Can’t remember grammar structures?

Remembering Korean grammar structures can sometimes be impossible for me. I don't have that many natives to practice my Korean and the textbook we use in class constantly teaches new grammar structures without reminding me to review the previous ones. I always try to write my own example sentences which are corrected by natives when…

스토리타임? my method

It definitely took some time but hope that my plan will pay off in the end. Basically I listened to the video 3 times. I listened without looking at the subtitles,which is surprisingly hard but if you try your best to just look at the person's face or just close your eyes and listen,it makes…

I might not be the first person who discovered it,but I have found an useful site for me.It is the 한구어 맞춤법 감사하기. As a non-native English speaker I make lots of mistakes and I am not talking about the usual grammar mistakes I am talking about spelling.Even when I am writing an essay in…

What motivates me to work hard?

A deadline. 19.11.2016 I finally have a deadline to look forward to.I'll be taking my first ever TOPIK exam and I am quite nervous for it. Some time ago I have decided to take the upcoming TOPIK exam partially because my Korean teacher convinced us to do it using a really tempting reward - everyone who…

Korean Speech Contest

A few days ago our university organized a Korean Speech Contest in partnership with universities from Bulgaria&Hungary. Even though everyone could participate we thought that as first year students our level would be too low,so we quietly just stood there as spectators.The gifted classmates from our class made a dancing&singing performance at the end but that…
