Korean Facts
Most of Korea's dialects have a close connection with the regions of Korea, since boundaries are often determined by mountains and seas
Similar to Japanese and Vietnamese in that it was heavily influenced by the Chinese language, around 60% of Korean words are derived from Chinese
The classification of the modern Korean language is not certain - it has elements of an Altaic language, Japanese, Chinese, and some languages of the Eastern Turkic group

Book now / EnquiryThese Korean lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Korean to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners course, students can expect to finish the course with decent telephone and e-mail Korean, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.
Book now / EnquiryKorean courses of this type are broader and are aimed towards students with a variety of requirements. While all beginner level students will cover survival Korean - needed for short visits to countries where English isn't widely spoken, or if you wish to 'go local'; those studying Korean usually go in different directions at this point, depending on what they need. Those who have benefitted from these Korean classes have been those investing in or buying property overseas, those married to overseas nationals, people setting off on a round-the-world trip, enthusiasts in Korean culture, and those enthusiastic to pass a specific exam in Korean.
Book now / EnquiryThe Korean courses are also available for 2 or more people studying together (Two-to-One Korean Course or Small Group In-Company Korean Course). All participants must have the same level, the same business or general language needs and be able to study at the same time in the same location. The booking must be made for all participants at the same time. Listen & Learn do not recommend group classes of more than 6-8 people although In-Company Taster Korean Courses can be run with up to 12 people.
