Chris:
크리스 선생님은 한국에서 4년 이상 토픽 시험 준비, 비즈니스 한국어, 중급 및 고급 회화 수업을 전문으로 가르쳐 왔습니다. 그는 또한 JAEM의 총괄 코치로서, 수업 시스템을 설계하고 학습 철학을 정립하며 모든 수강생의 실력 향상을 책임지고 있습니다. JAEM 수업이 왜 그렇게 체계적이고 효과적인지 궁금하셨다면, 아마도 그 이유일 것입니다.
Suzan:
수잔 선생님은 외국인 학습자를 위한 한국어 교육을 전공하고 대학 어학원에서 4년간, 그리고 세종학원에서 2년간 강사로 재직했습니다. 복잡한 문법도 너무나 명확하게 설명해 주셔서 학생들이 "아! 이제 알겠어요!"라고 감탄하게 만드는 그런 선생님입니다. 따뜻하면서도 예리하고 풍부한 경험을 가진 수잔 선생님은 학습자들이 프로그램에 계속 참여하는 이유 중 하나입니다.
How the Challenge Works
Step 1. Consultation and Teacher Matching
Before the challenge starts, you share your Korean level, goals, and study needs.
Then we help place you in the right class and assign your teacher.
Step 2. Monthly Learning Flow
Each month, the challenge runs for 3 active study weeks.
- Week 1: Learn grammar patterns, dialogue, writing tasks, and useful expressions
- Week 2: Continue with grammar, dialogue, writing, and practical expressions
- Week 3: Read ads and news, watch a drama clip, and join discussion-based practice
This monthly structure helps learners study Korean through both guided input and active use.
Step 3. Two-Month Ticket Structure
One 1-ticket program runs for 2 months.
During those 2 months, learners follow two monthly topics and complete the challenge cycle with missions, class, and speaking practice.
Step 4. Weekly Study Routine
Each week, learners follow a clear study flow:
- Receive the weekly PDF
- Complete the missions
- Receive feedback
- Join the group class
- Practice speaking in the 1:1 class
This structure helps learners keep studying step by step without getting lost.

Weekly PDF and Missions
Each week, you receive a PDF with the main expressions, grammar, dialogue, writing tasks, and practice activities. You follow the mission flow step by step and use the materials as your study guide.
Mission Feedback
You do not just complete the missions alone. You also receive feedback to help you understand mistakes, improve your answers, and keep moving forward.
Personal Coach Support
Your personal coach helps you stay on track during the challenge. This support gives you more accountability, clearer direction, and a better study routine.
그룹/단체 수업
