Almost five months ago I started to self-studying Korean.
At first I take online lessons and when I finished the course I felt so frustrated because I couldn't remeber anything that it supposed "I did learn" and then I started with other method to study, I don't lie when I say many months I was thinking "oh this course was such a waste of my time" but today I'm grateful cause I learnt what don't work to me. I think that learn languages is about be persistent one dayI'd hear that many people only get beginner level in their second language because they give up when things get tought. I do not think that I have something different to them, I only think that is fundamental being able to say ,I can not change what I did in the past but maybe tomorrow I can do it better.
