| Yeah, after 2 seconds watching, I realised why you put the 'learn' in quotation marks |

On one of them she interviews some American guy on the phone who has called her to tell her what a good teacher she is....she asks him why he watches her videos and you can tell he's trying to come up with a reason which isn't...."To look at your boobs."
Personally though whenever I need to know what the weather was like in Jeju the day before....it does come in pretty handy.

| I was under the impression that Jessica grew up in the US, and was a native English speaker. But around the 15 minute mark, she makes some English errors that indicate that English might not be her first language. Maybe her English isn't as native-like as I thought it would be. |

No idea...to be honest I had never heard of her up till a day or two ago....it was one of my "recommended" channels due to my "TTMIK" channel subscription. I don't think she's a native English speaker though...unless she's just fallen into some bad habits. |

Her bio says she was born, and grew up in California. Maybe she went to Korea in her early teens. Don't know. |

Wait, so is this this woman's full time job?
She appears to upload videos every day, but the view counts are so low...is it just a hobby? |

Oh, haha, that's who she is? Guess she's pretty liquid then.
Though, in that case, I'm surprised the views aren't higher. |

| It looks like it originally airs live on afreeca. You earn income from users who 'pay' while the stream is happening, rather than ads like youtube. |
