About the store
Hi there! I'm an educator, English language specialist, and a mom of two curious little learners.
I have years of hands-on teaching experience in English conversation, early childhood education, ESL, writing instruction, and curriculum development. I’ve worked with learners from young children to adults, developing creative and effective ways to build language skills through meaningful practice.
Now, as a teacher-creator, I design resources that reflect my belief that learning should be joyful, engaging, and practical. Many of my materials are inspired by real classroom experiences, as well as by the learning journey I walk every day with my own children.
My goal is to create materials that make it easy for teachers and parents to bring language to life — through storytelling, play-based learning, interactive writing, and activities that spark curiosity.
Thank you for visiting my store! I hope my resources help make your teaching more joyful and impactful.

Experience
Hi there! I'm an educator, English language specialist, and a mom of two curious little learners.
I have years of hands-on teaching experience in English conversation, early childhood education, ESL, writing instruction, and curriculum development. I’ve worked with learners from young children to adults, developing creative and effective ways to build language skills through meaningful practice.
Now, as a teacher-creator, I design resources that reflect my belief that learning should be joyful, engaging, and practical. Many of my materials are inspired by real classroom experiences, as well as by the learning journey I walk every day with my own children.
My goal is to create materials that make it easy for teachers and parents to bring language to life — through storytelling, play-based learning, interactive writing, and activities that spark curiosity.
Thank you for visiting my store! I hope my resources help make your teaching more joyful and impactful.
Teaching style
My teaching style is all about joyful, meaningful learning.
I believe that students learn best when they feel safe, curious, and engaged. I design my resources to encourage children to express themselves, think critically, and build language naturally through stories, hands-on activities, and interactive practice.
I incorporate play-based learning, TPR (Total Physical Response), storytelling, and scaffolded writing into many of my materials. Whether it's for early learners exploring their first words, or growing writers learning to organize their thoughts, I aim to create materials that build confidence step by step.
Every resource is designed to support both teachers and students in making learning enjoyable, effective, and developmentally appropriate.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Over the years, I have been privileged to experience many rewarding moments as a teacher.
I’ve worked with students who started out shy and hesitant, but eventually found their voice and confidence in speaking and writing. Watching my students grow from simple words to full expressions — and seeing their smiles when they realize “I can do it!” — remains my greatest joy.
Earlier in my career, I was honored to receive a Grand Prize in English content development at a national startup competition in Korea. I've also served as a curriculum developer, teacher trainer, and language coach, creating materials that helped both teachers and students succeed.
But my proudest moments always come from seeing the spark in my students’ eyes as they discover the joy of learning.
My own education history
I hold a degree in Political Science and International Relations, and have pursued extensive studies in English education, writing instruction, and child-centered teaching methods.
I have also received professional training and experience in curriculum development, English content creation, and teacher coaching, and have worked with both young learners and adult students in various teaching settings including English conversation, writing, and early childhood English programs.
Currently, I continue to build on my academic and teaching foundation by studying counseling psychology to better understand and support students' learning and emotional growth.
Additional biographical information
Besides teaching, I'm also a mom of two wonderful kids who constantly inspire many of the resources I create.
Much of my work is shaped by my experience as both a teacher and a parent — balancing learning with play, encouraging curiosity, and helping children feel proud of what they can do.
Outside of teaching, I love reading, exploring new educational ideas, and sharing my journey as both an educator and a mom. Every resource I create is made with care, reflecting what I've learned both in the classroom and at home.
