Es un curso muy útil que sin duda te guía e introduce en el coreano, lo mejor son los ejercicios y ejemplos que ayudan y facilitan la comprensión del idioma. El único inconveniente es que los subtítulos en español a veces desaparecen o simplemente se ponen en inglés.

A decir verdad, los idiomas no son mi mayor fuerte, en cambio, intenté con ese curso para aumentar mis conocimientos y de paso, tener ampliación de posibilidades académicas y laborales. Estoy maravillada con la facilidad de aprendizaje y lo organizado de los módulos.

I think this course is great especially that it's free. I must say that learning Korean is really challenging though, maybe because our language and accent is really different from Korean's, so I had a bit of difficulty learning it. Overall, I'm thankful. More power!

+ Well done videos and notes altogether

- The quizes were quite easy. I have missed 'all-together' quiz with 아요, 와요, 해요 and others.

- It was not clear for me at first, that all these endings are for present tense. Or aren't they?! Still not sure.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :)

This course was really interesting and exciting for me. Professor Kang explained the Korean alphabet very well. Also, learning basic everyday skills was very useful. I hope the university will continue this course. It was really great to participate in this course.

Hay algunas cosas que me gustaría que se explicaran mejor, como las partículas y en que caso se usan. Fuera de eso creo que es un curso básico donde aprendes muy bien y con una maestra nativa donde escuchas claramente como se pronuncian las palabras. Muchas gracias.

This course is great for those who want to have the basic understand of Korean as well as the basic sentence formation.

For people who want to learn Korean, this is a good start.

I would suggest first to get to know the alphabet (really memorize and get to know them).

I learned the basics of the language. The contexts, grammar, and proper pronunciation has helped me a lot to understand more of what I am learning. It's not just the language that you get to understand but it also provides you with a glimpse of the Korean culture.
