Korean Language Schools in Seoul

Seoul is huge! You can't explore the city in one holiday. You should get tips from the academy on where to go, otherwise you will get lost in the city. If you are travelling alone, it is sometimes difficult to get a table when eating out, but you will definitely find something a few doors down. You'll need a second suitcase for the return journey because you've bought so much stuff ^^

The people are mostly friendly and helpful, but as a foreigner you are sometimes looked at or ignored. Many people here speak little English, so it is helpful to know a little Korean. The public transport is great. The city is really huge and there are unfortunately few green spaces or larger parks. Shopping is very expensive compared to eating out. There are lots of nice cafés.

I am absolutely impressed and already knew on the second day that I had to come back. As a woman, I have always felt very safe, even on the way home at night. The Koreans were very helpful and helped me in every emergency, which impressed me very much and is not something that can be taken for granted.

Seoul is a must-see and very interesting city. At the moment, however, a lot has been shut down due to Corona. You can therefore only visit museums and sights to a very limited extent. For this reason, I can't say much about the nightlife.

I felt the warmth of the people in the city, who were rather nosy and at the same time really friendly. I could not get used to the dirty toilets for two weeks. Gyeongbokgung Palace was a lot of fun.

Seoul is an amazing city, I can't wait to come back! The people are nice, there are a lot of activities whether cultural, shopping or just for fun. And the most important thing: we are safe there!

Great city, you should just generally try not to come to South Korea in summer, as the humidity and heat are not so pleasant. However, everything indoors is air-conditioned

Seoul is a very busy city but you manage to get into the right pace and thanks to the culture and the locals you then feel at home

There are many people and the air is not clean, but I think I can live without any inconvenience.

I have always loved this country, I hope I can return there soon and in the same school

There were few Japanese students, and I could interact with people from various cultural backgrounds.
Overall, it was well-organized. There weren't many attendees from any specific country, making it a wonderful opportunity to experience diverse cultures.

Course: Intensive Korean (Full-Time) - 1 week
Student age: 64 years

The class size is just right, usually around 6 to 12 students, so everyone gets a turn and you can't hide. The teachers are very nice and try to explain everything in Korean, only in exceptional cases is something said in English. You are gently ‘forced’ to speak and make up your own dialogues, which is very good for getting the courage to speak yourself. I quite liked the textbook, but you should probably have some previous knowledge, then it's easier to keep up and you don't feel overwhelmed. I wasn't there long enough for the afternoon activities (2 week course), but I think if you stay longer, there will definitely be some great activities.

Course: Regular Korean Language Course - 2 weeks
Student age: 50 years

I LOVED my time at Green Korean Language School! Everything was smooth and welcoming, from the informative E-Mails by the languagecourse.net staff to my first day in class. The quality of the lectures and my teacher were amazing. I was in class with 5 other students from all over the world and the learning environment with them was perfect. The level the school assigned to me after my placement test fit perfectly. It was a challenge but that’s exactly what I wanted. It’s also very uncomplicated to switch levels once you are there, if needed. Next time I would love to stay for longer.
Will definitely come back!
