- Where am I now?
I am in the Beginner 0 stage for all areas of Korean. I know literally no Korean speaking nor writing. I do however know some Mandarin, which I’ve heard has some similar words to Korean.
- Goal
My goal is to learn basic Korean phrases so that I can hold an introductory conversation. Some of these things would include greetings and asking questions regarding hobbies, family, directions, and school. For now, since I only have a semester to learn as much as I can, I am planning to focus on interpersonal and speaking skills. This way, if I was to go to Korea, I would be able to get around. Throughout the process I plan to keep artifacts to supplement the learning.
- Meeting Goals
In order to meet my goal I really plan to devote outside time to using resources such as Mango and Rosetta Stone. This way, I will be able to use my language partner to converse with and ask questions. Besides this, I will supplement my learning by using media such as music and movies. I plan to watch movies with purely Korean subtitles so that I am exposed to the speaking aspect and can focus on reading as well. I also plan to incorporate things I learn from 105 to supplement my learning.
