Learn Korean for free with your Smartphone

If you want to learn Korean language for free by yourself there are a few ways. Here I would introduce one of them.

Korean Language Hangeul (한글) is considered to be one of the most efficient alphabets in the world according to several language experts for its scientific design and excellence. King Sejong created Korean alphabet in 1443 as a way to end with the high illiteracy in Korea, as the Chinese characters used at that time were too complicated.

Learn the alphabet

First step is learning the Korean alphabet, which is formed by 14 consonants and 10 vowels and it’s not hard to learn.

A good way to learn how to read Hangeul for free is watching YouTube tutorials. There are a lot of tutorials out there; I think this one a good one to follow:

Grammar and vocabulary

If you don’t feel like going a language school, you can learn Korean grammar and vocabulary with talktomeinkorean.com. This website provides free short audio lessons of 10-15 minutes. I personally think that are funny and easy to follow.

They have a smartphone app that you can download to listen to the lessons on your phone. They also have 4 Workbooks from level 1 to 4, which can be easily find in most bookstores. The cost is ₩12,000 per book.

The way I’m learning Korean is by listening to the audios and then reviewing and practising my writing with the books.
