Korean Alphabet with Writing Workbook: Introductory Guide To Hangeul Series : Vol.1 Consonant and Vowel

Best book for beginners. My 10 year old wanted to learn Korean.

I have purchased 7 books/workbooks to learn Hangul. As a self-study guide/workbook, this is by far at the top of the list. It’s a stand-alone guide (you don’t need to go online to a designated website or YouTube to use it effectively) that touches not only on writing the alphabet, but also on pronunciation and simple vocabulary words. Each character is contained in a section divided into 1) correct proper formation of the character (in some cases 2 different ways to write it); 2) an introduction to a set of four vocabulary words with Hangul character spellings, pronunciation guide, and a picture of the object; 3) a test to determine whether you’ve learned the letter formation and spelling of the corresponding object; and 4) a word to picture match up. Each letter is treated this way, so that you can spend as much time as you need to familiarize yourself with it and learn how it’s used in vocabulary. There also are additional pages included to practice writing the characters and learn the alphabetical order and names of vowels and consonants, etc. This workbook alone would have sufficed to learn the Hangul alphabet. I highly recommend it and have purchased Volume 2.

I love this book, and learned a bit of Hangeul before getting this so it was a great refresher and helpful with memorizing what vowels sounded like, as that’s where I personally struggle the most. However I wish they would have had more practice on complex vowels like they did the basic vowels. Other than that, I believe this book is a great resource and very beginner friendly! Couldn’t recommend it enough:)

As others have noted, there is absolutely no editorial guidance on how to approach this book. If you've already started learning Korean, or have the drive to create a lesson plan for yourself, it's a good tool. However, if you're looking for guidance none is found inside this book and you might be better served coming back to this after using a different teaching method first.

My daughter and I are tackling Korean. We watch A LOT of K-dramas (not trashy like Hollywood) and were picking up expressions so we decided to get a tool that would aid our progress. This is helpful and there is a laminated common expressions chart we find helpful as well.

very easy to learn. Great book

I purchased this workbook because my daughter and I watch a lot of K dramas, love Korean food and I want to actually learn the language. I spent hours looking at workbooks on Amazon… what the books have to offer and what the ratings are before buying this workbook. This workbook includes how to pronounce (extremely important obviously) the vowels, consonants and combinations. Has practice pages to help with ingraining the letters into your brain. Practice.. practice.. practice!!! I’ve only completed the first 47 pages and can read and write easy words. I can write my whole family’s names and I even found a typo on one of the flashcards set that I was thinking of buying (obviously not going to buy that one because of the typo). I highly recommend this workbook as it is a GREAT first step in learning to read and write in Hangul. I just purchased volume 2 of the series, even though I haven’t completed volume 1. I’m sure that I’ll be highly recommending volume 2 if it’s the same process.

This has been a blessing for me trying to learn to read, write and speak Korean! I highly reccommend.

Really love it so happy with the item

Bin sehr zufrieden !

excelente livro

I would like to learn Korean.... this book has helped with recognising alphabet but I realise I must also be able to HEAR the pronunciation which doesn’t help with this book

good to exercise
