Thank you so much for providing me with this wonderful opportunity to introduce myself on Cafetalk. I am an experienced English teacher from Great Britain, holding a PhD in English language and literature. With over 20 years of teaching experience in seven different countries around the world, I have had the privilege to work in various educational settings. Additionally, I have dedicated nearly a decade of my career to serving in international humanitarian and non-profit organizations. While I possess expertise in public speaking and have worked within public relations (PR) agencies, teaching remains my foremost passion and primary focus.

While living in Geneva and abroad, I had the opportunity to teach French face-to-face classes. However, with extensive travel becoming a regular part of my life, I wanted to continue to share my passion for the French language through teaching. That's when I discovered Cafetalk, which provides incredible flexibility and ease-of-use for online teachers like me.

Nice to meet you! My name is Seola, and I am a tutor from Japan who teaches Korean. Drawing from my own experience learning Korean on my own while living in Japan, I try to make my lessons fun and enjoyable for everyone, while working closely with each and every student. I am still new to teaching, but as a fellow Korean language learner, I would be delighted to be like a friend that students can rely on when they are in need of help!

Hello, everyone! I'm Shonii, a Korean tutor, and I'm delighted to introduce myself through this interview. My passion for diverse countries and cultures drives my interest in learning foreign languages and exploring various parts of the world.

I was born and raised in Incheon, and I am still living in Incheon. Incheon is a port city with a population of 3 million. It is known for its international airport, but besides the airport, there is also a "Chinatown" where you can enjoy delicious Korean-style Chinese food, as well as a "Forest Outings," which is a large cafe with a botanical garden theme, so if you are bored of just traveling to Seoul, it is a good place to stop by for a visit:)

Hello! I am Kaho, and I work as a flute instructor. I started playing the flute when I was 12 years old because I admired my aunt who was a flutist. I have also been learning piano since I was 4 years old and have spent most of my life surrounded by music. grew up in an area rich in nature, surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are rows of cherry and plum trees in my neighborhood, so I look forward to spring every year. Getting to see baby ducklings is also one of my biggest delights every year.

Nice to meet you! My name is Mayuko, and this is my third year teaching on Cafetalk. I have also been teaching at an English conversation school for 15 years.

Hello! I am Eico, a Chinese pronunciation teacher from Japan! I was born and raised in Japan, and have a degree in science. In graduate school, I studied about Japanese apricots and peaches. After entering the workforce, I continued to used English, but I decided that I needed to learn Chinese as well. Once I started learning Chinese, I was completely fascinated by the beauty of its pronunciation, which changed my perspective and led me to offer lessons as a pronunciation tutor.
