See all- Glenview Saturday Korean-English Free Conversation Table (NEW location!)Joy Grill, Glenview, IL
Let’s meet for a language exchange! How it works:
We meet at our new location at Joy Grill (1702 Milwaukee Ave, Glenview) for conversation practice. After brief introductions, we will alternate between 15 minutes of English and 15 minutes of Korean (up to 90 minutes). For those who are new to Korean, we have a separate group that focuses on Korean vocab and basic grammar.
Since space is limited, please RSVP ASAP. We have Conversation Table in-person at Glenview every Saturday afternoon.
Also, we highly recommend that you bring a notebook with you to jot down new vocabulary words that you learn during conversation (you should then try to master those words as you will use many of the same words over and over again in real-life conversation!).
For more information about our group (we also have dinner parties, K-drama discussions, karaoke, etc.), visit us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/koreanconversationtable/ and at our website at www.koreanconversationtable.org

- Friday K-drama Discussion via Zoom: 광장 (Mercy for None)Link visible for attendees
Join us online for our monthly K-drama discussion! We meet via Zoom (Zoom link provided upon RSVP). After brief introductions, we will have discussion questions on a K-drama with an opportunity to learn more about Korean culture as well as share our feelings about characters and plot points!
This month we will be discussing 광장 (Mercy for None). IMPORTANT: Please DM us for this month's Zoom link and passcode!
All discussions are in English (so great practice for our English learners!) Because we are on-line, we often have participants from Korea and other countries joining us in their respective time zones. We have K-drama discussions on the fourth Friday of every month!
