🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷 # 🇰🇷☕ Korean Starter Club – Apprendre le coréen autrement Bonjour à tous ! 😊 Je m'appelle Sohyeon et je vis actuellement en France. J'enseigne le coréen depuis la période du Covid et, comme beaucoup d'entre vous, j'adore apprendre les langues. Je parle et j'apprends actuellement : 🇫🇷 Français 🇬🇧 Anglais 🇷🇺 Russe 🇨🇳 Chinois 🇯🇵 Japonais En apprenant et en enseignant différentes langues, je me suis souvent posé plusieurs questions : 🤔 Comment apprendre une nouvelle langue lorsqu'on manque de temps ? 🤔 Comment aider les enfants ou les personnes qui ont des difficultés avec la lecture ? 🤔 Comment créer un environnement où l'on peut réellement parler la langue étudiée ? 🤔 Comment gagner en confiance lorsqu'on apprend une langue ? 🤔 Est-il possible d'enseigner uniquement dans la langue cible tout en restant compréhensible pour tous ? --- ✨ C'est à partir de ces réflexions que j'ai créé mon propre programme. Un programme différent de ceux que l'on trouve dans les manuels classiques. L'objectif est simple : 🇰🇷 Apprendre le coréen en utilisant le coréen dès le premier jour. 💬 Comprendre naturellement grâce au contexte, aux images, aux gestes et aux interactions. 🤝 Créer une communauté où chacun peut progresser ensemble. --- # 🌱 Korean Starter Club Ce meetup est un programme d'initiation destiné aux débutants et aux personnes souhaitant reprendre confiance à l'oral. L'objectif est de découvrir une nouvelle façon d'apprendre le coréen, de pratiquer ensemble et de rencontrer d'autres personnes partageant le même intérêt pour la langue et la culture coréennes. 📢 Les possibilités de poursuivre l'apprentissage après ce programme seront présentées directement pendant les meetups. --- # ☕ Tea Time après le cours Après les cours, nous prendrons un moment ensemble autour d'un thé ou d'un café. 🍵 Pratiquer le coréen 💬 Discuter librement 🤝 Faire connaissance 🌍 Rencontrer des personnes partageant les mêmes centres d'intérêt --- # 🎯 Ce meetup est pour vous si... ✅ Vous ne connaissez absolument pas le coréen ✅ Vous avez déjà étudié mais vous manquez de pratique à l'oral ✅ Vous souhaitez apprendre avec d'autres personnes plutôt que seul(e) ✅ Vous êtes un enfant ou un jeune adulte d'origine coréenne né en France ✅ Vous manquez de temps pour suivre des cours traditionnels et faire beaucoup de devoirs ✅ Vous avez besoin de motivation pour apprendre ✅ Vous connaissez un peu la grammaire mais vous n'osez pas parler ✅ Vous aimeriez comprendre progressivement les dramas, émissions ou vidéos coréennes ✅ Vous préparez un voyage en Corée ✅ Vous souhaitez communiquer plus facilement avec un ami, un partenaire ou un membre de votre famille coréen ✅ Vous préférez apprendre en utilisant la langue plutôt qu'en mémorisant des règles ✅ Vous avez déjà abandonné plusieurs fois l'apprentissage d'une langue en étant seul(e) ✅ Vous souhaitez vous faire de nouveaux amis ✅ Vous cherchez une nouvelle activité ou un nouveau hobby ✅ Vous aimez découvrir différentes cultures et rencontrer des personnes du monde entier --- # 🎁 Bonus réservé aux membres Chaque mois, les participants du Korean Starter Club reçoivent : 🍳 Un coupon de réduction de 5€ pour les ateliers de cuisine coréenne One World Kitchen. --- # 🌍 Format en ligne & présentiel Afin de permettre au plus grand nombre de participer : 💻 Version en ligne 🏠 Version en présentiel à Villejuif Après le cours de 15h, un petit tea time sera également organisé pour les participants présents sur place. ☕✨ --- # 👥 Venez seul(e) ou accompagné(e) Pas besoin de connaître quelqu'un !

