I highly recommend professor Im (AKA Mitsunaga.) Class is stress free and way easy, yet I still feel like I've learned a lot. She's super chill and plays Kpop before every lecture. She speaks without an accent in English, yet her Korean pronunciation sounds spot on, too. She takes role and attendance is part of your grade. Same goes for discussions... in fact, you learn just as much in your sections, almost like a second lecture. Expect a vocabulary quiz every lecture starting week 2 or so, but don't worry because they are really easy and always have extra credit problems. Her tests are very straightforward and she pretty much tells you exactly what's going to be on there. Also, expect group/video projects.

Fall 2024 - Professor Ju Hee is an absolutely amazing teacher who cares about each of her students education through the Korean language with great aptitude. I believe if everyone had a professor like her they would not only learn Korean to great mastery but enjoy the process and work that it would take to get to that level. Although there were days that I wasn't feeling the best she consistently noticed and chose not to call on me to participate in the class. If I was brimming with the lesson we just learnt then she knew I was ready to share what I know with the class. If Professor Ju Hee isn't a tenured professor for the Korean language yet, I don't know who else could be.
