During this course the instructor went through the sentences thoroughly and explained what each word meant and why each particle was placed and when to use them. This was very helpful to me and I overall enjoyed taking this course.

Great intro of the Korean language if you have little to no knowledge of it. Print out the lecture notes prior to the lesson so you can follow along and make your own notes along the way. Thank you for making this course available!

A great course! Love how vocabulary are repeated from time to time to help refresh your memory. The introduction and description of the history of the characters was an insightful section. Absolutely enjoyed working on this course.

This course was really helpful for me. As i was a toddler in hangul, i didn't know anything about korean alphabets or how they're are written but now i can speak, read and write hangul. Thanks to the teacher who taught this course.

Loved it! It was pretty helpful. I would be up to taking Korean to the next level. *side-note* I would love it if you included romanization translation to the words pronounced just so its easier to distinguish the words pronounced

Very well presented and easy to understand. I'm not a complete beginner but this was a very good course and filled in some areas I didn't fully understand. Nice to have the study notes and the graded quizzes were very useful too.

Me encantaron las clases, aunque me hubiera gustado que se explique la manera de conjugar los verbos en cada tiempo: presente, pasado y futuro.

Agradezco que este material sea gratuito para quienes queremos aprender coreano.

감사합니다 ♡

Would be great if there was more new practice instead of just lecture notes but this was great! I've learned the basics of Korean several times but this was very in-depth especially with the hangeul lessons and easy to understand.

This was a great course. It broke down simple phrases into easy to learn sections. I would like to take it over again, just to make sure I didn't miss anything. The instructor took her time, going over each section multiple times.
