I'm Chloe — a working broadcast announcer based in Seoul, teaching Korean to adults who want more than tourist phrases. Conversation-first lessons with the pronunciation, intonation, and rhythm of standard broadcast Korean (표준어).
For the last three years I've worked as a broadcast announcer on Korean programming — live programs, scripted segments, interviews, voiceover. Every word has to land cleanly: the right pitch, the right pause, the right consonant. That training is the lens through which I teach.
My students don't just learn Korean. They learn to be understood in Korean — clearly, confidently, the first time.
I work with adults who have a real reason to speak well: relocating to Seoul, working with Korean colleagues, marrying into a Korean family, preparing for TOPIK, or simply tired of apps that never lead to a real conversation. Lessons are 1-on-1, conversation-first, and built around your goals rather than a fixed curriculum.
All lessons are 1-on-1, in English + Korean as needed, on Teams, Google Meet, or Cal Video. You choose at booking.
A 30-minute lesson to assess your level, talk about your goals, and see if we're a good fit. No script, no pressure — just a real conversation.
One 50-minute lesson per week, billed monthly. Cancel anytime. Includes session recording, custom vocabulary list, and a shared OneDrive workspace.
A single 50-minute lesson on whatever you want to focus on — pronunciation, business Korean, TOPIK prep, or a topic you bring. No commitment.
Every lesson follows a rhythm I learned in the studio — clarity first, then nuance, then performance.
Each lesson opens with a short audio clip — a broadcast segment, a film scene, a podcast. You hear native Korean at full speed before you speak a word.
You repeat after me — exact pitch, exact pause, exact consonant. This is the same drill broadcast trainees do on day one.
We move into free conversation around the same topic. I correct in real time — pronunciation, grammar, naturalness — without breaking your flow.
You get a recording, a custom vocabulary list, and three sentences to practice before our next lesson. That's it. No homework piles.
After three months with Chloe, my Korean colleagues stopped switching to English when I joined the meeting. That was the moment I knew it was working.
I've taken Korean lessons for years. Chloe is the first teacher who corrected my pronunciation without making me feel stupid — and the first whose corrections actually stuck.
I booked the intro lesson expecting another textbook teacher. Instead I got 30 minutes of real conversation and a clear plan. I signed up the same evening.
As a voice actor, what I needed was someone who could hear the millimeter difference between ㅓ and ㅗ. Chloe was that person. Worth every dollar.
The intro lesson is free, thirty minutes, and the no-strings way to start. Pick a time that works for you.
