This is what some of my students have said about me ...

Kenny is a very good teacher… the way he teaches the material is very simplified for a noob like me… I'm sure I will learn more from him and will reach my hangul speaking goal in no time

My 16 year old son is really enjoying Korean from scratch lessons with Kenny. His confidence is growing all the time and he is doing brilliantly. He understands everything he’s learning; Kenny is great at explaining things clearly. Thank you, Kenny!

I have recently started learning Spanish with Kenny and he has been an excellent teacher so far. I am always excited for my lesson with Kenny, as he makes the lessons really interesting and enjoyable. I would strongly Recommend Kenny for Spanish :)
Maisie
I’ve had a few sessions with Kenny so far and I feel I have learnt a lot already. Kenny is a great tutor and he helps me to understand the Korean language in a way that is easy to remember. I’m looking forward to continuing to learn with Kenny and would recommend him to anyone looking to learn Korean.

Kenny is a great tutor, who understands his students and is able to effectively adapt his lessons to their needs. He also contextualises the lessons excellently, bringing to life a range of information to help improve the way learners understand the language and culture.
Diana
So far I'm having a great experience learning Korean with Kenny. I'm a total beginner so it's great that I can learn everything from scratch as if I was in school. I'll definitely recommend Kenny to anyone that's interested in learning Korean.
Mae
Kenny has been a brilliant tutor and fairly flexible so far.
He is very knowledgeable and approachable. I am looking forward to each session. I thought it would be quite a challenge to have sessions after work and somehow overwhelming; however Kenny makes it easy and his lessons are structured and complete.
I would therefore highly recommend Kenny if you wish to learn more about Korean language and culture.
Alfie
I'm really enjoying my lessons with Kenny! I had some very basic experience of learning Korean before. Kenny was able to quickly continue where I left off after an initial assessment.
He's very friendly, organized, and makes it easy to understand the concepts I'm learning about. I feel like I'm getting the most I possibly could out of the 2 hour weekly lessons.
I highly recommend studying with Kenny!
Sophia
Kenny is a great teacher. His lessons are fast paced but he slows down if i can't keep up.

I’ve been learning Korean from Kenny for more than a month now, and I have to say he’s a really great teacher who is very proficient at translating more difficult language concepts to students. I would recommend his services to other aspiring learners.

Kenny is very systematic, concise with an element of throwing in fun learning to assist in learning Korean more efficiently. He has patience and uses excellent tools that enables one to learn easily. His added easy-going personality and his own interest in teaching the language portrays the teaching passion, which invariably is contagious.

Virginia
I decided to learn Korean before my trip to Seoul, and Kenny has been very helpful and I managed to learn enough to get me around and speak to people in a month time. I now feel confident and excited to practice what I learnt in South Korea! The online classes were very convenient and easy. 감사합니다!
Elisabeth
Kenny is excellent: he was patient when technology wasn`t working; he is prompt; and my son is making really good progress with his Korean and enjoying the lessons.
Figen
I`ve had Kenny for quite a long time now and all I can say is he is literally the best language teacher I have ever had. From the way, he tailors his lessons for his tutees, to the way he explains and describes everything in a clear and simplistic manner, Kenny has helped me in my Korean so much since the beginning. With Kenny, not only do I learn about the Korean language itself, but the culture and deeper meaning behind things; I can honestly say that without Kenny, I couldn`t have come this far. If you are thinking of studying Korean, I highly recommend Kenny and guarantee that you will learn Korean in no time with him.
Anna
Kenny is an amazing teacher whom I am making so much progress with. He is very encouraging and his lessons are very fun. I see Kenny once a week and even that one hour is making my Korean so much more fluent every time. I highly recommend him as he is one of the best Korean teachers in London.
D
Kenny is great. Friendly, punctual and easy to get along with. He has a broad knowledge of languages and this comes across in the way he teaches!
Would recommend for anyone wanting to learn a new language!
