Free, free and free.
Why? To teach you Korean, someone needs to speak clear, articulate English. Grab a grad student from just about anywhere. There seem to be loads who find teaching Korean in English an equal trade: you learn Korean, they speak English with a native speaker for x hours a week. Craigslist is your friend. |

If you don't want to spend extra time speaking your native language to someone...
I paid 20k/hour 3-4 years ago out of Seoul but the teacher had a phD... from a Korean uni. |

Yeah I wouldn't pay too much. Maybe 10,000 won if it's someone casual who doesn't know what they're doing. You are in Korea after all. As a student, I did the "conversation partner" thing in America with Korean students and they were not eager to pay more than $10 an hour usually - but hey, it beat my other jobs. |

Yea what I ended up doing was doing a language exchange on top of that class... but what I had to do was say every class right at the start if we were gonna start with English only or Korean only and then how much time. |
