Language Lessons

In Daegu, you can take Korean language classes in a relaxed atmosphere at a language school for 2-12 weeks. You can choose between 2 or 4 lessons per week, each lasting 90 minutes. Classes are available at levels ranging from beginner to upper-intermediate. Additionally, daily Korean-English language exchange sessions with Koreans are offered at no extra cost.
Description

The Korean Language Course

Our partner language school in Daegu is located in the very city center, within walking distance of the shared apartments for our participants. Classes take place in modern, attractively designed classrooms. The teaching methods are innovative, including the use of K-dramas in lessons, which not only helps teach the language but also provides insights into Korean culture and pop culture.

The focus of the lessons is on conversation, with reading and writing also included. Participants can choose the intensity of the classes: either twice or four times per week, with each session lasting 90 minutes.

Classes are conducted in small groups at various levels, from beginner to upper-intermediate. Participants who already have some knowledge of Korean and wish to start at a higher level must complete a placement test before starting the course. On the first day, their listening and speaking skills are also assessed to ensure they are placed in the right group.

In addition to the formal classes, the school offers daily Korean-English language exchange sessions at no extra cost. These sessions are held both in the morning and evening, lasting 2 hours each. During these exchanges, participants teach Koreans English and, in return, practice their Korean conversation skills.
