“How do YOU organize your study notebook?”
*”I don’t, that’s why I’m here”*
Monster Master same here
Hahaha
Pokey Oat lol
i am trying so hard to not laugh at this during class right now
Anyone else have a stationery habit and happen to have thousands of varied notebooks and pens in the house? 😂
Join the club :D
Too many to count, yet where does the perfect one hide when I need it?
Thank god for aliexpress. ♥
Me! * raises hand *
... I stock up on multi-coloured Zebra Z-grip pens (the best I've ever written with, i swear!)
... and Sharpies, every year after the "back to school" stock goes into sale prices lol
18 sharpies for £2.50? Yes please :p
I believe could supply a small university by now ^_^
I actually bought a new notebook today to use for all th new words I stumble across in my twitter feed...
... it's...well... 진짜 예뻐다 ㅋㅋㅋ
Yep me
My Tip;
Sometimes I write notes but never look back at them..I realized that when I create something nice, like a drawing or a page in my kpop journal, I tend to carry it around, look at it over and over again, basically memorizing every detail. So make your study notebook eye-catching, then not only do you like the result of ending product, but you'll like the process of making it as well.
When I don't have the money-
😭
And I keep running out of Black ink-
At this point I'mma force myself to find work cause my Momma doesn't really support my studying this language. ( She only tolerates it)
thanks for the tips i think your tips will be useful while studying other lessons also not only Korean~~ keep it up I'm your fan from Suwon!!!!
yeah learning with Billy is good he has a lot of good tips~~~
You have to have a special level of confidence to write with a pen. I use a pencil, because I make a lot of mistakes. I recently bought erasable color pencils, which blew my mind that they even existed. I currently have 3 notebooks. One of which I use for random Korean RUclips videos. My other two are for grammar books.
I also use erasable highlighters which are awesome too. They've got everything these days :)
Frank M I thought I had the perfect system but your erasable colored pencil suggestion is on today’s essential shopping list.
Erasable highlighters?!?!?! Omg my life is complete.
I use multiple coloured pens... and occasionally... Tipex (white out)
Wasn't allowed to at school... No idea why, it's fabulous stuff.
... By the way I make far more mistakes in the English parts of my notes, than the Korean parts.
My English spelling is apaling broderling atrostious...
When I was first studying Korean, I used the color coding system to help me learn the sentence structure, verb conjugation rules, sentence examples, vocab, and the special conjugation rules. It's a bit time consuming to switch pens all the time, but looking back it's easier for me to visually review what I learned without having to read the entire page/section. I hope someone else finds my method a bit helpful to help study!
Same.

Ohh this is really useful!! I'm planning on learning korean again because I've been busy with learning for my finals!! I hope I'll graduate because then I'll have a lot of time to study!!
Fiji _02 hope you do well
@@santiny4043 Thank you!!!💕
Good luck on your finals. ☺️☺️
@@margarethsundiang8444 Tysm😁💕
@@fiji_024 same!! I've been so excited to just finish my exams and graduate, and then study korean without having school in the way :) Good luck with your exams, I know you'll do well 👍💛
I'm so glad you mentioned a second review notebook. I have my nice color coded notebook, and my messy initial notes
I’m almost finished your 90 min Hangul and used a notebook, could have used it before, I used a lot of colours
I used green pen for pronunciation, red for strokes, black for the actual Hangul and blue for any other info. In terms of highlighting, I used blue for titles, yellow for any Hangul I write, orange to split the page into segments and green for practice
Do u know korean know 한골!?
Now*
@@Nat-cf6nm 한글*
@@IAmNot-Everywhere- ahhh ty!
Keep teaching sir
I have three notebooks (all of them have lined paper): One for taking (messy) notes while I watch your videos :), one for neat and beautiful grammar notes (with different colors and everything) and one for vocabulary. In this one I split every single page in 4 parts, in which I write the words in Korean, English, German and French and highlight the most Important (or the ones I think will be quite useful) ones.
when billy always on time. i'm currently looking for some notebooks here now.😂😁
Hey , GoBilly I have started your 90 minute Hangul lesson and I have one notebook at the moment but my only focus is learning how to read since I have quite a good grasp of vocabulary and I need to work on my grammar! I have found your lessons highly useful and very educational!감사합니다 😊
Delores Kelly I would take notes while watching the 90 minute video and then continue to review them until I learnt them!😊🤗
How's your Korean now?
