Hi, I'm Janice. I'm a native English speaker born and raised in the US, and a graduate of New York University (NYU) where I majored in English Literature and Creative Writing on an academic scholarship.
I’ve spent the last several years working deeply with English text, both as an educator and a content creator here in Seoul. I have unique experience on the other side of test prep—working professionally to write and edit official US Common Core literature modules and digital SAT/ACT practice questions. Because I’ve actually designed these types of test materials (and scored a 1560 on my own SAT), I know exactly how to break down the logic of reading and writing sections for students without making it feel like mindless memorization.
My lessons are conducted 100% in English to give students a full immersion experience. I focus heavily on critical reading, essay structure, and helping students find their own voice in writing.
The easiest way is to move English out of the traditional hagwon mindset and connect it to your personal interests. Seoul is full of international media, literature, and global communities. By engaging with topics you actually care about and setting small, achievable goals, practicing English becomes a natural daily habit rather than a stressful academic chore.
It depends on your starting point but a timeline for dedicated learners in Seoul may look like this:
3 to 6 Months: For functional fluency, allowing you to comfortably handle everyday conversations and routine reading.
1 to 2 Years: For advanced academic or professional fluency, which is what is needed to write high-level essays and comfortably navigate an immersive international school curriculum.
