Who are we?

Steve Lemlek,
Teacher

Hi guys!  I’m Steve.  I’m an English Teacher here in South Korea.   My journey here was a little bit different than most.  I went form being a geek blogger, to web designer, to academy owner in a pretty a zig-zagging career path.  I’m really passionate about teaching English in a fun, engaging way.   That’s why I created these templates and all of these resources on here.  

When I’m not teaching, I try to spend most of my time with my daughter, Leah, and my wife, Maggie.  If you ever need advice about teaching, or want some tips on how to have a good time in Korea, feel free to reach out to me!

– Steve Lemlek

Hal Wiley,
Teacher

I’m Hal.  I’ve been a teacher in South Korea for nearly 10 years.  For a lot of that time I taught in the public school system.  That experience has shaped how I teach.  

I’m happily married and live in Korea with my wife and daughter.  Just like Steve said above, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or feedback.

What do teachers say about us?

Rowan Jethro Hudson

“I’ve found Hal and Steve’s adult lessons better than anything else for adult conversation classes – a nice mix of reading, vocabulary, and questions on interesting topics that invite discussion. They work well both 1 on 1 and with small groups”

Amye Hwang

“Hal and Steve’s materials are amazing and there is so much you can do with them! I use them for online teaching, but have so many things I would use them for in a real classroom! They make such quality materials that my young kids love! Thanks, guys♡”

Jessica Link

“Hal and Steve English has provided me with tons of lesson ideas and conversation topics just when I feel like my own ideas have all run out. I’m terrible at starting fun conversations, especially ones that would interest someone half my age, so this is a great source of a variety of activities that my (often unmotivated) students have actually really enjoyed. Thank you!!”
