Korean Classrooms,
Reimagined with AI
I'm Jihun Kong (공지훈), a Korean language teacher at Jeollanam Future International High School, researching Korean instruction in multilingual classrooms. I build EdTech tools, lead teacher training, and ship real products like jnmt.kr — a translation-driven platform bridging language barriers in Korean classrooms.
Tech Lead at Seeds of Empowerment — the global education NGO founded by Stanford GSE's Prof. Paul Kim. Contributed to 1001stories (storytelling learning) and SMILE (Stanford Mobile Inquiry-based Learning Environment).
