The Korea Society - Language Classes
 
Emphasizing speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills, the language program’s balanced and thorough approach instills in the student a greater understanding and appreciation for Korean culture. Korean language courses extend over a semester of twelve sessions. Instructors are experienced Korean language teachers with university affiliations.
Class size is limited to allow more interaction with the instructor and other students. Classes are offered throughout the year in five sequential levels from basic to advanced.
Winter Session January 23-April 13, 2012 All levels meet once a week. A detailed schedule, including class dates and meeting times, will be posted on The Korea Society's Web site in early August. Registration for the Fall session will begin at that time.
