Learning the Korean language is very time consuming if you take it as a 5 credit course in college. I have read online that not that many schools in the country actually teaches the Korean language. So I feel very fortunate to be in this class because I am only 14 and not many people in the United States know Korean except a lot of Korean people that come here to learn English and a lot of times get their degrees here.
My strategy is to take a nap everyday when I comeback from class. Because everyday we have a vocabulary test that is 4-9 words everyday. That is kind of exhausting to the average learner like me. I spend about 3 hours every morning just on these words. Today I did pretty bad on my vocabulary test because I
couldn't remember some of the Korean words and the English translation of the words. A lot of times I find myself forgetting the English translation more than the Korean vocabulary words most of the time. But most of the time I usually get a good score on the vocabulary quiz. Also we are learning honorifics in the past tense and the present tense yesterday and today. I love this class.. I feel grateful that I am learning Korean because in South Korea you have take a English test that you get a score on to get a Job in Korea. Something like Toeic....? But I have the advantage of not taking the really hard test but I would be able to take the easier version on the test. "Topik".... I am happy to be a American so I can compete with the community in Korea is business relations if I want too. Thank you for reading my blog and have a nice day.
