Shouldn't you just take Korean lessons in Korea or something?

Cool idea though, hope it works out. Good luck Qxc!

If you want to learn Korean seriously, I doubt skype will work out.. You will need professional lessons.
If you just want to learn Korean's common expressions to like go out, read signs, buy food from markets, etc. then you can learn it in like 2-3 months. Good luck.

It's super hard to get that "second nature" ability in Korean if you're not immersed... I've learned it for about a month now. It's considered one of the most difficult languages (for English speakers, I guess it's a bit easier for me), so it will take a loooong time before one can even reach a basic conversational level. As a language it is still interesting, hope you can stick with it.

Hum. I'd love too but (as many people here seemingly) I don't speak Korean.

Let's make a deal. I teach you French and in exchange I get half the lessons and a small can of pickled herrings.

What do you say? =D

Hard bargain?

How's a third of the lessons and an Ikea lava lamp sound?

Still no?

... perhaps I can teach you how to play "go" ("baduk" in Korean, see you learned something!) in exchange for one ultimate lesson of how not to die in TvP?

I majored in korean studies and I still can't speak it.
So, good luck to you!

O.K., you shouldn't be discouraged by this: university is a lot different anyway. You will have to learn ALL the korean grammar in only 2 years. That's really a lot - Korean is a very complex language - and so there was basically no time for conversation lessons.
I'm pretty sure with so many korean teammates it will be a lot easier to learn to actually speak it!

However, if you have any questions regarding the grammar, feel free to ask! Sometimes Grammar is easier explained by a foreigner from your own language group (I'm german) than from a native speaker.

If you have problems with the pronounciation changes (like k before m suddenly ist not pronounced k but ng. Or DongRaeGu is more pronounced like Dongnaegu etc.), I would recommend you to listen to Korean Music while reading the song text in hangul. It helps to get a feeling for these changes.

And when you learn the vocabulary, learn how to write it, too!!!
Don't just learn togil = Germany!!! If you learn it like that and later you want to write a letter to somebody or a short notice, you won't know anymore if it is written 도길 or 독일 (독일 would be the right choice)...

You can use

as dictionary.

All the best QXC, but this isn't an efficient way to learn Korean. You should try to find weekly exchanges (in person if possible). These informal "ask questions as I have them" will never get you to the level where you can have any sort of conversation.

Still, whatever you do- if you stream it a lot of us would like to watch. Many of us want to understand Korean commentary but don't have the ability to reach out to the community like you! Stream for us please? :3
