"Hyunjong was a great teacher for us. We had 20 two-hour lessons with her and enjoyed them all. We would strongly recommend her as a Korean teacher."

Korean Lessons in Reading
Contact us at Listen & Learn and we will design fun, interactive face-to-face Korean lessons for you without leaving your house. Or, if you prefer, we can have our teachers meet you in a library, a coffee shop, or in any other space of your choosing.
The type of courses we offer:
Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Korean
These Korean lessons are more general in nature and are targeted at students who have a whole range of different needs. While all beginners level students can expect to cover Survival Korean—required for short visits to a country where English may not be spoken and/or the intention is to make good contacts with the local population—students then generally progress in different directions depending on their needs. Typical students include those buying property overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people about to set off on that long-awaited world trip, Korean-culture enthusiasts and those who are keen to pass a particular Korean examination.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Korean
These Korean Lessons are intended for people who really need to learn Korean to help make that difference in their work. For beginners, it will be useful to learn greetings and basic business etiquette; at higher levels, reading and then writing become more important. Typical students include those involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where an additional language is required, and those working with international colleagues, academia and government. Even in our most basic lesson for Beginners, students should expect to end the lesson with basic telephone Korean and Korean e-mail skills for communication as well as survival Korean required for short visits to a country.

Top Tips For…
korean Songs
“아리랑” (Arirang)
Listen to popular Korean songs to learn useful vocabulary, develop your pronunciation and about the culture and beliefs of native speakers! For example, Arirang is a piece that talks about a woman whose lover stops caring about her. She ultimately loses the love of her life and travels throughout Korea to find him. So, you will get familiar with words that express love, sorrow and heartbreak, as well as with geographic locations in the country and words related to landscapes, such as hills (eondeog), clear sky (malg-eun haneul) or long rivers (gin gang).

Spring Day- BTS
Are you a BTS fan looking to improve their Korean skills? Then, catchy, upbeat songs, like Spring Day, can be your best allies. This specific piece talks about two lovers who hate the passing of time because they are not together, and it is great for beginners because it does not include any complicated structures or vocabulary. In fact, the song is entirely in the present-simple tense and uses everyday terms related to feelings, such as hate, love, heart or kiss. Plus, it has a fairly slow pace and a lot of repetition, so you can sing along to the song and practise your pronunciation! Listen to this piece here!Lonely- 2NE1
If K-pop is one of your passions, why not combine it with your Korean studies to improve your skills in a meaningful way? For example, you can listen to Lonely, one of the most well-known hits by 2NE1, a girl K-pop band. The song is about a girl who decides to get over a heartbreak and move on. Instead of feeling lonely and sad about this situation, she realises she needs to get together with her friends and do things that make her happy. The song is great for advanced students because it features a lot of idioms and colloquial phrases. Listen to this piece here!korean Youtube Channels
