Elementary Korean

Course Description

Contemporary Korean: speaking, reading, and writing. Course involves directed self-instructional approach in the Critical Languages Center. Students are required to study the textbook and practice with assigned audio visual materials (CDs, DVDs, or computer files). Students have practice sessions three hours per week with a "language trainer" who is a native/near native/superior-level speaker of the language. Not repeatable without permission of the CLC director. Offered each semester. This is a SUPERVISED-SELF-STUDY class. The language "trainer" will help students develop their communicative ability during class meetings. During the sessions students will actively participate in practicing spoken language to acquire better pronunciation and conversation skills. English use will be kept to a minimum in class. Language trainers will monitor active participation throughout the semester by use of the STUDENT PERFORMANCE SHEET reports which will be sent to the director of the CLC. Regular class attendance and participation is required. The CLC classes are self-instructional and are best suited for highly motivated and disciplined students.
