Hejsan
Hej alla! My name is Yeon-Hee and I am a recent graduate from the University of Washington in Seattle with a degree in Scandinavian Area Studies, and Minors in Linguistics and Swedish. If I could have any superpower, it would be to understand and be able to speak every language in the world. I love languages and I am currently working on learning French. After that I plan to learn Italian. :)
I was co-chair of the Swedish Club at UW for about 2 years and I am a founding member of the Afro-Latin Jazz Ensemble at UW. I was also president of the Undergraduate Linguistics Club at UW during the fall of 2008. In my spare time, I like to play and to teach music. I also do academic tutoring, for English, SAT, and TOEFL. www.yhconsultingservice.com.I am also available for Swedish tutoring!! Contact me to set up a meeting.
I took two years of Swedish language courses at the UW and studied abroad in Sweden for a semester. I've also taken a course in the History of the Scandinavian Languages, and have focused on Swedish in linguistics courses like Morphology, Bilingualism, and Ways of Meaning. Many of the papers I have written concerning Sweden are found on my homepage in my portfolio.
There are quite a few valuable sources that I have come across in my research and I've listed some of them on my "Rec. Reading" page. I've also recommended some Swedish music on my "Swedish Music" page. If you're interested in the linguistics side of things, please follow along on my Linguistics Projects page! These are all just speculative works in progress (...things I think about... things that may turn into projects for myself, whether I get credit or not).

Hopefully this site is helpful to you. Please, feel free to give me some feedback and let me know if there is anything more I can do for you. Thanks for visiting!
