Learn to Speak Korean

Study Abroad Programs
Useful Words and Phrases

The number of South Korean language schools has increased dramatically over the last couple of years.

Yonsei University, the most renowned of these, has an excellent program in its Korean Language Institute. Both KLI and Sogang University offer daily intensive, four-hour Korean -language programs. If you're interested in just a few hours a week, Ewah Women's University has an excellent program with day and night courses. Aside from the more established schools, a number of innovative smaller language schools have been established around the Shinchon area. One of these schools was founded by a dissatisfied Yonsei teacher who wanted to use newer materials to teach. These smaller schools don't offer student visas, but they are ideal for those teachers who wish to learn Korean. Private (one-on-one) sessions run about W21,460 (US$26) per hour. Small group classes meet for twenty hours each week during a ten-week period and cost about W429,200 (US$520).
