My Virtual Korean Friends: Korean Speaking Practice

About this course

โ€œMy Virtual Korean Friendsโ€ is a perfect course for Korean learners who would like to practice speaking on their own or donโ€™t have many Korean friends to practice with. Practice your Korean speaking with TTMIKโ€™s very own Korean teachers, Yeji and Seung-wan, through the screen as if you were meeting them in person. This course was filmed in first person view supposing the learner is also a participant in the conversations, which makes them more realistic and helps build confidence when speaking in Korean.

  1. Coralie Palazzolo,

    Loved this lesson! It was fun and practices both listening and speaking. Even though I would have liked no subtitles for me too at the no subtitle time ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Talk To Me In Korean,

      We hope this course helps you, Coralie, improve your listening and speaking skills! ๐Ÿค“

  2. KT,

    Really nice Course. ๋„ˆ๋ฌด ์ข‹์•„์š”. ๊ณ ๋งˆ์›Œ์š”.

    • Talk To Me In Korean,

      ๊ณ ๋งˆ์›Œ์š” works but if you want to be more polite and formal, ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค is always safer!

    • Andreas Walther,

      or ist better to use ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค ?

  5. Ann Harrison,

    This was a very creative course!

    I am enjoying your videos since purchasing my membership a few weeks ago, this one is my favourite so far.

    • Seung-wan Yu,

      Thank you for taking time to leave such a nice comment! It made my day๐Ÿ˜Š

  6. Olga,

    This is great for me since I have no one to practice with. It really helps me gain confidence in speaking. Please, upload more lessons.

    • Seung-wan Yu,

      That was the exact purpose of this course when I first planned to make it! I’m so glad that it’s really helpful๐Ÿ˜Š We’ll see if we can add more lessons. Thank you for the comment.

  7. Jenna,

    I just start learning this course, and I see this course, as really helpful for me. I like the way with and without subtitles so I can upgrade my listening skills and understand the short conversation.

    • Talk To Me In Korean,

      Thank you for your feedback!

  8. Sheri B,

    These short conversations are very helpful with audio translation (the hardest part of learning the language for me). I like that the video runs with/without subtitles so I can close my eyes and concentrate on the speakers. The prompts are great and the breakdown of the conversation with suggestions is also very helpful in reviewing the spoken conversation. Once I learn the words, then I can focus on the translation as I listen to the speakers. The bread also made me hungry and looked ์ง„์ž ๋ง›์žˆ์–ด์š”!!!
