"Too much to learn in a short time"

Mia Breda, student from France

School was good but it’s too much work compare to what I wanted.
The worst was the accommodation. I was in a mini-studio and the AC wasn’t working under 28 degres celsius. So I move to another mini-studio but this time, there was moulds all over the wall and on the bed sheet… very discussing. And more, I did have a water break and the manager said that he would repair it AFTER my depart. Real awful experience because of the accommodations.

"Challenging"

Patricia Anderson, student from Canada

I had a great experience at Lexis. It was well organized and all the teachers and admin staff were friendly and helpful.
I think in all of South Korea Lexis could find good teachers who also speak English. This would help at the beginner level. I also think there should be a bigger focus on verbal skills in class at beginner level, and less focus on grammar and written exercises.
The class environment was a little too academic. More games and speaking opportunities would be better to make the learning more fun. I avoided university 10 week summer programs because I didn't want an academic experience. what I'm saying is - more fun, less slogging!

"Great experience, fast-paced learning"

Katrina Hamilton, student from Australia

I had a great time learning Korean at Lexis Korea. Teachers were very patient and helpful. There were a lot of opportunities to ask questions from the teachers and work on activities with other students. Location of the school is great. The learning is quite fast-paced at times but I personally enjoyed that. However, I did do some previous Korean study before attending so I could see how it may be overwhelming for those who haven't.

"Excellent teachers, greatly situated in Gangnam, friendly staff but inconsequent evaluation process."

Anke Pulverich, student from Germany

My overall experience of Lexis Korea was great and I would come again. Only one thing which was a bit sad was the evaluation process. In order to join the correct classes which suits your Korean language, every pupil had to briefly talk with a teacher at the beginning of his/her studies. This is actually great! However, I quite wonder how a teacher can be able to evaluate the Korean level of a student after having talked about 2 sentences with him/her...

Apparently there are also differences in the level up process itself: While some wrote an email to get levelled up resp. to join a more appropriate class, others had to talk to different staff members or do a test. This creates frustration among the students since they are talking to each other.

"It was an amazing experience, one I will never forget."

Sydney Lucas, student from Afghanistan

The school was clean and tidy with extremely helpful members of staff at the front desk. If you had any quires or needed any help they would do the upmost to help you. All if the teachers I had were really patient and kind, which is really useful when learning a new language. The classes were fast paced, but if you were stuck the teachers would help you to the best of their abilities. Every week they had activities on a Friday, which got you out and about and seeing lots of interesting tourist destinations. Lastly, the location was easily accessible by the subway, which meant here ever you wanted to go it was easy a to get there after classes. There are lots of restaurants, connivance stores and cafes close by so whenever you got hungry you could just pop downstairs and get something. Most importantly there is a really good pharmacy with the staff speaking English at the bottom of the building, which I used multiple times and was extremely useful.

I stayed in the mini-studios. Personally, I found them extremely small but this was how it was described so I cannot fault them for that. However, in my particular room I couldn't get any hot water, and sometimes the water would not run clear, this lead to me stay in a hotel for half of my time in Korea.

"Fun!"

Maiya Jordan Caldwell, student from South Korea

My course was challenging for me but very fun. I was very excited to take a class one on one in an immersive concept. It really forced me to try and think and understand concepts in Korean. One thing I really struggle with in Korean is sounding natural and this is really helpful. I hope I can come back and take another course someday!

"It was very intensive learning"

Victoria Frances Daughen, student from USA

My teacher was incredible, and I could see someone learning Korean very quickly and intensively with this program. However, I would have liked more cultural experiences/lessons included as well. The coursework was very heavy, so this is not a program for someone who wants an easygoing course. This would be a good preparation program for someone trying to obtain fluency in Korean.

"Everything was great except the housing."

ASIA COSSU, student from France

The classes were good although very repetitive in format and the teachers were very nice but not very helpful for the total beginners. The location of Sejong University is good at is it on line 7 which makes it easy to go anywhere. The facilities were basic but fine. The activities with Lexis were great and our culture class teacher Miss. Hong Heejeong was especially amazing. The housing in the mini studio wasn't great, there was no central heating, the sink water ran onto the floor which made it constantly humid, there were roaches in the hallways and in the kitchen which made me reluctant to cook.

