I"ve learnt Korean with 선생님 for about 2 years now and I've really liked how the work is helpful for progressing my Korean skills. I like how it's fun and whenever I'm stuck on something, 선생님 answers pretty fast. My class is small right now so I've gotten closer to my classmates and I think that's really nice especially because we're all from different schools and areas of nz.
This course is very engaging, and 선생님 puts in a lot of good effort to help students, so you always have someone to go for for help! I have learnt so much in the past year, I even received an NCEA Level 1 Excellence Endorsement through this subject! I highly recommend
I have really enjoyed this course. The weekly lessons, prepare you for a weeks worth of work. The learning is through a range videos, listening tasks, written tasks and reading tasks. They are topics that are relevant to using in every day situations if I were to visit Korea. You learn so much about Korean culture as well as the language. You are well prepared for the assessments. Sue is a great teacher, who is very supportive. You will love doing this course. It is a lot of fun.
I have learnt Korean with 선생님 for about 2 years now and it has been really fun. I like it because I got to meet many different people in my class since we are at different schools. It was a nice experience for me.
I have loved this Korean course ever since I started at the beginning of last year (2020). The material is very fun and entertaining, which keeps me engaged and able to learn. The learning material is also very clear but any questions and concerns that I have are always answered. I love this as it is very supportive of my learning, and I can really advance with my Korean knowledge.

Taking this course was really interesting and it was so cool that we got to zoom call with Korean students from 숙명여자고등학교 (Sookmyung Girl's High School). During these calls we learned more about the daily life in Korea and made some new friends who we can practice our Korean with. While I was learning Korean in this class I found it a bit difficult sometimes but 선생님 was always there to help me and make sure that I understand and get the language right. Overall it's an amazing learning experience and everyone in the class is so supportive especially 선생님.
