About
Korean modules at Warwick are relatively new compared to other languages. The first - Korean Beginners Accelerated (LL2C4) - was introduced in 2021, coinciding with my appointment at Warwick. Since then, I have focused on developing and expanding Korean language offerings, which has been rewarding to see grow. Warwick now offers Korean Beginners Accelerated (LL2C4), Korean 2 (LL2D1), Korean 3 (LL2C5), and Korean 4 (LL2C6); these modules were integrated into the SMLC degree pathway in 2024.
Although I have transitioned my academic focus from Human/Development Geography to language and culture education since joining Warwick, I continue to draw on my research expertise in lived experiences, meaning-making, and the politics of knowledge production to inform my teaching practice.
