  1. Kim Le,

    i know talk to me in Korean has a premium feature, but with my condition of living, I cant buy it. does anyone know how to improve myself with free and good website and tell me how did you learn Korean (self taught at home please).

    • Talk To Me In Korean,

      You can take free essential courses(grammar) as a basic member! In addition, you can study Korean using our other platforms like TTMIK youtube or podcast. Hope this helps 🙂

  2. Finka Meier,

    Eh? What happened to the disqus conversation at the end of each lesson??
    It was so good! It was the best feature to go along with studying and getting help on something/helping others. 😭😭😭