"The best I could hope for"

Claire Dezaunay, student from France

I had an amazing time at Lexis Seoul! I had great teachers who taught us korean, and I felt like I was learning really fast! I liked that we had different themes (one new theme every monday): I was never bored and really happy to learn useful things :)
The other students at Lexis were all eager to learn, everyone for different reasons,but it was really nice to meet new people and learn about their culture as well as the korean one.
I stayed at the student residence, in the bedroom for 2 people. It was really nice: we had everything we needed and had a quite big room for ourselves :)
The only bad thing I could say is that I didn't booked for longer haha
If you are hesitating to go there, do it! You'll love it ;)

"The course was intensive and I learnt a lot in a short time."

Linnea Vasstrand Nordaas, student from Norway

I had a great experience at Lexis, I was challenged in my language learning but also learnt a lot in the short time I was there.
The teachers seemed to have quite high expectations towards me which could sometimes be a bit hard, and I was constantly told that I could not make mistakes which caused some stress, but I still feel like the course was effective

"Great value and great teachers, highly recommended!"

Julie Berg, student from Norway

For me, personally, the person who made this experience perfect was my teacher. She put a lot of effort in preparing for each class, and other students were jealous we had her as a teacher. If you get Lee Hojin as your teacher, count yourself as extremely lucky! Not every teacher is as great as she is.

The facilities are great, the location is amazing - right in the middle of Gangnam with a lot of eating and shopping possibilities. Each Friday (and sometimes every other Thursday) Lexis offers some activities. The best one was Taekwondo, but kpop dance was also great. I would skip "egg bread" day tho.

The housing location was great, right next to Lexis. However, the bathroom was not that great. The shower was moldy and it leaked all over the floor. We had to buy our own pegs to hang up our towels, as there is very little storage in the bathroom. It was hard for the towels to dry as well.

The heating apparatus on the wall was also insanely difficult to understand, but after a few hot and restless nights I finally got some sort of explanation from the information desk at Lexis.

The language barrier is tough at times, but the people at Lexis really try to understand you and help you - if they can't, they will call someone who maybe can!

"Friendly staff and great memories"

Laura Whelan, student from Australia

I did not participate in the housing program. However I found the school to be a wonderful facility with kind and helpful teachers. Admittedly, some of the teachers’ English skills sometimes made learning specific grammar points mildly difficult, but they always helped with examples in Korean. I think the initiative behind the meetup between Korean and western students was a very fun and valuable experience, however I only wish that the second time that I attended there were more Korean students in attendance as well, which is understandably in part, outside of the schools control. I only wish I could have attended for longer, and if I find myself in Seoul again, I will likely attend again.

"My studies and adventures abroad and at Lexis Korea were an unforgettable experience where I significantly improved my language skills and cultural awareness."

Amy Wang, student from USA

The classes were intense and fast-paced, being accurate to their description. I enjoyed the speed because then with my limited time of 3 weeks, I could really get as much improvement as possible. Also, the class structure was innovative and efficient due to how there were weekly exams and how anyone can start and end at any week. The written and verbal quizzes encouraged consistent review of concepts, grammar, and vocabulary which was extremely motivational and beneficial. I really enjoyed how positive and encouraging the teachers are. I like how there was a good mix of writing, speaking, and listening. I like how students are encouraged to interact during class through language skill activities. A negative aspect is that sometimes when some students in a class are much slower, they hinder the improvement of others in partner activities. My teachers were extremely nice and very attentive to our questions. They were great at presenting the information in a fun and engaging way. Something that was difficult sometimes however was when they did not understand what we were trying to ask them in English. The facilities were clean and convenient, especially the Student Lounge. The activity calendar was a nice touch, but I do wish that there were more activities throughout the week. I would have liked to do more cultural activities and meet-up activities throughout the week rather than having them only on certain days. Also, I was looking forward to a cooking activity, which was said to be once a month, but it did not occur. I think the interaction between international students is very valuable so would have liked to see more of this outside of classes through a greater frequency of activities. My homestay family was incredible and an essential component of my wonderful experience in Seoul this summer. I stayed with a grandma, and she was one of the best parts of the experience, because I was integrated into the culture so much more easily, she helped improve my Korean even more daily, she was a huge source of support (in particular, helped me through a time of great need), she introduced me to food and ideas that I otherwise wouldn't have known, and more. The apartment was nice to stay in as well, and the location was great. I highly encourage the homestay option, but I do think it is quite expensive. Overall, I feel lucky to be placed in the homestay family I was in.

