Beginner Korean from Zero with Real Phrases and Slang
From 44 C$ /h
You've watched enough K-dramas to know 사랑해. This course takes you from there to real conversations. We start from zero, including the alphabet. No textbook dialogues. Just the Korean people actually use day to day.
What you'll learn :
- Read Hangul (it takes about two lessons)
- Casual vs polite Korean, and when to use each
- Introduce yourself, order at a cafe, react to things, and text a Korean friend
- Current slang, and which words are already going out of style
There's no fixed number of lessons. In the first class, I'll check your level and goals, and build the plan around you. Once the basics are down, we keep going with more conversation, more real situations, and more slang.
About me: I'm a native Korean speaker who has lived in Japan for 11 years and went to an international school. I am also experienced in teaching Korean, so I know how to explain things clearly to beginners.

Extra information
Before our first lesson, send me a quick message if you want the class to be conducted in English or Korean. Also tell me briefly why you want to learn Korean (K-pop, travel, friends, work, etc.) so I can plan around it. A notebook and KakaoTalk are helpful but not required.

About Me
Tell me what level of Korean you want, and I'll get you there. Ordering food in Seoul, texting Korean friends, following a variety show without subtitles. We set the goal in the first lesson, and every class after that moves you toward it. No wasted time, no filler.

Experience / Qualifications
I was born in central Seoul and moved to Tokyo when I was little, where I've lived for about 11 years. During that time, I went back to Seoul once or twice a year to study, which kept my Korean up to date with how people there actually speak.
