About this listen

This is Lesson 1 (of 9) of the Foundation Korean course.

Looking for a beginner language course that fits into your busy lifestyle and gets you speaking a new language in a matter of weeks, not years? Michel Thomas's unique method is designed to overcome the frustrations usually faced by language learners so you can...

  • Pick up Korean naturally and unforgettably without strain or stress
  • Learn from listening and speaking, without the pressure of writing or memorizing
  • Build up your Korean in manageable steps by thinking out answers for yourself

For 50 years, Michel Thomas worked on decoding languages into their most essential component parts. These 'building blocks' are introduced sequentially so that you reconstruct the language for yourself - to form your own sentences, to say what you want, when you want. Within the very first hour you will be able to generate complete sentences instinctively, having absorbed the language and grammatical structures.

You will learn at your own pace, pausing and responding where necessary, and complete the 8 one-hour lessons in about 20-30 hours. By the end of the Foundation course, you will understand and have the confidence to speak basic Korean. You can continue to review and practice with the additional 2-hour Review course before moving on to the next level.

What is next?

This is Lesson 1 of 9 of the Foundation Korean course. The next lesson is Lesson 2 of 9 of the Foundation Korean course. The full course is broken into eight easy-to-manage one-hour lessons. It is important that you complete the lessons in order. The Method is successful because it builds on the language you learn in each lesson and 'recycles' language taught in earlier lessons. Do not skip and always begin with Lesson 1.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

"The thrill is that you're actually figuring it out on your own. You're engaging with another language, not just parroting it... It's an excellent way to start, and leaves the listener thinking, Hey, Ich kann do dis." (David Sedaris, New Yorker, humorist and author)

Finally out on audible!

Micheal Thomas method seems to me to be the most effective way to learn a language by via audio. Waited a couple of years for it to be on here!

I love the Michel Thomas Method!

I know they say not to try and mentally review but I recommend downloading the free accompanying booklet from the Michel Thomas website.

I’ve only completed this first lesson for Korean but have used it for Spanish, French, and Mandarin. I find the courses to be appropriately paced, I love their use of mnemonic devices, and I find myself growing in confidence and motivated after each track.

I also recommend using Korean with Miss Vicky on YouTube to learn the alphabet. And Memrise blows Duolingo out of the water.
