If you have ever entertained the idea of studying the Korean language, you can get started on this new exciting venture by taking a Memphis Korean class provided by Varsity Tutors. There are many reasons to consider studying the Korean language; the world is growing increasingly more interconnected, which means that more corporations can be found in the international marketplace. For many students, both at the high school and the college level, learning a foreign language is a requirement for graduation. Whether you're a White Station High School student who wants additional help with your studies or you're a University of Memphis senior who wants to learn Korean to enhance your undergraduate business degree, a Memphis Korean course can help you build your command of this unique language.
The Korean language is a widely popular one, with 75 million people claiming it as their native tongue. It can be found across the world - primarily in both North and South Korea - but communities of Korean speakers can be found in Russia, China, and even the United States. Many popular industries have manufacturing in South Korea, which means that the need for learning this language is higher than ever. A Memphis Korean class can help your resume stand out when you begin your job search after graduation.
What are the benefits of taking a Memphis Korean course?
It can be very advantageous to take a Memphis Korean course. Because this language is considered a language isolate and is not associated with any other languages in its lineage, it can be challenging to learn it on your own without help. Furthermore, Korean has its own grammatical rules that are starkly different than English. For instance, while the English language has a set word order to convey a point, Korean is quite different. We typically employ the "subject-verb-object" (SVO) order to communicate, whereas Korean uses the "subject-object-verb" (SOV) format. That means that it may initially seem like their sentences are grammatically incorrect, but with time and practice, you can grow familiar with their communication style.
Korean also uses a completely different style of verb conjugation, too. In many cases, you may not even be able to determine the context of a sentence unless you hear the entire sentence. Even the tense of a sentence (such as past, present, or future) isn't revealed until the very end of it. That isn't the only quirk of this language, either. Sometimes a single, properly conjugated verb can stand alone as an entire sentence. In fact, the subject of a sentence has no bearing on the conjugation. Instead, it depends on who is the target audience and the appropriate level of respect needed. These speech levels dictate the conjugation of a verb, depending on if a formal polite, informal polite, or a casual speech level is required. These key concepts, as well as correct pronunciation, common words and phrases, and even cultural history of Korea, can be learned in a Memphis Korean class.
How can I begin my enrollment in a Memphis Korean course?
Getting started with Memphis Korean class can be a very simple way to enrich yourself with a new language. Because our classes are conducted entirely online in a live virtual platform, there is no need to worry about trying to make a tedious and frustrating commute to a traditional Korean classroom downtown. Furthermore, we run our classes on many different days of the week and even at different times of the day. This means that finding a class that fits your personal schedule can be quite easy!
In a Memphis Korean class, you can ask your instructor questions directly during the class and get prompt answers. As an added bonus, you don't have to limit yourself to just talking to your teacher. You can communicate with your classmates, too, which can make it easier to get the necessary practice to build mastery of the Korean language. If you think you may need extra review with your instructor, you can request additional one-on-one time with them to review the material covered in your Memphis Korean class.
Whether you're a Whitehaven High School senior who wants to get a competitive edge on other college applications, you're a University of Memphis student who wants to travel the world after you graduate, or you simply want to stay on top of your favorite Korean language dramas on television, taking a Memphis Korean class provided by Varsity Tutors can be an incredible gift to yourself.