Si l'apprentissage des langues vous a déjà semblé difficile ou solitaire, rejoignez-nous! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 # 🇰🇷☕ Korean Starter Club – Learn Korean Differently Hello everyone! 😊 My name is Sohyeon, and I currently live in France. I've been teaching Korean since the Covid period, and like many of you, I love learning languages. I currently speak and study: 🇫🇷 French 🇬🇧 English 🇷🇺 Russian 🇨🇳 Chinese 🇯🇵 Japanese While learning and teaching languages, I've often asked myself several questions: 🤔 What if someone wants to learn a new language but doesn't have much time? 🤔 How can children or people who struggle with reading learn a language effectively? 🤔 How can we create an environment where people can actually speak the language they are learning? 🤔 How can learners gain confidence while learning a language? 🤔 Is it possible to teach entirely in the target language while making sure students understand everything? --- ✨ These questions inspired me to create my own learning program. A program different from what you usually find in traditional textbooks. The goal is simple: 🇰🇷 Learn Korean by using Korean from day one. 💬 Understand naturally through context, visuals, gestures, and interaction. 🤝 Build a community where everyone can learn and grow together. --- # 🌱 Korean Starter Club This meetup is an introductory program designed for complete beginners and for people who want to regain confidence when speaking Korean. The goal is to discover a new way of learning Korean, practice together, and meet others who share the same interest in Korean language and culture. 📢 Opportunities to continue learning after this program will be presented during the meetups. --- # ☕ Tea Time After Class After class, we'll spend some time together over tea or coffee. 🍵 Practice Korean 💬 Chat freely 🤝 Get to know each other 🌍 Meet people with similar interests --- # 🎯 This meetup is for you if... ✅ You know absolutely no Korean ✅ You've studied Korean before but need more speaking practice ✅ You'd rather learn with others than study alone ✅ You are a Korean child or young adult born and raised in France ✅ You don't have enough time for traditional language courses and lots of homework ✅ You need motivation to keep learning ✅ You know some grammar but hesitate when it's time to speak ✅ You'd like to gradually understand Korean dramas, variety shows, and videos ✅ You're planning a trip to Korea ✅ You'd like to communicate more naturally with a Korean friend, partner, or family member ✅ You prefer learning through real language use rather than memorizing grammar rules ✅ You've given up learning a language before because you were studying alone ✅ You'd like to make new friends ✅ You're looking for a new hobby or activity ✅ You enjoy discovering different cultures and meeting people from around the world --- # 🎁 Member Bonus Every month, Korean Starter Club members receive: 🍳 A €5 discount coupon for One World Kitchen Korean cooking workshops. --- # 🌍 Online & In-Person Format To allow as many people as possible to participate: 💻 Online sessions available 🏠 In-person sessions in Villejuif After the 3:00 PM class, participants attending in person are also invited to join a small tea time. ☕✨ --- # 👥 Come Alone or Bring Someone You don't need to know anyone to join!

🌹 **An intimate living room session for women to slow down, connect and set new intentions under the energy of the New Moon.** 🌙 The Gemini New Moon invites us to soften the mind, come back to our voice and reflect on what we truly want to express, create and invite into this new cycle. **Together we will gather in a small circle with ceremonial cacao from Bali, journaling, sharing and a soft sound healing.** You don’t need any experience with cacao, circles or sound healing. This evening is a gentle invitation to arrive exactly as you are.

I am a certified cacao ceremony facilitator and a Sound Healing Practitioner Level 1, 2 & 3, trained in Bali. During my travels, from learning about meditation while living with monks in Thailand to discovering the power of cacao, sound and women’s circles in Bali, I felt how healing it can be to gather, soften and support each other as women. RAIVIDA Circle was created from that same feeling. A warm and intimate space where women can connect, feel held, return to themselves and rise from within. Instagram: [@raividacircle](https://www.instagram.com/raividacircle/) I’m looking forward to sharing this space with you. With love, Pati

We’re heading out for a beautiful 20 km loop hike from Afferden through the gorgeous Nationaal Park De Maasduinen. This route takes us through a striking Limburg landscape of forest, sandy paths, open heathland, river dunes, and wide views. Along the way, we pass the ruins of Kasteel Bleijenbeek and climb an uitkijktoren for a panoramic view over the Maasduinen landscape. One of the special features of this hike is that we cross the Maas river twice by small ferry. These crossings give the route an extra sense of adventure and connect the Maasduinen landscape with the village side of the river. After one of the crossings, we continue to the village of Vierlingsbeek, where we’ll take our longer break for a drink. After the break, we make our way back toward Afferden, completing a varied loop through forest, heathland, castle history, river scenery, ferry crossings, and quiet Limburg countryside. A hike with forest energy, open heathland, castle ruins, a lookout tower, two Maas river crossings, and a relaxed village drink stop. **📍When and where to meet?** We’ll meet at 11h15 at Busstop "Afferden, Veer naar Sambeek" https://maps.app.goo.gl/kcg4hBvRsHoUjBSa6 ⏰ **We start walking a few minutes after meeting up** We don’t wait for latecomers, as we have a long route ahead and want to enjoy the full day properly. **🚗 Coming by car?** Please check your parking options beforehand so you arrive on time. **⏸️ Planned Breaks** After **4 km:** break at watchtower (5 min) After **7 km:** Having a lunchbreak at ruins of Castle Bleijenbeek (25 min) After **13 km:** Ferry over the Maas After **14 km:** Drinks at bar in Vierlingsbeek (50 min) After **20 km:** Ferry back over the Maas (bring small change to pay the ferry) I still need to confirm or make a reservation at the bar. **💸 Payment** Please pay as soon as you sign up: To keep things fair for everyone, if we don’t receive your payment within 48 hours, we will need to remove you from the participant list.