"Great school, fun experience... lack of supervision with host family"

Michael Palley, student from USA

The classes were fun and challenging. This was my first time studying Korean. The teachers were very nice and the building was in a good location.

Parent addition to review: As Michael's parent, I was not happy that the host family did not hold him accountable to the curfew. Michael loved staying out late and wondering around Korea with his new school friends, but I did not think that was appropriate for a 16 year old boy away from home for the first time. I would have preferred the host family require him to be home for dinners and curfew.

"Helpful"

Lisa Ramlal, student from Netherlands

The classes were great. I liked how they were fully in Korean. At times however, I did feel like I could have been placed in a higher level, because I felt slowed down by other classmates. The teachers were very friendly and helping. The location was great, because it was near the subway station. Didn't participate in activities during my stay. The housing was good. Clean and big room. Only a small problem occurred, because I got the wrong room number. The Phone number i got didn't answer when I called. But they gave me the right room number when I called the emergency number.

"Dream"

Anastasiia Skrybykina, student from Russia

Hello! I and the truth very much was pleasant to study in Lexis Korea! At lessons everything was clear and interesting, there was no framework, and the teacher constantly joked and lightened us the mood without forgetting about a lesson. Right after lessons we had not a big lunch break and excursions which were organized very well. Generally it were sights or the museums, but as something weakening were to - the kpop dances on which we not only learned new choreography, but also could reveal themselves on the other hand.
The location of school is very convenient, nearby there are a lot of inexpensive restaurants at which it is possible to eat tasty, it is a lot of shops and in several steps of the subway.
I lived in 30 minutes by the subway from school and at first me this scarecrow, but host family helped me to understand and spent in the first day of study. Also, if something wasn't clear to me, then I could ask easily a host family , and they well explained everything to me. Conditions of accommodation were excellent.

"Everything from accommodation, classes, teachers and extracurricular activities has/have been incredible"

Madalina Bogdan, student from UK

I enjoyed everything about Lexis. The teachers are fun and refreshing, the staff are very friendly and eager to help. Everything has been like a dream. With the exception of missing my flight because of an error with the pick up service and having to pay again for another flight and hotel. Other than that I would strongly recommend Lexis :)

"Lots of fun"

Felix Abbott, student from USA

Overall they were really good, I did the beginners course and the teacher taught in English but used a lot of Korean in class. I heard all the other teachers only teach in Korean so I'm not so sure how I would've liked that being in such a low level class but overall I had a great experience. The location in Gangnam was really nice and my mini studio was right across from a 24/7 mini-mart so that was super convenient. One problem with the studio was it was quite hot, I don't think they ever turned on the AC while I was there even though they said they'd turn it on once it got hot enough but in my opinion it made it to the 70's/80's and no AC which was annoying. It did come with two fans though so I just left those on 24/7 and put them right in front of me and I was fine. However, the WiFi was also super spotty and some days it'd break-up a lot so for future reference they should try to pick places with solid WiFi. Only issue with the teachers/staff was that they mixed up my dead name in the beginning so for future reference it should be more clear which name you're suppose to use on their sheets or something, otherwise they were fine.

"I loved every single day of it, i was sad going back home honestly,"

Kaylee Vercruyssen, student from Afghanistan

The school was great, personally it helped me a lot that everything was 90% Korean talking wise.

I learned a lot but that also remind me i need to learn even more. I hope to come back to Korea again soon.

Thank you!

As for my home stay, it was great! My host parents were very nice and caring, i could talk to them anytime.

They wanted to help me grow in socializing and talking Korean. They made me feel at home and I didn’t feel uncomfortable.

I loved it so much!

