Program
Pre-TOPIK Korean Preparation Courses
The Pre-TOPIK program is designed for complete beginners or those who wish to build a solid foundation before preparing for the TOPIK I exam. The courses are divided into three levels: A, B, and C, allowing learners to start at the appropriate stage.
  • Pre-TOPIK A
    This course is for absolute beginners. Learners study Hangul consonants and vowels, build basic vocabulary, and practice simple sentence construction.
  • Pre-TOPIK B
    This course is for those who can read Hangul and understand simple expressions. Learners practice practical everyday situations such as asking for directions, shopping, and ordering food.
  • Pre-TOPIK C
    This course is for learners who can read Hangul and form simple sentences. Students are introduced to TOPIK I question types, practice basic vocabulary, and work on beginner-level exercises to prepare for the exam.
Regular TOPIK Preparation Courses
The Regular TOPIK courses are designed to prepare students for both TOPIK I and II exams. Learners systematically practice all test areas, including listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary.
  • TOPIK I (1~2급)
    This course is for beginner learners who can handle basic daily conversations. Students study essential grammar and vocabulary while practicing listening, reading, and writing question types for TOPIK I.
  • TOPIK II-1 (3~4급)
    This course is for learners who have completed the beginner level. Students focus on intermediate grammar (tenses, passive, causative), practice real exam questions, and learn to express opinions.
  • TOPIK II-2 (5~6급)
    This course is for learners aiming for advanced skills. Students work on advanced vocabulary, reading comprehension, logical writing, comparison expressions, and intensive test-taking strategies.
TOPIK Speaking Preparation Courses
The TOPIK Speaking courses focus on building speaking skills for the TOPIK Speaking test. Courses are offered from beginner to advanced levels.
  • Beginner
    Practice self-introductions, describing places, and talking about daily activities to build basic communication skills.
  • Intermediate
    Practice explaining reasons, leaving messages, and expressing simple opinions for practical speaking situations.
  • Advanced
    Practice presenting opinions, comparing ideas, and discussing advanced topics to strengthen test readiness
✅ Course Selection Guide
  • If you are a complete beginner, we recommend starting with Pre-TOPIK A. If you can read and write Hangul and form basic sentences, choose Pre-TOPIK B or C. If you can already manage daily conversations, you may enroll directly into TOPIK I. Level adjustments may be made during the course based on teacher assessment.
