I have been taking classes for three years now with Seongyeon Cho and started from zero. I'm always amazed by how much effort she puts into her classes! You will not only learn what is in the book, but through her teaching methods, you will gain a way deeper knowledge and understanding of the Korean language. This will also help in retaining your level of Korean language for a long time. Besides from answering every language based question, she has always answered any other cultural, historical or pop culture related questions I've had. So, by taking her classes I have not only learned Korean language skills, but also so much about the country and culture itself! Seongyeon Cho has always been flexible with when, what and how I wanted to learn, which has made it so easy for me to continue classes for years. Next year I will even be taking a TOPIK test, something I never even considered before. But because of Seongyeon's confidence I feel assured to go for it and know she will help me prepare for the test well. In conclusion, I would recommend anyone to take her classes, no matter why you want to start learning Korean or what your current level is!
