|
|
Does anyone know of a good place in Seoul to get French lessons. I've seen a number of ads for French people willing to give lessons, but I was hoping for someone with experience in teaching French as a second language.
I was ideally looking for small group lessons of some kind, but if that's not available I could do private lessons as well.
Has anyone found anything like this? |

moi aussi, je suis interesse.
I don't know why you seem to dislike the French. I lived there and found them to be quite alright (as long as you speak French, and you're not from England or the US). |

Then you may say what you think of the Belgians, Senegalese, Swiss, etc. you know, all the other Francophones.
But thanks for the link anyway. |

My French used to be excellent, before I started studying Korean. Turns out my brain can't handle both languages. I need a refresher course! |

Anyone taken the Alliance Francaise classes? I'd be really interested as well, but from the website it seems like it's geared more towards Koreans who want to learn French. |

Not from the U.S. or U.K., eh? I guess that rules out like 370 million people.  |

Check this site: www.macoree.com
They don't offer French classes, but you may find a lot of useful information, including French lessons... maybe.
It is a site for people who are interested in Korea, but everything is in French, except for a small part that's in Korean.
The guy who maintains the site is French and has been in Korea over a decade. Most people who use the forum section are French, but there are some Koreans, Canadians, Belgians, Americans, Swiss, and a few other nationalities once in a while. Not everyone using the forum is in Korea, but a lot are.
Bonne chance a tous! |

Another option you might try is to go to www.goal.or.kr and post an ad for a French tutor. There are LEGIONS of French-speaking Korean adoptees looking for work in the country, but make sure their credentials check out because many did not go to college. |

You could go to the French meet-up. Meetup.com has a bunch of people meeting up. I am not sure how good your French has to be. I always was too busy to go. They sometimes scheduled things at times when I just couldn't make it. I did want to go. |

French is a terrible language.
Go learn German or Russian instead. |

You lost all credibility by saying German. |
