This course is a practicum where non-native advanced students or native speakers of Korean are assigned to work with one of the faculty/graduate students and assist in teaching beginning or intermediate Korean by hosting conversation tables outside of class.

In this course, students will learn advanced level Korean through Korean literature. Students will achieve deeper understanding of Korean culture and society through a lens of literature. Students will read the various genres of literature texts, write reflection journals, and discuss about them in class. Assignments will include creative writing and literary translation. Academic reading and writing skills will be the forefront learning goal; however, formal speaking and listening will be emphasized as well.

This course aims at the acquisition of language skills to read, write, listen, and speak in intermediate-level Korean. It is designed for students who have taken Intermediate Korean I (Asian-St 297B at UMass, KOR 201 at Smith, or Asian ST 262 at MHC) or proven to be at the equivalent level by the placement test. In addition to the textbook study in the classroom, audio-visual materials and class activities are employed by the instructor.

This course is the second part of the Beginning Korean sequence, which is designed to teach the fundamental skills to read, write, listen and speak in elementary level Korean. Prior to taking this course, students are expected to read Hangul and to be able to talk about simple daily activities and carry a limited conversation with memorized phrases. Compared to the first semester, more advanced vocabulary and grammar patterns will be introduced, and the students will learn how to integrate them into developed forms of application.
