WHY LEARN KOREAN?

Korean is the official and national language of North and South Korea, with over 79 million speakers worldwide. It shares similarities with Japanese, due to some vocabulary and grammatical structures, but is generally considered a language isolate (not descended from any other language).

There is an increasing demand for Korean language experts, with Korean businesses branching out to India and Indian businesses regularly dealing with Korean clients. Opportunities are endless! Korean culture is rich and fascinating. Learning the language better equips us to understand the place, its people, the cuisines, and the culture.

The Oriental Dialogue’s Korean courses are designed for all age groups, and for learners of all levels. We also conduct preparatory classes specifically for the TOPIK test, the international test of Korean proficiency. 

If you have studied Korean before, or are self-taught, you may skip the earlier levels and start at the level which matches your skill set. You will have to appear for an assessment for us to determine your proficiency so that you can be placed in the correct class. Get in touch with us to arrange for a virtual assessment. 

If you’d like to know more before signing up, join us for a free demo session to get a feel for our classes. For levels 3A and above, contact us for batches.
