한글을공부합니다

As I have the afternoons off for the following two weeks (I think), I've decided to get cracking on learning Korean, a task that has been relegated to the back burner since I arrived for a variety of reasons. I've hired a woman that goes by the name of Nain to help me learn and study the language. She teaches at the Changwon Korean class I attend, runs a similar class in the nearby town of Masan, and tutors privately in English and Korean. She is arguably one of the best Korean teachers at the Changwon Korean class, and I've made more progress with her in one evening than I do in 3 classes with other teachers.

One reason I've been putting this off is that I want to develop good habits early on, conjugating verbs correctly, spelling, listening and pronouncing all the new vowels and consonants still difficult for me. I've finally found someone who can help me do this properly, and is capable of answering all my questions.

So, for the next two weeks (at least), I'll be in Masan City, meeting with Nain, and conjugating verbs. Wish me luck! :P