@@annamariereverie2920 it’s getting better I can read Korean and write certain things with the proper grammar but sentence structure is still kinda hard I can also pronounce things and speak but it’s real jumbled right now. Thanks for checking in!
I have a few books
-for the units from my textbooks
-TTMIK workbooks for my lessons
-Vocabulary book for my k-drama/RUclips videos etc
-I transfer that vocabulary into another book where the words are explained more in-depth with sentences so I know how to use that word eg: (딱딱하다 vs 힘들다 (to be hard. since both have difference usages I use the book so I can understand)
-I log my language learning in my bullet journal
I colour squares according to
If I did -Grammar/Reading/Speaking/Listening
My journal is fully in Korean so it helps me practice as well.
Well, I have 2 notebooks. One for my main notes and important things to remember, and one for writing practice. I write down how to write certain vowels or consonants with the stroke orders. Then when I’m done with that I repeat writing that letter for about a third of a page of A5 paper, with the stroke order above my writing. I find it very handy to make sure I know how to write the letters and drill them in my head.
Hi, idk if it can help but there are also a lot of apps to learn stroke order and writing. I think you should try some, I found them really helpful ^-^
You motivated me again to study Korean. I’ve been trying to find a method since last year but I’ve always been insecure. Last year I bought your book bit I wasn’t sure how to use it well. So I decided to try with your book again
I think I’ll follow only your book to start studying Korean I can’t have many resources to focus on.
I hadn't even considered using a study notebook until I watched this, and considering that my memory isn't good, this is *definitely* something I need!
this is perfect !!! ive been needing this! 감사합니다!!!!
I'm so glad many people study Korean hard! Cool! I'll cheer you on! Thank you for the good video. ♥️ 정말 감사합니다 모두 화이팅!!! 😍🌷
I have needed this video since I started my study notebook 2 years ago, thanks!!
thanks for the tips! after exams have finished i'm going to get back onto studying korean, so i found this really useful. If there's any tip that i have when learning korean, it's to use squared paper, it really helps to keep things neat, as well as to help with korean characters!
Much as I want to learn the language quickly it’s not easy , but your videos are very encouraging and enjoyable :) - you help make learning fun and help me take it easy and not take extra pressure, thank you 🙏🏼
Hello billy! Thank you for teaching us. I am now motivated to learn more 한글.
I tend to find that if you have notes on your notes, writing them in a different colour helps differentiate and partition your notebook.
Writing colour codes:
Black: description; the original notes
Blue: examples (in Korean)
Red: new thoughts and review
Highlighting colour codes:
Yellow: highlighting topic
Pink: highlighting difficulty or lack of understanding
Green: new vocabulary
I hope this helped add a layer!
By the way, writing notes on your notes is super helpful for working your way through new concepts and also thinking beyond original thoughts. This is great practice also in other areas of studies. Thanks for the great content as usual Billy :)
Thank you so much! Your notes are really helpful!
This is awesome and I just recently brainstormed my own thoughts on this. I actually am using three notebooks. Grammar notebook, vocabulary notebook, and workbook. Grammar is organized by grammar concept. Vocabulary is organized into categories. Workbook is organized by date, and combines the new grammar and vocabulary I have learned. Occasionally there is some overlap, but in the quest of learning a new language, sometimes you have to let yourself get carried away!
That's exactly how i have been studying! I've got loads of differenet colour pens and that really helps. About 3 notebooks and scribbling notes on spare paper when chatting to a Korean friend over the phone (i'm in England) and im going to try to keep a note of the time i study now - that has been my most difficult part being a busy mum and not being able to study as much as i want to :-( But thanks for more advice Billy!!
The video I have been waiting for so long. 감사합니다 빌리선생님. ♥
all I understood was 감사합니다 I'm still learning
@@marixa6452 oh, keep going! That's not bad! Very very late reply, u probably speak Korean now lmao
I've tried lots of different methods, but in the end it is google docs all the way for me. I love being able to search it for the info I need and edit it freely. Copy and paste is also really helpful since I do most of my studying with online materials. And I can easily share my notes with others, and access it from anywhere, on any device. For sample sentences, I "sentence mine" and put them in anki. Anki repeats them for me and I read them quickly and press good if I understand it, but the real benefit is that when I want to look up sentences using specific grammar, I can find them easily (since all sentences contain many different grammar points, the search feature allows me to find all the sentences I want, not just the one I saved because of one of the specific grammar points in uses). Vocab goes in anki too.
skitt42 you are brilliant. Please share with me.
