    My friends and I had a wonderful time learning Korean calligraphy! Helen is a fantastic teacher and very patient. She taught us consonants, vowels and how to write them. It was truly a fun experience as we got to create the phrase we individually chose for our scrolls and kept it! Not only was it a great experience, but we now have a souvenir that we will cherish from our trip. Thank you, Helen!

    Excellent! What I really like about this class is you get to make something of real cultural significance under the guidance of an expert and keep it. We made a scroll with our chosen phrases written in Hangul. I think this is good for anyone who likes learn-by-doing experiences.

    Helen was exceptional in teaching my daughters and myself. She was patient, clear, and passionate about the subject topics. First, she went through on the slides the history of the Korean characters, showed some consonants, vowels and how they sounded. Also, discussed the proverb choices which we will write (calligraphy) later. Then we practice with writing our names with the brush, and then we get to choose proverbs of our own choice and we practice writing them in Korean characters (either Panbon style or modern style). Once we are ready, Helen will get us the actual scroll paper and we each wrote our own proverbs with the brush. It was a lovely experience. Now, we understand a little bit more of the Korean language thanks to this course. Thank you so much, Helen. We really enjoyed this special, unique experience and lesson. Oh, and the snacks and the tea were a nice touch, too!

    Calligrapher Kim was knowledgeable, warm, and very patient. Her skill in calligraphy was excellent and she helped us understand what we were doing. She showed me how to change the spacing and the size of the words depending on the meaning.
