Since it's used to seek agreement, it generally softens your statements or requests.
(compare 韓国語教えてね [seeking agreement, softer] and 韓国語教えてよ [trying to persuade, more firm])
In male speech, which is casual, ね is often changed to な.
This makes your speech more rough and masculine, so be careful when using it.
