Course Syllabus
Abstract
This 2-year course is designed to provide practical skills and knowledge on the vocabulary and grammar of the Korean language to the students who have no background in Korean. The course provides students with the opportunities to develop a sufficient competency in Korean and to use it in a variety of ways to develop their communication skills. The course will focus on four skills: speaking, listening, writing and reading, while also providing them with a deeper understanding of Korean grammar. It is expected that by the end of the course students will obtain B1 level according to CEFR or Level Intermediate 1 (중급 1) of the Kyung Hee University (KHU) Korean Language Test. They are also expected to acquire basic understanding of Korea and its culture.
