WORD Wednesday--Learn Korean Online

Grrr. Our internet is on the fritz here, so I'm a bit rushed to get this post done before I bounce out the door. But wanted to share this language site with you.

Learn Korean Online is video based Korean class. The videos were filmed during an actual language course taught by a native English speaker.

The videos and the accompanying study pages are delivered to your email so that's handy and convenient. The lessons are bite-sized chunks, ranging from 10-25 minutes each, and you can watch them as much as you want.

The whole aim is to get you speaking Korean. The instructor does work on writing/reading for the first 2 lessons, but moves away from it after that to focus on speaking. And he does a decent job of explaining things (from the bits I have watched).

The first 4 hours are free but I can't find any more information about what happens after that. I haven't worked my way through this course yet, so if you do, let me know what happens next! I think there is a full online class that you can sign up for...
