About
Instructor: Elizabeth McClary
Objective: Learners in this class will build on the knowledge acquired in Beginner and Explorer levels. Learners will continue to refine speaking and comprehension abilities in Korean through weekly conversation practice. Continued conversation practice will pertain to daily life and events (present, past, and future), while incorporating new grammar and vocabulary introduced in class. Topical conversations will also be introduced as appropriate. Learners will be guided to continue to practice appropriate use of the polite, honorific and deferential forms of speech. Learners will continue to be introduced to Korean culture and customs through multimedia, cultural interactions, and supplementary materials.