I agree 100%! My method is that I sort all new vocab into diff categories on google spreadsheets -> copy paste the info onto sorted Anki decks with additional details + audio examples from forvo or some other site so I can take advantage of spaced repetition. When studying/reviewing decks I practice writing down sentences with each flash card's vocab to ensure I am able to use what I'm learning.
I ALWAYS come back to you Billie. I hope we can meet in Seoul next year. You're my favourite teacher!!!
I have a book. first page are the alphabet and object, subject particles ect. The rest are nouns adverb and so on. love it! Was going to have a second book but wasn't sure.. but now i know thanks 🙂
Wow your tips are so useful!!!
I can't watch right now but THANK YOU. I'm about to start a new notebook and have been at a liss as to organization. Cheers!
Implementing this asap study log and table of contents wow that amazing way to track also I use flip app to track my study time
I do use two notebooks actually - one for writing stuff while studying and the other as main notes. I use Lingodeer and write according to those lesson headings and tips. Although there are flaws - if i want to find something it's not very easy.
this is so useful thank you billy!!!!!!!!
안녕하세요. Billy I wish I found this video sooner. This is going to help me so much with the Korean language. 감사합니다.
Can you please do a vids like these its so much fun to watch and it helps me a lot in my Korean journey
I found out that for me it's a relief that I found a Korean friend who can speak English extremely good. We call at least one time a week to study Korean and have a little casual talk in English. And woah that really helps me remembering stuff. I'm so glad that he offered me to help me with Korean.
Great tips!!
That's very useful !! Thanks !!!
I have two notebooks, there is a main one and the other one is for practicing. The main one looks pretty, I use black for writing and red for decorating(so I don't get too bored) and underlining important stuff, the other one, I don't put too much into it, I just make myself some tests and just practice in it. Thanks for the video btw~
Having 2 notebooks is really important when studying a language. I use the other one to rewrite words and sentences without needing to look at the other notebook to see it is written, that way I remember it correctly
I have a color-coded notebook that I use for vocabulary, but what I do is I write the new word in hangul, then I draw a picture of an English word or something to help me remember it. For example, the word "문" sounds like "moon," so I would draw a picture of the moon in red, then a picture of the definition (door) in blue. I then study those new words/pictures every few days or so. It can work for new grammar concepts too, but it's more difficult to come up with English words to match those haha
If you don't take your 약, you will be "weak" (약하다)
If you drink too much 소주, your head will "spin around" and you cannot find your 주소 (address)
If your "blood" (피) is "gone" (곤) of course you're going to be tired (피곤하다)
"Yo, Lisa" (요 리 사) cook me some food!
I have a whole page of these, except they just get dumber, but they work for me.
I just have a big binder and for each lesson (I use TTMIK and on level 3 rn) I take a piece of paper and use a different one color for each lesson and put them in the binder when I’m done
Wow thanks I’m gonna start doing that too ☺️🙏
So I had a notebook and papers for my Korean 101 & 102 classes, but I knew I needed a more neat and organized version to study with (and in case someone wanted to use it). I'm glad to know that things like a table of contents and two notebooks are things that you use as well.
For my stuff, I'm doing it by level. Alphabet, pronunciation rules, numbers, etc. But the reading out loud tip is definitely helpful since i don't have anyone to work on my speaking skills.
If you don't mind me asking...where do you live that you have Korean 101 & 102 offered? I live in NC and UNC-Chapel Hill offers a degree in Korean but classes are thousands of dollars apiece. (I already have a degree so it would actually be more expensive to take these classes as "stand alone" personal enrichment classes)
@@468strings7 Its a 2 year institution in Maryland (Montgomery College). Definitely cheaper, however there's only 100 level at the moment. Hopefully the school will get 200 level by next year.
I'm happy to find this video. I'm learning Korean not only because of kpop but because I'm bilingual and I personally love learning new languages and I found Korean very interesting. I'm glad that you made this video because I honestly didn't know how to study.
I've used to study through TTMIK untill the end of the grammar level lessons, so I had a notebook to study the grammar lessons, another one for vocabulary (words I find in dramas, variety shows or RUclips videos) and the third for any other random study: dictation lessons, lyrics translations, diary, etc...
