First Step Korean

An elementary course in five lessons

First Step Korean is an elementary Korean course built from five lessons across four units. It is organised around four skills, reading, writing, listening and speaking, so practice is spread across all of them rather than focused on one.

Everyday expressions

The topics are the phrases used in daily life: greetings, introducing yourself, and talking about family and your routine. Each lesson mixes conversation scripts, sound work, word lists, grammar points, self-tests and acted-out scenes, which gives a well-rounded mix.

Who it suits

• Beginners who want a skills-balanced first course.
• Learners who like quizzes and role-play to test themselves.
• Anyone who wants to read and write the Korean alphabet alongside speaking.

The course is aimed at a first step, so it works best as a launch point before more advanced study.
