[01] — The overview

A little context.
A bigger picture.

A learning platform that brings live teaching and independent study together. Somang Korean connects tutor scheduling, course content and progress tracking so learners can see both their next lesson and the bigger picture.

Designed for
Korean learners & tutors
The core journey
Learn → practise → progress

[02] — The thinking

The challenge

Bring the whole learning journey together.

Live classes and self-paced lessons follow different rhythms. The product challenge is giving learners one understandable place to manage both, while helping tutors make their availability and lessons easy to navigate.

The approach

Make the next step feel achievable.

The experience is organised around the learner’s next useful action: continue a lesson, book time with a tutor or review progress. A consistent course structure connects individual activities to a longer learning path.

[03] — The experience

Thought through.
From end to end.

01

A personal learning home

A focused overview of course progress, upcoming classes and the next lesson to continue.

02

Live tutor scheduling

Tutor availability and class booking sit alongside the learning content rather than in a separate journey.

03

Self-paced study

Structured lessons and visible progress help learners return to the right place between live sessions.

Behind the interface

Design and engineering considerations.

Two learning formats

Live sessions and independent lessons need a common structure without losing their individual requirements.

Scheduling clarity

Class times, availability and booking states should be understandable at every step.

Continuity between visits

Progress and next actions give returning learners a clear place to resume.
