Customer reviews

"I'm a sucker for language learning materials and have spent a lot of money on them. Most books sit gathering dust as I soon tire of them. NOT the case with any of the books I've ordered from TTMIK and though I usually shy away from reading early days, I was very happy to find this one with audio files. Watching the video and listening to the audio has given me the courage to face the words! And I actually can feel myself recognizing the printed word. Noticing this progress (it used to take me ages just to sound out the letters) is great motivation to continue. These materials are just the best!"

"excellent explanation of each of the stories and also various ways to say things. I want to partly include a review for the book as I think it's an excellent resource and if you were to make another one that is a bit higher level with the same variety that the reading book brings I would buy day 1. I hope for there to be more books like this and I wholeheartedly recommend this video series and book. although for the next book it would be better to not have the repeat section but just slightly longer stories followed by the vocabulary or culture notes. Also let 박주연 do the narration."

  1. Marco Pandullo,

    I just bought became a pro member after your site restyling, and I am loving it! This course is amazing but I never felt like buying it. Having access to all your great material through the pro subscription is brilliant! I am looking forward to study a lot more from today thanks to you guys! Have you considered making an app and transfer the whole website there? It would make for an even better study experience, imho, instead of having to access the browser. Most people study on their phones anyways.. just my 2cents. Keep it up, you guys are amazing!

    • Talk To Me In Korean,

      Thank you for sharing your comment. We will absolutely consider your suggestion if we are going to make any upgrade for our service. Happy studying : )

  2. Tamara Biedenfeld,

    He does a very good job of explaining things to us. Even the words are straightforward, he’ll at least tell us what the word is in its base form. He makes it very easy to take notes.

    • Hwayeon Kim,

      Hi, I’m Hwayeon from TalkToMeInKorean. Thank you for your comment:)

  3. Tran Ha,

    This video course is really helpful. I hope that TTMIK will make more of this kind of video lessons using stories. I’d be interested in purchasing. I like how the sentences are explained and pronunciations are pointed out on specific word that is pronounced differently than it appears (sound change).

  6. Seasaí,

    I love this course very much! The content is so well explained and very easy to follow. I also love how little pronunciation things are pointed out. I’m about halfway through and already I have learned so much. Thank you so much to TTMIK for this! No better place than here to learn Korean 🙂