Great tips GoBilly! I really like the idea of a 2nd notebook. I also use ATracker app to track my study time, it is really cool when you see it all in pie graph.
When i first started to learn English, vocabulary helped me more, as a beginner than grammar, since I could tell individually what each word meant I could understand the overall of a sentence, and then Google the grammar points I didn't know.
With Korean is impossible, because the words aren't as separated as it is in English, for a beginner is quite hard to tell what is a verb ending or something to do with grammar or only vocabulary, since everything is attached. But once you have a grammar basis, even if you don't have much vocabulary, you can tell whats happening. Like this is subject that happened somewhere and this is something to add characteristics to the subject, even not knowing much words, you can figure it out.
It was kinda hard to me, since I've tried to apply the same method I used learning English before (and studying grammar is boring ) with Korean.
I was months studying grammar to get a grasp of what's really happening in a simple text. Korean is harder than I thought but is getting easier. Its interesting comparing the process of learn these two languages, are very different from each other. What was harder in English seems to be easier in korean, like, listening. I could finally understand what I heard in English after a hell of time, I was subtitle dependent for a long time, even knowing every single world they spoke. With Korean is the opposite. Even not being very good at it yet, the little I know, I can identify easily. I think the way they speak is less complicated.
Its fun learning languages. I do it for fun, as crazy as it sounds.
For example for vocabulary, first I choose a subject. Then search in RUclips and take notes. I watch several videos and go to websites to gather as many vocabulary as I can and I write them. I review when I'm on bus or metro. Also I write idioms and proverbs and gather them. Also for memorising vocabulary effectively, I write them on sticky notes and attach them to the wall ^^
This was sooo helpful! I'm studying for TOPIK and was feeling kinda lost, but this helped me review my approach :)
I hope you get a good score!
@@Jay-kl5jw Thank you! :)
Thank You
Thank you 💜
Great video Billy. I won't lie though, when you said a notebook for your notebook I was like..uh what? I think I will try these methods to see if it helps with my long-term memory. Later!
For me I have kinda three books one for paragraphs and songs(reading practice) and another for vocabularies and words and the other for classes and tests😁❤that's what I have been doing since 6 months
1000th like 😉
These vids are very useful too thanks!
I'm actually a weirdo , I have different notebooks for different topics and different notebooks for every other RUclips channel from which I take notes 😂😂😎💜
Purple you Billie , you helped me a lot 💜
I'm starting to practice Korean through a notebook. I'm thinking of writing each lesson I learn from Duolingo. And thank you so much billy for your secret of using a 2nd notebook, it will be able to make my original notebook more clean and orderly.
Is that Tzuyu on your profile?
네
You are amazing
정말 너무 감사합니다
Using Anki takes care of all the notebook tricks mentioned.. in a less messy way ;)
I already have 2 notebooks before watchin this:0,i used one ffor writing literally everything I learn,and the 2nd one for review or phrases
I have a notebook where I spam (basically write everything) all my random knowledge of Korean in there.
It's great for revising on what you've learned and helps drill the info in your brain.
I am HORRIBLE at studying. I was literally an adult before I figured out I actually dont even know HOW to "study" (my piano teacher wouod get mad at me cause I "played" he piano I didnt "practice" and it took a long time to figure out what she meant and then to clue in I was doing that with everything...!!). It is really really hard for me to focus even though I love learning amd even if Im learning a favourite subject.... and the fact I dont know how to study makes it all even harder. So thank you for the tips! There are some new ideas for me here Im going to start using to see if it works for me. *determined*
I’m horrible at studying too . Part of the reason why I didn’t complete college beyond two years . Would like to finish one day but not possible currently .
I have several different colored pens. My title is one color. Body text is another color. Words in the other language is in another color. Additional important notes are in another color. I don't currently use highlighters, but I am considering it.
감삼합니다!!
I do all of those things that's great
I have 3 notebooks for my Korean learning 😂
1. I use for grammar/pdfs
2. Is my Korean workbook where I wrote my own sentences based on what I've learned from pdfs
3. My korean vocabulary notebook
❤
i do it by chapter then write down anything that’s important or i’ll forget then every once a while i go back a write down again grammar points that i’m not that strong on
before I saw ur vid. I also used already 2 notebooks. one a decent & the other is just for practicing
Should I structure my learning notebook with a table of contents and everytime I learn something from a category I put it there ?
