About this book
Pathfinder in Korean (1,2), designed for adults who begin to learn Korean as a foreign language, is featured by its integration of the four language skill areas - listening, speaking, reading, and writing - in balance. Each book consists of three main sections: Activity, Task, and Reading. Activities are forced on communicative practice with grammar features, and Tasks are presented in ways that they get learners to use the grammar items in real-life settings for communication. The Reading section is divided into two parts: General Reading and Take It Easy. The General Reading part exposes learners to a variety of materials to help them get acquainted with different ways of organizing ideas in Korean. The reading of Take It Easy is provided not only for the purpose of developing reading skills but also for getting learners familiarized with Korean culture and Koreans' way of thinking.
