Prof: Steven Gagnon / Fall 2025

The professor and TAs are very nice. The course is fairly easy, and you will get help if you ask for it! It is very exam-heavy; however, the exams are not that hard as long as you study! They give study guides and prepare you well. It can be time-consuming, as there are usually two homework assignments and two vocabulary quizzes due every week; however, they are usually easy and do not take long. Overall, I would definitely recommend! Just make sure you have good attendance and do ok on exams (exams are worth about 40% of the final grade), and you will be perfectly fine.
It is an introductory class to Korean, so it is mostly vocabulary, alphabet, and sentence structure. You also practice speaking a lot.
The professor is amazing and easy to talk to. The professor and the TA's want you to succeed!
Just come with an open mind and make sure to keep on top of your attendance and homework!
