Pai Chai University Korean Language Institute

At Pai Chai University's Korean Language Institute in Seo-gu, the progression from beginner to advanced changes the kinds of tasks students tackle. The first two levels start with Hangul. Beginners learn how Korean vowels and consonants fit together and build short sentences they can use outside class. Intermediate work turns to longer exchanges, including making a phone call, shopping and using a bank. At advanced levels students write and discuss issues such as politics and the economy.

Korean courses on the Daejeon campus

The institute lists six levels of regular Korean and a separate special class for the Test of Proficiency in Korean, or TOPIK. Students looking for general language development can follow the level sequence. Those working toward an exam can look specifically at the preparation class and how it fits with their regular lessons.

Pai Chai also describes a campus course for international students and local foreign residents who cannot attend the daytime programme. Its beginner and intermediate teaching gives residents a different entry point from full-time study. The institute gives its location as A518 on the university campus at 155-40 Baejae-ro.
