1. Master and learn the Hangul : The 한글 or Hangul is the Korean alphabet in my experience is one of the easiest alphabets to learn . It has been used since the Joseon Dynasty in the 15th century A.D. Composed of 14 consonants and 10 vowels, it’s said to be the most scientific alphabet in the world, mimicking almost every human sound and so precise that it’s extra easy to learn.

Probably you might wondering how it might work !?
Why It Works ? Knowing the Korean alphabet is fundamental for reading Korean. In the beginning, you may find it easier to use the Roman alphabet to pronounce Korean words<in my opinion its not a good idea if you learn korean by romanization ) , but you’ll quickly realize that this isn’t sustainable—the quicker you learn the Korean alphabet, the more comfortable and more effective your learning experience will be. Also, you’ll see that the Roman alphabet has some serious limitations when it comes to Korean, especially considering that it has some very different sounds. In fact, some consonants have three distinctions. For instance, ㄱ, ㅋ, ㄲ. The first letter, ㄱ or 기역 (giyeok) has a sound somewhere between g and k. Its pronunciation varies depending on where this letter is located inside a word. The middle one, ㅋ or 키읔 (kieuk) has a sound similar to k, but with stronger aspiration, like very strong k. The sound of last letter ㄲ or 쌍기역 (ssanggiyeok) doesn’t exist in English, so you must get familiar with it. In a nutshell, using the Roman alphabet may lead to you making pronunciation mistakes and it’s an unnecessary crutch, so move away from it as soon as you can!

1. Invest in a Good Learning System Having the right manuals is important on your journey to teaching yourself Korean You can watch Videos on diferent platform and its FREE thats why internet is really helpful in learning languages it brakes many barriers for you to be able to get good at any language you are interesting in . Keep it handy and make sure to review it every day! Why It Works? A language method helps you learn progressively and stay organized. A good language method should have a carefully designed curriculum and increasingly introduce new words, structures and idioms by order of complexity. The goal is to enable you to take the time to assimilate new content and to set up the right foundation for the future. Think of these lessons as building blocks!

2. Flashcards Flashcards aren’t just for middle schoolers. Every learner should find them useful. Read up if in doubt! Why It Works? Flashcards stimulate your memory through visual association. The idea is to burn information into the brain and develop active recall. Over time, after seeing it so many times, your brain will remember the concept learned from a flashcard.!
