Korean Language Level

AY2016/2017 Semester 2

Any student who has successfully passed the Level 2 course (or its equivalent) is eligible for this course. This course aims to expand students language skills by introducing more complex sentence structures, colloquial expressions and language use in different cultural contexts. Students are introduced to the more stylistic intricacies of the language as idioms and metaphors are integrated into the syllabus. Classroom tasks in this course naturally demand a higher level of participation and hence incorporate learning through the use of audio-visual materials and class discussion. During the course, students are expected to use little or no English as the course is mainly taught in Korean. By the end of the course, students should be able to read, speak, write and understand written documents on varied topics in different forms. This course gives students practice in the skills required for TOPIK, a standardized Korean language test.
