Introduction

Welcome to Sungeun Kim's website!

My research focuses on the intersection of natural language processing (NLP), artificial intelligence, and English education. I am particularly interested in creative writing evaluation, AI-assisted language learning, and personalized strategies for EFL learners, with an emphasis on affective factors such as foreign language anxiety and emotional intelligence.
