Hi, my name is Tatiana, and I'm 19 years old.
I'm currently studying at Kyungbok University on a summer language program.
Classes are held from Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, with four 50-minute classes each day.
There are two main exams during the semester: a midterm and a final exam. The format is the same for both.
Day 1:
Day 2:
The class size is typically around 15 students, coming from diverse countries like Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, the USA, and Europe.
The professor takes the students to two large hypermarkets three times a week: Emart (grocery store) and Daiso (household goods).
Food:
The dormitory houses both international and Korean students, creating a great opportunity to practice the language.
I met my Korean friends on my own, as Koreans are typically shy and unlikely to approach first. So, it's up to you to take the initiative!
I want to thank Inter-K Education Group for their help with my admission process!
