Korean-speaking Go teachers with professional or high amateur ranks
If you want to discuss Baduk with a Korean-speaking teacher, compare the profiles below for their teaching approach and experience with students at your level. Ask what a lesson on your chosen topic would involve.
This page selects teachers by their listed spoken languages and ranks: professional ranks from 1p to 9p, or amateur ranks from 7d to 9d. These profile fields do not establish nationality or a particular training background. Compare individual teaching experience and check current lesson options on each profile.
Communicating during a lesson
A shared spoken language can make conversation easier. If you prefer another supported language, translated captions can help you follow explanations and ask questions. Captions can be delayed, mistaken or unavailable. Agree how to clarify an uncertain phrase or continue if captions fail; our translation guide explains the capabilities and limits.
What to discuss before booking
Bring a recent game or a question about a decision you found difficult. For example, ask the teacher to show alternatives on the shared board and explain how to compare them. Discuss your current level, goals and preferred feedback, then check the actual lesson format, duration, price and available times on the profile.

Common questions
Do I need to speak Korean?
You may choose to use translated captions if you do not share the teacher’s spoken language. Captions can be delayed, mistaken or unavailable, so discuss your communication needs and how to clarify misunderstandings before booking.
Are these teachers certified professionals?
The selection includes profiles with listed professional ranks from 1p to 9p and high amateur ranks from 7d to 9d. A listed rank does not by itself establish independent credential verification. Read the teacher’s background and ask about any qualification that matters to your decision.
Are these teachers from Korea?
This page selects by listed Korean language and rank, not nationality or training background. Read individual profiles and ask the teacher about experience relevant to your goals.
How is this different from the Korean lessons page?
This page selects teachers by listed Korean language and rank. The lessons with Korean captions page includes teachers across spoken languages, with guidance on using captions. Neither page guarantees a suitable teacher or time is available; compare current profiles and lesson options.
