- Reflect upon your progress to date, consider the effectiveness of your learning plan and activities, and discuss what changes--if any--you will make to finish the semester.
At first, learning Korean seemed like a mad rush of learning random words and grammatical structures, and whenever I started to feel comfortable with a topic I would discover that what I had learned was only applicable in a certain situation and that I would need to learn a couple different structures to use based on factors like the setting, the age, or the social hierarchy. Since then I have started to see the connections more of the connections between words and I feel like I have a basic understanding of the structure and nuance of the Korean language. So far I feel like my learning plan is satisfactory. I have started texting my girlfriend in Korean when I can and have continued to practice speaking with her and watching Korean dramas. At some point I would like to find and learn how to use a small pocket Korean-English Dictionary that would let me look up Hangul characters. As far as meeting with my language partner goes I have really been enjoying the meetings and I think the little competitions she has help motivate me to try harder.
