I want to start learning Japanese and am wondering if anybody knows of any places where I can do it in Seoul?

My girlfriend took Japanese lessons at a school for a while. The lessons were in Korean. If you like, PM me and I'll remember to ask her for details.

If you're in Busan I will be practicing my Japanese and trying to round up some Japanese students that want to practice English. I have a few books and I am getting some more sent to me. They would cover everything from hiragana to the 1st level of JLPT.

PM me if you're in the area or interested in some pointers

Don't know about Seoul but most of the Japanese hokwon teachers I've met can speak English too.

I heard there was some place in Myoungdong, thats all I heard though. Sorry

Somone I know knew a guy that was studying Japanese somewhere in Seoul but I don't know exactly where. Lost track of the guy otherwise I'd ask for you. Don't know where he's working now. But I know you can study Japanese somewhere.

I met a japanese girl in my apartment today. She might be up for some privates.

Check out YBM, I know the Jongno one teaches Japanese, Im guessing the Gangnam one does too.

Tried doing a little looking around but no look. I live in Bucheon so if I can get lessons there that'd be great but I'm willing to go to Seoul.

Does somebody know an email address for the YBM in Gangnam? I'd like to ask them if they do Japanese lessons.

In the meantime if anyone knows any more ideas then please let me know.

Thanks

you might be better off getting a private Japanese teacher.

I have some Japanese friends who are actually Japanese teachers. I can ask them if you are seriously interested.

I think one charges 20 per hour.

Also, many Koreans are pretty good at Japanese, they often studied it from Middle/high school...

you could get some lessons. One of my Korean students has a masters in Japanese... it would not be hard to find a Korean who can speak English and Japanese well... it would be cheapest way to learn I would think.....
