These two classes are the same level with the same content. This level is designed for students who have never studied the Korean language. Students will acquire knowledge of the Korean Alphabet, "Hangeul", the phonological characteristics, vocabulary and basic expressions. Students will also be introduced to various aspects of Korean culture.
Basic A (2 Classes: Basic A-1 & Basic A-2)
These two classes are the same level with the same content. Introduction to the basic skills of speaking, reading, writing and listening with attention to selected aspects of Korean culture; designed for students who have basic Korean reading skills but with little language training. It is a continuation of our Introductory Korean and will continue to focus on spoken Korean at the novice mid level, with an emphasis on its linguistic and cultural characteristics.
Basic B
Our Basic B class is a continuation of our Basic A class. Newcomers who pass the Proficiency Examination for this level are also eligible to take this course. This class introduces a higher level of basic grammar, vocabulary and language structure, which allow the students to be more confident in speaking and writing Korean so they can easily become familiar with the language through the exercise of sentence patterns. This class covers most of the elements of teaching with impartiality to teach the language in both accuracy and fluency. Especially, this class emphasizes the improvement of conversation skills and the ability to manage the given situations through interactive activities.
Intermediate A
