Patchim Training:Learn Korean

This app is what I was looking for for the past few years. All of the other apps cost money, didn’t help, etc. But with this you can learn so many different things at different times! And I’m had this app since March (4 months ago) and I haven’t had to pay almost anything. Even the mini games are free and I can actually learn and remember how to say words/sentences. I love this app so much and I think its great for everyone. Even beginners

I love that this app implements different learning styles like handwriting, typing, and pronunciation to learn Hangul. This app is VERY in depth- they offer lots of practice opportunities without making it boring. It feels exciting to actually be learning something from a phone app. However I have a few notes to the developer: I think it might be helpful for first time learners to receive "helpful tips" on special characters like ㅇ, double consonants, and dipthongs. Or perhaps you can create a separate learning bubble in the home page for this. My second thought is that I love the idea of collecting these recipe cards but it feels a bit exhausting receiving one after every study set. Perhaps it would feel more rewarding to receive them after 10 study sets or whatever. This way the player might feel more incentive to continue learning.

I’m a language nerd and have studied many of them (10+) over my 36 years, so I’ve had lots of experience with different modes of learning. This app is one of the most useful and practical language learning programs I have ever used. I appreciate how it breaks down grammar and how it has many different options (visual, auditory, writing, etc.) to give you lots of great practice and explanations. There are so many helpful games and minimal ads, so you can just keep going and going. I’ve only been using this app for a few days and already my Korean has improved greatly. It keeps me wanting to play with all of the fun, encouraging graphics/sounds and I feel I will be much better prepared when I move to Seoul this summer! A+ from this teacher, developers!
