Busan: free Korean practice with a mentor, apply by Wednesday

If you live in Busan and want to practise Korean with someone every week, the city foundation is matching learners with mentors right now.

Date: Applications close Wednesday 23 September at 12:00
Place: Busan. You and your mentor agree where and when to meet.
Price: The notice does not state a fee
Booking: Yes, through the foundation's online form
Good for: Anyone learning Korean

How it works:

• You apply, then you are matched one to one, based on shared interests
• Activity runs from matching until 27 November
• You need to meet at least twice
• You get a certificate showing the hours you did

Who can apply as a learner: international students living in Busan, and anyone holding a long stay visa of 90 days or more.

Two honest warnings. Places go in order of application, and matching is not guaranteed even after you apply. The notice is written in Korean, so use the language line on 1577-7716 if you need help, or ring the team on 051-711-6846.

Next step: open the event page for the form link and apply before Wednesday lunchtime.
