Korean 2 course (A1- → A1-)
In this advanced course, you will continue to develop basic knowledge of the Korean language and culture and build a solid foundation in Korean step by step.
About the Korean 2 course
Do you already have some basic knowledge of Korean and want to improve your skills? In this course, you’ll build on what you’ve already learned, whether in our Korean 1 course or through other means. You’ll learn to use basic grammar, various verb forms, and different levels of speech. Because language and culture are closely intertwined, the course doesn’t focus solely on the linguistic aspects. You’ll also learn what is culturally appropriate in different situations.
In 9 Korean lessons:
- ask yourself about your destination and purpose;
- you use different verb forms;
- conjugate verbs and apply basic grammar;
- provides detailed directions.
In the Korean 2 course, you will work toward language level A1-. By the end of this course, you will be able to hold conversations at a higher level.

A language course is an investment in yourself. In your self-confidence. In your future in the Netherlands or beyond. That’s why we at Babel work with you to figure out the costs. You don’t always have to pay for a course yourself. Sometimes DUO helps out. Sometimes your employer does. And sometimes you get a discount. Find out what’s possible for you.

Approach
In the Korean 2 course, the teacher guides you step by step through the teaching method. The teacher explains vocabulary and grammar and supports the lessons with additional examples. We expect you to complete the assignments in the workbook and actively work on learning vocabulary. Vocabulary tests will be administered during the course to support your progress.
The focus in this course is on speaking skills, but listening, reading and writing are also covered extensively. You will practice individually, in pairs and in groups, in a safe learning environment where you will learn to use Korean with confidence. In the course we use audiovisual material and additional activities, so that you learn the language in an interactive and playful way.
Teaching Materials
You will work with the text and workbook ‘Sogang Korean 1A (3rd Edition)’. For self-study you will receive assignments and teaching materials that will help you to continue practicing at home, these assignments will be discussed during the meetings. Before the start of the course we will inform you how you can easily order the teaching materials so that you can start your lesson well prepared.
Teachers
You will be taught by an experienced teacher who will guide you step by step as you learn the Korean language. You will receive regular, targeted feedback on your language usage so that you learn to communicate with increasing confidence and fluency.

What our students say
4.8/5 op basis van 120 reviews
Amber Witkamp
Through bespoke training, we bridge the gap between language and
collaboration. We help staff to attend meetings with confidence, give feedback, use industry jargon and join in the banter by the coffee machine. Because collaboration starts with understanding one another.
Pamela Žák
For me, there is nothing more fulfilling than making a real connection with someone in their native language. As Nelson Mandela famously said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart”. And if I can play just a small part in helping you get there, then my day is made!

My lessons are all about the students. What do they want to learn? What do they need to achieve their goals? I believe it’s important to combine hard work with fun. A lesson without laughter is a lesson not learnt!
Marloes Spook
I find it really special to meet people from different cultures and help them find their way with the Dutch language.

We don’t sell language courses. We sell confidence for your employees!
