Hwa Cheon Lee serves as a Lecturer in the Korean Department at Boğaziçi University, Türkiye, teaching Korean language courses continuously since 2010 while pursuing doctoral studies. Their work bridges academic instruction with practical cultural transmission to Turkish learners.
Educational background includes:
- Ph.D. (expected 2025) in Korean Language and Literature, Erciyes University, Türkiye
- M.A. in Education Engineering, Sookmyung Woman’s University, South Korea (2014)
- B.A. in Economics, Boğaziçi University, Türkiye (1999)
Lee's research centers on Korean culture and literature, manifested through pedagogical innovations that make Korean accessible to Turkish speakers. The integration of cultural context within language instruction forms the cornerstone of their approach, enabling students to grasp both linguistic structures and societal nuances.
Publications reveal a consistent focus on practical language acquisition tools, with multiple editions of Korece Öğreniyorum 1&2 evolving to meet learner needs, alongside the proverb compilation Kore Atasözleri which bridges linguistic study with cultural wisdom. These works collectively emphasize structured progression from basic grammar to cultural literacy.
As an educator, Lee has facilitated significant student outcomes through the Global Korea Scholarship Program (GKS), with nearly annual selections of students for advanced study in South Korea since 2012. This success stems from tailored instructional methods that prepare learners for immersion experiences and academic pursuits.
