cultural post-teaching activity

[Xiaoting Sun]

We learned how to say “hello”-“안녕하세요 annyeonghaseo” and “good bye annyeong” as the beginning of teaching. I also taught her how to make a brief self-introduction and something about shopping, because she wants to travel in Korea one day. Except language learning, we talked a lot about the cultural aspects, such as individualism and collectivism, Korean movies, Korean hip-pop culture and Korean economy. Teaching language to someone is different experience that I never experienced before. I need to figure out how to make my pronunciation correctly. This teaching activity is really effective, because now I can have a small conversation with my roommates about shopping and greeting.
