Winter 2024 - My review is going to be pretty similar to what I had for Korean 1A: I decided for my reviews now I will justify my numbers for the review: Easiness: 5 - Not that difficult, just put in the work and you should be fine, you should brush up on your Korean 1A stuff. If you genuinely want to learn the language it should be fine. Clarity: 5 - She is really good at explaining the rules for conjugations. Workload - 5: Not much workload, same thing as KOREAN 1A Helpfulness - 5: Super helpful, holds office hours, answers questions very willingly and was willing to hold appointments. About the Prof: Professor Choi is one of the nicest professors I've had at UCLA. She is really fun to be in class with and really makes you want to learn korean. 100% recommend. Class: The class has the same layout as Korean 1A except different content obviously. Near the end there is alot of conjugations that might seem like alot at first but I recommend dividing it up into categories and remembering it that way and doing anki cards throughout the quarter so that you don't have to study for the final. Despite this, this class was not much work and just fun.
