I use Mango Languages, Talk to Me in Korean, and Cyber University of Korea as my main resources to studying the Korean Language. Talk to me in Korean (TTMIK) is a resource I stumbled upon the Internet one day when surfing the web and learning about what other learners used. It provides videos, podcasts, and free pdf worksheets in Levels 1 through 10. This covers vocabulary, tense, and sentence structure. The owners of the website/company are native Korean speakers who are also learners of other languages, so they are familiar with the process, and what works and what doesn’t.
Tia introduced Cyber University of Korea to me and it is another very useful tool for learners who value classroom-based learning. The website has 30-40 minute videos on certain conversational topics; this is the primary source I am using to practice Korean.
I am already familiar with introductions, greetings, and farewells in Korean, but I have been learning life survival phrases such as: asking where the bathroom is, asking/answering the location of certain objects, asking to order food, etc. I make flashcards for vocabulary words and familiarize myself with sentence structure/pattern. I work with my tutor twice a week and use Cyber University of Korea to practice this.
