10,000 won per 90-min lesson, billed monthly. Payments should be made before the first class of each month.*All of our Korean teachers volunteer their time with a genuine passion to serve the local community and support foreigners living in Korea. The modest class fee of 10,000 won per lesson is used to cover the essential costs of operating the classroom and running the Korean language program. It also helps ensure that students are committed to attending and fully engaging in the program.
This fee is not just an investment in your language skills but also a way to contribute to the sustainability of a program designed to enrich your life here in Korea. We believe that the value you receive far exceeds the cost, and we are dedicated to providing you with the best experience possible.
Thank you for your understanding and support!
