<\/p>\n

1. Talk to Me in Korean<\/a>\"talk<\/a><\/h2>\n

Level: <\/strong>Intermediate – Advanced<\/p>\n

Pricing:<\/strong> From $10.19\/mo (free trial available)<\/p>\n

Easily one of the most popular online Korean resources, Talk to Me in Korean is\u00a0an awesome program with native Korean speakers who really understand how to break down more difficult grammar points.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The course is made up of 10 levels, and each has a “unit” comprised of multiple lessons. For example, Level 1 contains Core Grammar Level 1, which has 26 lessons and takes 3 hours and 30 minutes total to complete.<\/p>\n

One thing I love about Talk to Me in Korean is that they integrate every skill into the course. For example, there are “Speak & Write” courses in every level, and the IYAGI series\u2014essentially a native podcast 100% in Korean\u2014starts at Level 4.<\/p>\n

2. FluentU<\/a><\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Level: <\/strong>Beginner – Advanced<\/p>\n

Pricing:<\/strong> From $11.99\/mo (free trial available)<\/p>\n

\r\nFluentU takes real-world videos\u2014like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talks\u2014and turns them into personalized language learning lessons<\/a>.<\/strong>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nHere's a quick look at the variety of video choices available to you:\r\n<\/p>\r\n\"learn-korean-with-interactive-videos\"<\/a>\r\n

\r\nEach word in the interactive captions<\/strong> comes with a definition, audio, image, example sentences and more.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\"learn-korean-with-video-clips\"<\/a>\r\n

\r\nAccess a complete interactive transcript of every video under the Dialogue<\/strong> tab, and easily review words and phrases from the video under Vocab<\/strong>.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\"practice-korean-with-adaptive-quizzes\"<\/a>\r\n

\r\nDon't stop there, though. You can use FluentU\u2019s unique quizzes<\/strong> to learn the vocabulary and phrases from the video through fun questions.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\"practice-korean-with-personalized-quizzes\"<\/a>\r\n

\r\nFluentU even tracks your progress and remembers all the words you've learned, making for a 100% personalized experience<\/strong>.\r\n<\/p>\r\n

3. KoreanClass101<\/a>\"koreanclass101<\/a><\/h2>\n

Level: <\/strong>Beginner – Advanced<\/p>\n

Pricing:<\/strong> From $4\/mo (free plan with limits)<\/p>\n

While many of its resources require a paid plan, this site has a ton of free material to begin learning basic vocabulary and even phrases.<\/strong> One fun feature is its vocabulary lists, which are often updated for the holidays.<\/p>\n

The free material\u00a0mainly uses audio to teach you. Lesson PDFs, reviews, dialogue audio and interactive learning features are available with a membership only. Either way, it’s excellent for listening practice.<\/p>\n

4. How to Study Korean<\/a>\"how<\/a><\/h2>\n

Level: <\/strong>Intermediate – Advanced<\/p>\n

Pricing:\u00a0<\/strong>Free, with the option to purchase accompanying workbooks<\/p>\n

This site is an excellent resource for those who prefer more reading and writing versus listening.<\/strong> It’s thoroughly organized into units. With each lesson, they introduce you to new vocabulary before explaining a grammar point. They then provide multiple sample sentences for every situation to help you practice it.<\/p>\n

I noticed that when I was studying Korean and needed to search for clarification, this is the site that would pop up and be the most useful.<\/p>\n

5. 90 Day Korean<\/a>\"90<\/a><\/h2>\n

Level:<\/strong> Beginner – High Intermediate<\/p>\n

Pricing:<\/strong> From $35\/mo<\/p>\n

90 Day Korean is one of the most all-in-one resources I’ve come across while studying Korean.<\/p>\n

There’s a free Korean alphabet lesson that teaches you everything you need to start reading. They have a deeply informative blog with extensive guides on how to learn Korean, grammar topics and more. And they have a separate blog specifically about Korean culture.<\/p>\n

But aside from their free resources, they offer four courses\u2014Beginner, Beginner High, Intermediate and Intermediate High\u2014that take you from one level to the next in 90 days. Signing up for one of the subscriptions gives you access to all four, and they say you’ll have reached a conversationally fluent level by the end of the Intermediate High course.<\/p>\n

And if you choose the VIP subscription, you also get 1-on-1 coaching and homework grading.<\/p>\n

6. italki<\/a>\"italki\"<\/a><\/h2>\n

Level: <\/strong>Beginner – Advanced<\/p>\n

Pricing:<\/strong> About $10 an hour<\/p>\n

italki isn’t strictly a Korean language learning site. Rather, it’s a place where you can find tutors who teach the language you want to learn.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can pick your tutor according to their specialty\/lesson category (e.g., spelling, conversation practice, business Korean), availability, other languages spoken (if any) and even the country they’re from.<\/p>\n

If you’re a beginner, you could benefit from someone who’s fluent in both English and Korean and<\/em> resides in Korea. If you’re an advanced learner, on the other hand, you may not have much trouble with (and even be appreciative of) a Korean-speaking tutor even if they don’t speak a word of your native language.<\/p>\n
