One-to-one General/Business
Korean Course in Manchester
Whether you want Korean lessons to help you in your general day-to-day life or for business needs, our made-to-order language courses can help you improve quickly and confidently.
General and Business courses in Korean differ in style and content: a General course will concentrate on developing confident conversational skills, making short visits to the country less of an exercise in frustration and more about building upon the foundations to your own ends. Business courses will centre more on formal, business communication, and focus more on reading and writing skills as you advance further.
Courses are, however, tailor-made - you cover in your lessons what you need to cover. Most students taking a Business Korean course will gain telephone and email expertise, as well as general conversation skills. Similarly, General courses can delve deeper into certain areas of the language that you know you will need.
Typical learners who choose our Business courses are import/export professionals, agents for multi-national companies, and those involved with foreign governments and universities. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn Korean for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific Korean exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a Korean family.

City information
The third biggest city in the UK, Manchester was a vital city during Britain's industrial era, laying claim to being the world's very first industrialised city. With around 2.3 million people in the urban area alone, Manchester continues to be regarded as Britain's second city.
As with most big cities around the country, Manchester's size attracts plenty of overseas visitors, many of whom choose to settle there. This has created a massive cultural variety in the entire borough of Greater Manchester, but particularly in the inner-city areas where there is a high proportion of south Asian, Caribbean, African and Chinese communities. This cosmopolitan experience means the city is a great place to meet people from different backgrounds, and assures you plenty of potential practice partners when you start learning your new language!
Language information
Korean is the official language for both North and South Korea, with around 80 million speakers worldwide. Heavily influenced by Chinese and with grammar similar to Japanese, the language varies fairly widely not only between North and South, but also from region to region. Originally written with Chinese characters, a syllabic writing system called Hangul was introduced in the 15th century, making it easier to write the Korean language.
Korean, however, like most Asian languages, is seen as a challenging prospect for western speakers; with a similar level of difficulty as languages such as Arabic and Chinese. However, it is an incredibly interesting and vivid language spoken in large communities throughout the civilised world.

Do you have experience teaching Korean?
I'm very much enjoying my lessons with Chiara. She's prompt and courteous and makes full use of the time. She's a skilled teacher who is quick to see both my needs and my existing skills and to build on these. I feel I'm learning a great deal about Italy as well as the language.
