Your teacher

Hi, I'm Brisa 👋

I write every lesson I teach. You won't get generic textbook pages from me, you'll get material built around what you actually want to say.

I've taught students who later came to Korea, and I got to meet them in person. That's still my favorite part of this job.

  • All original materials, written by me, for my own students

Frequently asked questions

What level do I need to be?

Beginner through advanced. The free level test exists to figure that out, that's the whole point of it.

Is there anything I have to show up for?

No. Nothing is scheduled, ever. You study whenever you want, from any timezone. If you add feedback, you send a recording when it suits you and the reply comes back within 48 hours.

What if I fall behind?

Nothing is lost, your progress is always saved. On Self, lessons stay open for the 12 weeks you paid for, and every fourth week is review, so you can pick it back up without starting over.

Can I switch plans or cancel?

Anytime. No contract, no cancellation fee. You manage it yourself.

Sample lesson

A real lesson, exactly as students get it

Week 1, lesson 1 of the Daily life book. Paid lessons look exactly like this, with audio.

L1 Daily life · Week 1, lesson 115 min

Your first Korean class. A new neighbour, a friend of a friend. Everyone starts with the same two sentences.

안녕하세요. 저는 소피아예요.
an-nyeong-ha-se-yo. jeo-neun so-pi-a-ye-yo.
Hello. I'm Sofia.
Why it matters

안녕하세요 works at any time of day and with anyone. 저는 ___예요 / 이에요 = "I am ___". Use 예요 after a vowel, 이에요 after a consonant.

Today's words
안녕하세요an-nyeong-ha-se-yohello
저jeoI (polite)
이름i-reumname
Quick quiz

저는 민준___. Which one?

The full lesson also has a dialogue, 7 words, 5 quiz questions and homework.
