BEST AND WORST KOREAN TEXTBOOKS

[@NataliaGarza]

I appreciate this video lol I'm an intermediate learner and I find it difficult to find reviews of more advanced books, so thank you~ 💕 You introduced a lot of books I hadn't heard of before, I'm definitely going to look them up! Thanks, again!!

[@ElliinKorea]

Natalia Garza thanks for the sweet comment! I really hope the books help you. :) let me know if you have anymore questions~

[@Espejoestelar]

I use Yonsei books as my main resource. also have Korean Grammar in use for basic level but I'm in intermediate level now. I may buy it now. Thanks for the video 😊

[@sniper_fox47]

Can I ask a question? , are yonsei korean books teaches formal Korean or both informal and formal? , plz answer this

[@avanithakur2631]

About the Yonsei book , I feel like we have a REALLY similar book like that for German here in India called beste freunde . All the format and the structure you explained and even the size and overall look looks so same ! And that was a really good book so I trust you with this one being a good one as well lol

[@ElliinKorea]

haha it is fun to think there is such a similar book, but for a whole other language 😆 I guess a good structure is universal :)

Hey Avani do you know any website that sells foreign language books all over India?

[@avanithakur2631]

@@__lalisa you could check on Amazon or the offical websites of the books . I think it would be easier to search if you knew exactly what book you want and the language too because it is easier to find German or French books as they are taught in most schools here but for korean books you would have to ship them from abroad so they'll be expensive as hell.

[@avanithakur2631]

@@__lalisa I know that cokodive ships to india so you could check if that has language books or not or try at the korean cultural centre india.

That's a good video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.

[@모니카-n8w]

Many thanks for this video! As a beginner learner I find it very difficult to choose the right textbook so your review is really helpful :)) Like you, I love "Korean Grammar in Use", the other books I don't know yet but I will certainly check out the Yonsei textbook and the vocabulary book. As a recommendation of my own, I would like to add the KZbin channel of "Talk to me in Korean", very helpful and fun to watch.

[@ElliinKorea]

Fiwi Wamaka thank you for the great comment! :D

[@pifboule1]

thank you for that extended and clear review ! As you said, to have the choice I decided to learn korean through english text books (french native person here...). Also, have to tell you that your eyes are so stunning. Anyway, keep the hard work ! :D

[@ElliinKorea]

Thank you for that sweet comment ❤ and all the best for your Korean studies!☺️ 화이팅!

와 엘리쌤이다 ! ㅋㅋㅋ 저의 독일인 tandem친구에게 한국어를 잘 가르쳐주기위해 한국어 교재를 사려고해요. 독일에서 (제 친구가 있는 도시에서는) 서강한국어 교재밖에 없데요. 그런데 제가 교보문고에서 읽어보니 그리 맘에 들지 않더라고요. 오늘 추천해주신 교재 보러 가야겠어요!

[@thesundaefave]

This is really helpful! I heard so much about the Korean Grammar in Use & I heard it's good. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Saved me a lot of time. ❤️

[@ElliinKorea]

so glad to hear it helped you! :)

[@kkakkungsoo]

I'd love to use the Yonsei series for studying but the books have no answer key?? So that's not so good for self-studying

[@sniper_fox47]

I heard that Seoul national university Korean books is amazing for self-studying, the cd that comes with is not supposed to be used on Macs but on Windows, the cd has games , Vocabulary, and practising listening and speaking , I highly recommend this book for self-studying

[@ComtedeMonteC]

Thanks for the video. I have been studying Korean at the Korean Cultural Centre and we have used the Sogang Korean books 1A, 1B, and 2A. The first two are OK but 2A is really not well organised as I had to look up most of the words I did not know on Google Translate as the separate vocabulary list did not include most words. Next year we are no longer using the Sogang books but will be using Sejong Korean book 4 but I do not know how good this is.

[@natsukashiilove2470]

Do you still happen to have the Sogang Korean 1B and 2A books?

[@mahmoodhaq8020]

Great video, could you plz share the pdf of yonsei korean 1-1. Thanks in advance.

[@gabsnotgab]

Hello, is the Yonsei Korean in 3 weeks have english translations?

[@angelm2755]

I wish I found this video before I order ehwa, I ordered it because my tutor from italki uses it and it isn’t easy to follow at all if you’re a beginner. I feel very frustrated currently . The audio for the textbook is also horrible . I feel like the audio jumps around and I’m like “I just heard them say this sentence, but why aren’t they saying the next sentence ? “ it’s all over the place

[@ElliinKorea]

I'm sorry to hear that you feel so frustrated. :( Ewha books are definitly not very beginner friendly. 😭 I just uploaded a video on a great textbook publisher, and they offer a lot of books for beginners too, so maybe that would help you out for future book shopping. :)

[@iroiro_6392]

Hello Elli you're so beautiful and I was quite impressed how much you're knowledgeable on learning Korean. I think this video will help Korean learners a lot since good textbooks are super important for learning languages! Thanks for your thorough review and helpful information:)

[@stephanierodriguez3160]

I used Yonsei in college back in 2012, it was great, also a spanish one made in Argentina I believe, my favorite

[@binkbonk3422]

Thank you for this~! I'm looking to take the TOPIK II next year so I'll be looking into the TOPIK book you suggested. Imma be real those Molang plushies had me a little distracted though haha they're adorable~~ Would you mind sharing where you bought those? I only have the one Molang plush I won from a crane game hahaha :^)

Hey Ellie, Thanks for the video ❤️ I want to know if i finished Seoul book1 + Korean from Zero1, which level in Yonsei series should i start with? I really hope u see my comment.

[@ElliinKorea]

I would suggest checking out Yonsei Korean 2-1 or 3-1 in that case. :) I think you can download them for free so check them out and see which one is more appropriate for you! :)
