Meet Shabnam
I’m Shabnam Doroudian, a Korean language teacher. I started learning Korean at 14, and today I share that journey with my own students.

Annyeong, I’m Shabnam.
Let’s make Korean part of your world, with practice, conversation, and room to make mistakes. A class that starts with your goals and grows with small, happy steps.
My journey with Korean
Starting at 14
I studied Korean at Gat Language Institute for two years, then continued with two years of self-study.
Continuing at Sejong Institute
After studying independently, I joined the embassy’s Sejong Institute at Level 5 and completed the programme in the second half of 2025.
From learning to teaching
I’ve been teaching Korean seriously for about a year. Both classroom learning and self-study have been part of my journey.
What do we study in class?
My lessons are based on Sejong and Ewha textbooks. These are the main resources for our lessons and classroom exercises.
