Korean speakers can be found in South Korea and North Korea, but there are also communities of people speaking the language in China, Japan, Russia, and the United States. There are approximately 75 million people that speak Korean worldwide. It is the official language of North and South Korea, and while their dialects differ in some areas, both essentially follow the same standards. Knowing Korean can be useful in your personal and professional life.

Professionally, you can find it helpful to know Korean if you work in international business or government.
What Do San Diego Korean Lessons Help Me Learn About the Language?
Korean lessons can help you study and practice the key concepts of the Korean language. Korean uses different sentence structures than English. Speakers of the language use subject-object-verb, subject-verb, and subject-adjective. Sentences in Korean always end with a verb or an adjective. The subject-object-verb structure can prove difficult for native English speakers because sentences may seem grammatically incorrect even though they are not. For example, the English structure of the sentence, "I drank the water," in Korean would be, "I the water drank." It is also important to listen closely until the end of the sentence because you have to listen to the whole sentence to know if the speaker is talking about the past or future or if they are conveying a positive or negative expression. Verbs are conjugated based on the level of speech needed. Speech levels such as formal polite, informal polite, and casual are used as a way to show respect towards a speaker or writer's audience.
Some other concepts that Korean lessons can help you learn are pronunciation, common phrases, and essential vocabulary as well as Korean history and culture. There are two types of lessons you can choose from. We can enroll you in an online Korean class or connect you with a San Diego Korean tutor. Each lesson type offers its own benefits.
How Can San Diego Korean Lessons Help Me Improve My Learning?
You can build your understanding of the language through Korean lessons in many ways. In Korean classes, you can interact in a virtual classroom setting with a professional instructor and other students who are eager to learn the language just like you. Through our Live Learning Platform, you can see, hear, and talk with your class. Your instructor can use group discussions and learning activities that can broaden your knowledge and improve your retention of information. Learning in a supportive group setting online allows you to learn from wherever you have internet access. If you like working in a group and striving towards the same goal, a Korean class may be a perfect fit for you. You can schedule one-on-one sessions with your instructor if you find yourself needing extra help learning a certain concept.
A San Diego Korean tutor may be better for you if you prefer personalized approaches to learning. We can connect you with an experienced private instructor to help you learn in online or in-person sessions. Online private instruction allows you to study from anywhere, and in-person instruction allows you to study at a location of your choice. Your San Diego Korean tutor can focus all of their attention on your needs and help you try to improve your understanding. With their undivided attention, you can ask as many questions as you have without interruptions from classmates. They can also create a learning plan that is designed to meet your individual needs by getting to know your personality, learning style, needs, and goals.
