  • Hello, there's some older advice on Korean language classes, but wondering if anyone has recent experience with Korean language classes or tutors they love? I have a 6 year old, we took him to see his grandparents in Korea recently and now he's motivated to learn so he can communicate better when we go back. Thanks for your recommendations!

    I'm originally from Korea. https://okschool.org/ is pretty good. We did a class there and it was pretty good. It is a Sat. morning language class. Unfortunately, my kid wanted to learn my partner's native language, which is more readily available and doesn't require sacrificing Sat. mornings, and we didn't want to do two language schools, so we stopped Korean. 

  • Hello,

    We are looking for a native Korean language speaker with good English skills who loves to teach children. Mostly interested in grammar and conversation. Our son is 12 years old and loves languages. We need the teacher to come to our house once a week, for an hour or so.

    If you know someone who fits this description, please let us know! We live in the Oakland Hills.

    If you don't find someone to come to  your home, you might look through www.Italki.com which is an excellent language exchange. A quick look through shows about 15 professional Korean teachers and 15 "community tutors" who specifically say they teach kids. They have posted profiles and often videos, and a quick glance showed fees from around $9 to $30/hour. I've had great experiences with Italki for Spanish.
