I have enjoyed this course because I like to learn common phrases that can be said in everyday contexts such as in restaurants, stores, with friends. These are the places where if you start speaking a few phrases in Korean you feel like you are making progress and become much more motivated.
Thank you for your review!🥰

Very helpful to review. Thank you TTMIK.
감사합니다 🙂
This is amazing, thank u so much.
By the way, Do you have a course about topic and subject markers? Would be trully helpfull.
Regarding the topic and subject markers, we recommend purchasing our Korean Grammar Textbooks and taking our Essential Courses!
Amazing! Step by step! Speaking aloud! Congratulations TTMIK team!
Thank you!
This was fun! i liked how it was broken down into small chunks. It made learning feel easy and complemented well to other courses 🙂
Thank you!!
You are welcome! Enjoy studying Korean with us. 😃
I fully understood this course because it is simple. How I wish learning Korean is simple like this course 😅
That’s amazing!
🙂 Thank you for studying Korean with us.
I attended language courses in Korea but they didn’t teach us quite a lot of these essential words and phrases, so thank you so much! This is really helpful and handy! I’ve got a question though, can 수고하세요 be used when leaving a convenience store or it’s better to use something else as a goodbye?
Thank you for your nice words!
Your example is a perfect occasion where you can use 수고하세요. It is fine to say that. 🙂
Thankyou for this very practical course. It was very helpful and it reinforced many of the phrases I learned in the Essential Level 1 course.
Just one thing. Many of the lessons had this underneath
“You can watch the full video where all the phrases are introduced by clicking on the link here: https://talktomeinkorean.com/pages/20essentialphrases ”
However the link leads to page not found. Where will I be able to find this video? Thankyou
Thank you for your feedback!
We apologize for the confusion. The link leads to this course, and you have watched the full video here. 🙂
The full video is on YouTube.
Could you send the video you referred to? 🙂 Thank you for studying with us!
No worries. For example, at the end of the text in lessons 8 through to lesson 20 it says:
“You can watch the full video where all the phrases are introduced by clicking on the link here: https://talktomeinkorean.com/pages/20essentialphrases ”
But when I click on the link there isn’t a full video where all the phrases are introduced. Instead, it says:
“This road is blocked. Our search bar below will help you find the way!”
Please send us an email by clicking on the “Questions?” button. We are happy to help!
This is a great course, after doing level 1 i was worried i wasn’t retaining anything but this course affirmed that i am learning. Thank you!!
Many thanks 🙂 한국어 공부 화이팅 !
Great course, I really liked that they presented both the casual and formal versions of phrases since beginners need to be aware of the differences and might not know how to alter the formality level themselves yet. I also appreciate the short videos that presented visuals and listen and repeat exercises. Great course for low beginners.
Thank you so much for your comment ! Hope you continue to enjoy learning Korean with us 🙂
Can you pls tell me how to pronounce What are you eating? And what are you drinking? In Korean..
I’m just a fellow student, but I think I can help you.
What are you eating? – 뭐 먹어요?
What are you drinking? – 뭐 마셔요?
Thank you for the kind help! 🙂
