Product Details
Do you want to start posting on social media in Korean? When you say or write things in Korean, do you sometimes wish you could write more complex and sophisticated sentences? Get this bundle and you will see some real progress very soon! This writing package for beginners has three very useful books for you!
Book 1: My First Writing Practice in Korean
What was your day like today? What is on your mind right now? What are you celebrating? These are not only good questions to answer on social media, but also great topics to write about for improving your Korean! Improve your Korean writing skills by sticking to a regular schedule with the 30-day challenge in this book. The TTMIK team designed this book so that even learners with no writing experience can start making realistic and natural sentences in Korean!
Just follow the friendly guidelines in this book and fill in the blanks with words about your own daily life. You will find yourself writing very natural and interesting captions for your social media posts in Korean! Every time you take a photo with your phone, you can easily find a phrase or sentence structure you can use to make a really cool Korean caption.
Book 2: Build & Extend Your Korean Sentences
If you were to sit down at a desk now and write about your day in your journal, what kind of sentences can you write? How accurately can you describe your thoughts in Korean? To express your ideas clearly in a different language, you need two elements: (1) a rich vocabulary and (2) a wide variety of sentence structures you can use. This book will help you achieve the 2nd element, by training you to write more and more complex sentences in Korean!
This book is designed for beginner and intermediate Korean learners that want to practice extending Korean sentences related to everyday activities. You can develop a general understanding of how Korean sentences are structured, and learn to make progressively longer sentences.
Book 3: The Korean Verbs Guide
Never feel uncertain about how to finish your Korean sentences again! This two-book bundle will systematically train you to conjugate Korean verbs faster than any of your Korean-learning friends! Just by memorizing new Korean verbs, you won’t be automatically able to say what you want to say, because you still need to conjugate them into various tenses and voices. This book will help you learn how to do that much more easily.
Learn new words, learn how to use them in sentences, read more sample sentences, and then review with quiz questions! The Korean Verbs Guide will help you not only save time but also save a lot of trouble for when you need to speak Korean confidently in the future.

This bundle really helped when I just started to learn Korean. I am someone who really needs to use a language to learn it, so “My First Writing Practice in Korean” in combination with the verbs guides and “Build & Extend Your Sentences” really helped me with that. The books are easy to use and all the explanations and exercises are easy to follow.
My Korean tutor recommended that I practice writing sentences every day but I end up writing the same things all the time because I am not creative 🤣 My First Korean Writing Practice is awesome because it gives me lots of new ideas. I use the Grammar books to learn, and these books to supplement and extend my knowledge. Very happy with my purchase!
What I love about the TTMIK books is how nicely they’re designed and easy to follow. These books make learning fun and don’t overwhelm you with too much information.
I bought this package about 2 months after starting to learn Korean through TTMIK’s core curriculumn. I used the verbs guides to practice the new grammar I learned after each lesson by conjugating each verb in the structure taught, which gave me 1-2 hours of writing & sentence practice a day. Definitely helped solidfy basic vocabulary and practice Hangul! I’m working through Build & Extend Your Korean Sentences right now, and its helping me better understand Korean grammar. It was a little bit too difficult for me when I first bought the package, but after 1.5 years of studying it’s perfect.
