The exercises helped me a lot to reinforce what was reviewed in each unit, and the tests for each level are useful enough to be able to tackle what has been learned. I really enjoyed the course.

El curso está bien pero no dan certificado a no ser que pagues 47€. Me parece un robo ya que online hay millones de páginas y particulares dando clases gratis de coreano y cursos mas completos
