EALC 1314 Accelerated Elementary Korean

This is an accelerated course designed for those who have received significant exposure to Korean language and culture and thus have some listening and speaking skills, but haven't had sufficient opportunity to develop their knowledge of basic reading, writing, and grammar. The course will cover important grammatical structures covered in Elementary Korean I & II for the purpose of providing tools to build upon the existing level of each student's Korean language ability.
