I've decided to go back to the drawing board where Korean is concerned. I'll finish out my sessions with the teacher and stop taking classes to sound more natural since I'm beginning to get confused. Also I won't be studying for a test. I've become disembodied and feel like nothing is entering my brain. So I've decided to go back to studying my Korean books, specifically "I love Korean" books. They are made by Seoul National University. I have the whole series so I'm reviewing book 1 so that I can get the vocabulary (I've already worked through it before as well as half of book 2) then moving on until book 6 which is the last one in the series.
From Goodreads:
"The I Love Korean Series is designed to expedite Korean language learning with a 60-hour program. Our practical activities will help learners to speak, listen, read, and write Korean faster. I Love Korean 1 is a textbook for learners who have no knowledge of Korean at all. There is a dedicated section covering how to read and write Hangul, the Korean alphabet. Each unit of this learning book provides useful vocabulary, grammar, and key expressions used in everyday life. This book is ideal
Having studied our I Love Korean Series , you will be able to communicate with your Korean friends! *The audio files are available at the SNU Language Education Institute or SNU Press web page*"When and if I register for the TOPIK I'll study with the plan I put together for this purpose. Right now I need to focus on getting more vocabulary and a better reading experience as well as add to my grammar studies. I find books with themes are better for this. TOPIK practice books are not conducive to the kind of study on my mind.
