Korean

In semester 2, some of our Korean modules will follow the blended learning approach (half face-to-face in the classroom at Penrhyn Road and half by virtual online classes via MS Teams), whilst others will be delivered fully online. Please check individual modules for details.

At the end of each semester long module, there will be two assessments: Reading & Writing and an Oral Assessment.

Please note: KLS assessments cannot be re-scheduled.

Please also note: a minimum of 10 students is required in order for a course to run. Should any course not recruit enough students, it will be cancelled.