I did have a problem with one of the teachers at the school, she was very discouraging and was angry that I was in her class for some reason even though I was trying my best with studying and was doing well with my homework. I talked to the front desk and switched my evening class to a different (easier) class with a different teacher who was exceptional and although the class was way too easy (i had learned the material years ago) the class experience was so much better that i ended up learning more. The housing location was a little far from the school (about an hour going each way) but nevertheless I liked it, there was a lot to do in that neighborhood. The school facilities were very nice and updated. The activities were repetitive but worth trying out at least once. The highlight would probably be my host family as they were very helpful in my language acquisition.

"Perfect for learning Korean fast and fun"

Hélène Varrin, student from Afghanistan

I liked everything. Everything is well organized. The teachers are excellent. They are all very nice and available if someone has a problem. The location is ideal. The building is very nice and the area is very nice. The activities organized by the school are always great and not expensive (sometimes free). For my part, I was able to cook kimchi and paddle on the Han River. The Meet Ups and the Students Nights organized by the school are very good ways to meet Koreans. And most importantly, in this school, learning Korean is very fast and efficient, while remaining really fun!

"I learned a lot about korea and the language in a short time!"

Kim Feline Mia Johanna Zofia Nilsson, student from Netherlands

The moment I arrived it was very overwhelming since I didn't know ANY Korean, but everyone took good care of me so I felt at home very quickly. My mini studio was DEFINITELY very mini but since I was mostly at school or at cafes I didn't spend too much time there anyway. The classes and teachers we're great and I still miss those. The teacher definitely made every class worth going to.

"Best experience of my life!"

goncagül cömert, student from Turkey

Lexis Korea was amazing with regards to teaching Korean and Korean culture. Our teachers was like our friends. I liked everything about Lexis. The accommodation was really small but it wasn't so important because all you need is a bed for sleeping and the location is really good for reach everywhere. I really would recommend Lexis because of their excellent teaching. Thanks for everything

"It was a really good experience"

Yifat Scheinfeld (יפעת שינפלד), student from Israel

The location is very convenient, the teachers were really nice and taught well. My Korean skills improved a lot even though I was there for short time. I didn't avail of their housing options so I don't know much about it. The activities were okay. Some was helpful and fun and some was just okay. But the general experience was really great.

"Learned so much from the sweetest teachers!"

Katie Bossio, student from USA

My experience at Lexis was incredible. I was placed in just the right section, though there were some others that had to get moved around after their first week because our class was too easy. My teachers were so wonderful, and I still have contact with them - They pester me to keep practicing by sending them sentences to correct! This is particularly wonderful because I used to use a paid service for help from native speakers.

I was a little disappointed by the school's activities - I was told there would be weekly excursions and a couple of the weeks were just activities at the school. However we did go to Lotte World and Bukchon Hanok Village, and that was really fun.

I was paired with an incredible couple just about 20/30 minutes away from the school. I had to take the subway, and I was very glad to have a friend to help me figure it out. I was told that I would be less than 15 minutes away from the school though, and this was not the case. However it was very easy to get to once I had my routine down. If you have a host family they're supposed to take you the first day, and if you live in the other accommodations they are very close to the school.

I would so recommend this to people who want to authentically learn Korean because it is an immersive and positive environment. I was shy at first but soon I really wanted to show off to my teachers by speaking as much as possible. The front desk greets you every day as you come off the elevator to the 11th floor.

My advice - try not to go during July/August. That's when I happened to go, and the classes were packed! As soon as I left, they started to empty out. If you can go not during the typical summer break, really try to do that, as it'll be worth it to be in really intimate classes.

Homestay allows students to live with a local family, experience day to day life in Korea and enjoy some amazing food! There is no better way to develop your language skills and learn more about this fascinating country.

As with most Koreans, our homestay families are eager to share their culture with our students, and can introduce you to some of the hidden delights of Seoul.

In cooperation with “Homestay Korea” we offer students a searchable database of homestay families in areas all across Seoul.

Some families live in downtown apartments, others in larger homes in the suburbs. In every case, you will be welcomed as a guest to the house and will have the chance to experience the hospitality for which Koreans are so well known.
