  • From all of my time trying to learn Korean, I’ve never successfully learnt any until I took this course. I’m very happy that I did. The Instructor was great in delivering the topic of interest and did an excellent job in making the course not just about the Korean language but also personalised from their experiences as a Korean, for individual students who wanted to know more about Korea. Thank you!
