Basic steps to take when learning Korean?

Question

Can anyone list basic steps needed to start efficiently learning Korean **independently**? I do live in a *hole* geographically, and I highly doubt that I could find a Korean person in a 100 miles radius (let alone a Korean teacher) :) I am aware of difficulties of learning a foreign language (English is my 3rd language) and **I have already learnt 한글 and can read and pronounce it** (though, since there is no Korean around to check it out, maybe my pronunciation more of Joey-of-Friends-learning-French type). This is where I stuck, since I just don't know where and how to move from here... I do enjoy Korean TV and was wandering if watching it with 한글 subtitles will help me with my learning, but my abilities are nowhere near yet. Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

I'm glad you're watching Korean shows. That helped me a lot when I was learning. If you're feeling stuck, consider joining an online group on Facebook or other places where you can make Korean friends. Online is a great place to meet people who can help you improve your language skills without even leaving the house. YouTube videos may provide some assistance and opportunities to practice. At this point, you will really want to get in contact with someone who can hear you and give feedback,
