow the italki cancellation policy, so students can reschedule or cancel 24 hours before the lesson time.
Have been learning English with Chelsea for almost a year and I love it! Thank you!
