The vocabulary and grammar of each level

Lessons are ordered by TOPIK level, so you meet the everyday words and endings of TOPIK 1 and 2 first and the formal vocabulary and connectives of TOPIK 5 and 6 later. Each lesson ends with a test that checks you can recall it, listen for it and use it.

Hanja: the shortcut for higher levels

Much of the vocabulary from TOPIK 3 upwards is built from Hanja. Hanguljo gives 1,432 Hanja a memory hook each, so learning 學 once makes 학교, 학생 and 과학 fall into place.

Listening and speaking practice

164 real-life dialogues with play-along audio and shadowing, and 72 dictation lessons from real Korean videos, train the ear the listening section needs.

The free Korean level test maps your answers to TOPIK levels 1 to 6 in five minutes, so you can begin at the right lesson.
