The Department of Korean Language Education (headed by Professor Kim Eun Ho) will hold a special lecture titled “Writing Lesson Plans for Korean Grammar Classes - Theory and Practice” on August 17^th (Sun) and August 30^th (Sat), over two sessions. This special lecture is open to current students, alumni, and prospective students of our university, and participation is available after prior registration. Applications and further details can be found on the department’s homepage.

The Department of Korean Language Education offers a variety of special lectures to strengthen the practical teaching competencies of both prospective and current Korean language teachers. In particular, this lecture will be led by teacher Kang Gui Rye, who has extensive field experience and is currently teaching at the Korean Language Institute of Korea Polytechnic University. In this session, she will provide practice-oriented instruction along with demonstration-based training.

“Lesson plan writing” is an essential skill for designing and conducting Korean language classes, and the Department of Korean Language Education organizes special lectures on this theme every semester. Although the topic remains the same, different lecturers are invited each time, allowing participants to encounter diverse instructional design methods and real-life examples.

Meanwhile, the Department of Korean Language Education offers courses that qualify students to obtain the Level 2 Korean Language Teacher Certificate (authorized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) and the Level 2 Multicultural Society Specialist Certificate (issued by the Ministry of Justice). These programs prepare graduates to work either domestically or internationally as Korean language teachers or multicultural society specialists. In particular, through practice-based training, lesson plan writing, and class management experience, students develop the practical skills needed in actual teaching environments.

Upon graduation, career paths include serving as instructors at domestic and overseas universities or university-affiliated Korean language institutions, Korean language teachers at institutions running the Ministry of Justice’s Social Integration Program, KOICA volunteers under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Korean language instructors at migrant support centers, and dispatched Korean language teachers at King Sejong Institute Foundation branches abroad. Relevant certifications include the Level 2 Korean Language Teacher Certificate (national license) and the Level 2 Multicultural Society Specialist Certificate (issued by the Ministry of Justice, awarded under the university president’s name).
