After I watched my presentation, most parts of my plan are on the pace and I am satisfied with the progress. The issue deviated most is that we did not have a non-English language environment in class since I am still in the beginning level and my teaching partner need to explain almost everything in English. We have finished learning Korean alphabet in two weeks and I used the methods of recording me and Seonghye reading Hangul to compare, correct my own pronunciation, and imitate her.
I like the idea about the relationship between different languages, and I gain the benefit in my process of learning Korean. Since more than half of the Korean language is made up of borrowings from Chinese, the learning is not so difficult for me personally. Take the word ‘library’ as an example. In Korean it is written as 도서관 and read almost same as 图书馆 in Chinese. After I can use Hangul to read Korean vocabularies, we can keep going to learn daily greeting and basic conversation in specific situation such as to order food in restaurant, to ask direction and to check in in the airport. My learning plan is emphasized on the practical usage of Korean in daily life.
