 |
|
Is there any place in the Gangnam area where I can learn Korean? I know of KECC, but they don't offer classes that fit my schedule. Does anyone know of any other places?
Sorry for posting a rather common question but the search engine doesn't seem to work for me. |

Au contraire.
The experience is different for everybody but for those people who learn best in structured learning situations Seoul is the best place to be.
There's a place where my co-worker went but the name of it escapes me at the moment. Maybe it's on this page somewhere. |

I know that people have different learning styles but I doubt that anyone picks up Korean by just using it in the classroom. It is a lot more difficult to practice Korean in Seoul than outside of Seoul. |

There's the KLA (Korean Language Academy) about 200 m east of Gangnam station on the parallel to the north of Tehran Road.
Edit: and I should have mentioned, on the same block on Tehran Road, in the "Platinum" building, there is Berlitz. First class but expensive. |

The price is very reasonable, thanks for the tip, Beav.
Since I plan to attend a uni starting in late March, maybe 1 month of brush up study is in order. |

Wanja,
