기술의 발달과 대조언어학, 중장년층의 한국어교육 대해 함께 이야기할 수 있어서 너무 즐거웠습니다! 다음 번에도 재미있는 주제로 얘기 나누고파요☺️ 다시 한번 초대해주셔서 감사합니다!
시간 내 주셔서 감사합니다! 저도 즐거웠습니다!
This is very helpful and validating!
I am a middle-aged student studying Korean for fun and mental acuity and yes, the font could be bigger in the TTMIK textbook :)
I am also an dual English/Chinese speaker, so I follow both English and Chinese teachers of the Korean language because they offer different pathways to understanding - from pronunciation to grammar to cultural norms.
한국어로만 한국어 가르치는 방식에 대해서 너무 공감합니다! 미아쌤 대학교 다니면서 강의도 하시고 컨텐트 만들고 열심히 하시는거 멋있습니다 👍
바쁜 일정 소화하시면서 열심히 하시는 모습 진짜 멋지죠! : )
감사합니다 하민 님! 아직 많이 부족해서 더 열심히 해보려는 중이에요 ㅎㅎㅎ 하민님 콘텐츠 늘 보고 많이 배운답니다🔥
Thank you both for producing this video. Not only is it a good practice for students, but the topic is especially important to me and others. I'm 62 and started learning Korean at about 58 years of age. It hasn't been easy at times. My first teacher talked about my age and it was not in a positive way. Because of it, I nearly quit learning. I'm glad I switched to learning more with TTMIK and other resources. I'm going to start following @mia_korean (was unaware of 선생님의 channel).
By the way, one reasons I'm learning Korean is for brain health. As we age, there is almost always some amount of loss. I'm hoping by learning Korean that I can keep that to the smallest amount possible and have fun learning. I'm so happy to hear there is a teacher who wants to focus on older learners. We need that.
Thank you Cheryl for continuing to learn Korean with us. I know how long you've been studying Korean and I think that's amazing!! Keep it up : )
@@HyunwooSun Hopefully my studies will pay off next year when I go to Korea for the first time. I'm both nervous and excited. While it is more difficult to learn Korean at an older age, every step forward is a victory. Had I had the opportunity to learn when I was a teen (the only languages we were offered as a second language were Spanish (did 5 years of that and did well), French, Italian or German), I might have gotten much further in less time.
I was inspired by TTMIK to begin study, but had issues with books (yes, small fonts😂) but enjoy the video courses, etc. and have many TTMIK books. I now have a patient iTalki tutor. We spend half an hour discussing aspects of culture, food, politics, life in English, then an hour of structured grammar and vocab. I love interacting with a real person, with practice and immediate feedback. He also adjusts the shared screen for my eyes. A tutor keeps me accountable and motivated. Thanks for the recognition of older learners. I am 73 and feel language study has kept my memory sharper. But without TTMIK none of this would have happened. Thank you so much!
Great to hear that you found a tutor that helps you stay motivated!! Keep it up!!
이런 인터뷰 좋은 것 같아요. 재미있는 내용이 많네요. 즐겁게 시청했습니다!!
감사합니다!!
I think that is such a good video. TTMIK is always looking to advance as a company, and to advance past students, and to pick up new students. But the focus is always on keeping language active, and I love that about your company. The company is run by desire to educate first, and financial benefit secondarily. I do hope you continue to do well in the current market and in the future. Personally, as someone who is 60, you would think I would have more free time to sit and learn daily, and read my TTMIK books, But life gets in the way and it’s good to know that I can always go to RUclips or to my set of books to pick up where I left off. I love your interviews on the street and your team. All your long hard work has paid off for so many people like me who can at the very least, pronounce and write using Hangeul. Your company has allowed me to study my writing book consistently for two weeks or three weeks, and then put it down without feeling lost or embarrassed. I cannot wait to start my series of books I bought from your bookstore. I just need to Master Hangeul! First. LOL
Thank you so much for your kind words and for really understanding our main motivation for the business : ) Keep learning and enjoying this language!
선생님으로 일하시는 분들을 존경합니다!! 가르치는 건 대단한 일입니다
진심으로 감사드립니다 선생님들
고생 많으셨습니다!!! 들으면서 즐거운 시간을 보냈어요
항상 시청해 주셔서 정말 감사합니다!
As a teacher in Japan of various levels (2-70 years) this is such a interesting conversation!
As for the struggle between natural acquisition and textbook learning. I prefer the first one for myself, but that is because I am neurodiverse and get bored easily. Comprehensible input is a huge help, as the content always differs and may brain has fun figuring things out.
That said - I also do study with a textbook on the side to understand basic grammar structures and I do enjoy learning about grammar :D
I think that finding a balance is important.
Like mentioned in the discussion, it all comes down to expectations and goals.
Would be interested in a discussion on working with neurodivergent students and how to adjust lessons to them. Or maybe even how to work with not so motivated students (I sometimes have students, that HAVE to study English or German…and as a teacher it is a bit disheartening, when nothing is coming back…even if I put a lot of effort into my lessons)
Thank you so much for watching and for your input! I also think a nice balance between natural acquisition and studying is necessary! : )
미아쌤과 대화! 이것은 귀하군요! 🎉🎉🎉
와우! '요리를 잘하고 싶은 사람에게 밀키트를 주는 것'에 비교해서 언어 교육을 말씀하신 거 너무 공감돼요. 현우 님, 미아 쌤의 대화 잘 봤습니다!
소희 님 감사합니당!!! 소희 님도 언제 한번 초대하고 싶어요 : )
저도 연령대가 좀 있는 학생들이랑 수업을 해서 정말 공감하면서 봤어요 😊 다음 단계를 생각해야 슬럼프를 겪지 않을 수 있다는 말씀도 넘 좋았습니다 👏👏👏 We don’t say 🤣🤣🤣 (말줄임)
선생님도 공감하셨다니 기쁩니다!! 선생님과도 곧 대화 나눌 수 있으면 좋겠습니다 : )
많이 공감하며 봤습니다. 🤗 좋은 영상 감사합니다 ❤
감사해요! 곧 뵐게요 : )