Hi Billy, I have been learning Korean for over 2 months now, and i just realised that I need a notebook to keep track of things and help remember them. I planned on structuring it in a textbook form with a table of contents and example sentences and pronunciation guides. But with what you said about needing two notebooks.... I only have one for Korean, and my second one is for Mandarin which I just started learning. Do I have to have two notebooks for each language ?
Cause I already planned on getting other books when these one run out
Yeah learning korean language is fun
I have my notes with what we're doing in class, then a notebook where i write down all the grammar and another notebook where i do exercises. i ALSO have a litten vocabulary booklet where i write down the vocabs from our textbook and other vocabs my teacher uses. when specifially learning vocabs, i write them down on an extra sheet, usually chapter-wise because this is how we are told to learn them for the next lesson. sometimes theme wise like honorific forms of words. (extra note to vocabs: super new and unusual for me to do because i never really learned vocabulary ever in school). and when it's around exam time, i make like an extra sheet with everything we learned/everything necessry to know for the exam.
not really sure about markers, i haven't found a good system yet.
but sir, may i ask why half of your neck is orange/yellow-ish and the other half is white ? 😳
This is what I am looking for.
Hi teacher 👋👋 🤗
I have three notebooks. The first one for my lesson notes, the second one for song lyrics and K-Dramas notes, and my third one is where I track my progress.
Also a quick question; Digital notebooks or paper notebooks? Which one is better?
Whichever you feel like :) I like the feel of paper, but you might prefer digital.
billy: Have notes for your notes
me: having one notebook for science biology chemistry and history
I soo needed this! Little by little I’m learning Hangul. I need a little more practice, but I barely started this week. However, I’m struggling in knowing what to do after I learn the basic alphabet or Hangul. Do I learn the structures of sentences? Someone help.

Pls continue making busan videos it would really help. Thx🤪🤗😊
Thankyou. i always reviewing my books hahaha
there was this one time i was at a resturant in america and the waitress said "do you need a refill?" and i just started panicking because i did not know so im just like "아뇨" and she just started refilling my drink ㅎㅎㅎ
I made 2 notebooks too 😁
모든 것을 같은 공책에 쓰여있어요.
* 수업때, 책을 읽때나 다른 방법으로 새로운 일게 되는 단어를 종이 1한장에 써요.
* 그다음에 제가 하나씩하나씩 새 단어를 배우기를 위해서 문장을 4-5개 만들어요.
* 끝나면 동료, 선생님, 친구한테 공책을 주고 그 사람이 이상하거나 어색한 문장을 고쳐요.
* 제가 잘 사용했다면, 그리고 수정한 사람은 제가 단어 무슨 뜻인지를 알다고 생각하면 플래시카드를 만들어요. 하지만 단어만 써요. 거기에 의미하고 영어가 안 쓰여있어요.
* 단어를 복습하려고 다른 사람과 알아맞혀보는, 설명하는 게임해요. 가끔 제가 설명하는데 다른 시간에 만나는 사람이 단어가 뭐인지를 설명해봐요.
* 제가 잘하면 제가 함께 하는 사람이 카드에 별을 그려요. 총 별 5-10개를 받으면 카드를 빼요.
* 또는 알아맞힐 수 없거나 잘 설명할 수 없어도 한번 더 해봐도 괜찮지만 그 단어가 있는 문장을 몇번 만들고 말해야해요. 그 경우에도 별을 받을 수 있어요.
That's what I'm doing at the beginning of my study in 한글
I'm unsure how to start this thing
My tip: before taking notes, read the class pdf or watch the video class and then take notes, according to what you understand.
Ok but answer this what do you put in a Korean study book??
Me loving how keeka stabing billy lol just kidding thanks to Billy i effectebly learn hangul gamsahamnida
Hahaaa pray for me😄😄😄i'm just strated to learn that alphabet
I use flash cards to learn vocabulary. And apps.
Casually watching this video while eating dinner :D
hmm
❤❤
Whole milk,how to drink milk 🤣 I have no idea why I find that funny

I mean if you work with a textbook then might as well just look into that when reviewing, it’s less work
Hey can you please tell me what does 가세요 mean? (Saw it in the video)
It can mean many things depending on the context. It could be from 가다 "to go" and mean "go."
