# ๐ฐ๐ทโ Korean Starter Club โ Apprendre le corรฉen autrement
Bonjour ร tous ! ๐
Je m'appelle Sohyeon et je vis actuellement en France.
J'enseigne le corรฉen depuis la pรฉriode du Covid et, comme beaucoup d'entre vous, j'adore apprendre les langues.
Je parle et j'apprends actuellement :
๐ซ๐ท Franรงais
๐ฌ๐ง Anglais
๐ท๐บ Russe
๐จ๐ณ Chinois
๐ฏ๐ต Japonais
En apprenant et en enseignant diffรฉrentes langues, je me suis souvent posรฉ plusieurs questions :
๐ค Comment apprendre une nouvelle langue lorsqu'on manque de temps ?
๐ค Comment aider les enfants ou les personnes qui ont des difficultรฉs avec la lecture ?
๐ค Comment crรฉer un environnement oรน l'on peut rรฉellement parler la langue รฉtudiรฉe ?
๐ค Comment gagner en confiance lorsqu'on apprend une langue ?
๐ค Est-il possible d'enseigner uniquement dans la langue cible tout en restant comprรฉhensible pour tous ?
---
โจ C'est ร partir de ces rรฉflexions que j'ai crรฉรฉ mon propre programme.
Un programme diffรฉrent de ceux que l'on trouve dans les manuels classiques.
L'objectif est simple :
๐ฐ๐ท Apprendre le corรฉen en utilisant le corรฉen dรจs le premier jour.
๐ฌ Comprendre naturellement grรขce au contexte, aux images, aux gestes et aux interactions.
๐ค Crรฉer une communautรฉ oรน chacun peut progresser ensemble.

# ๐ฐ๐ทโ Korean Starter Club โ Learn Korean Differently
Hello everyone! ๐
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:
๐ซ๐ท French
๐ฌ๐ง English
๐ท๐บ Russian
๐จ๐ณ Chinese
๐ฏ๐ต Japanese
While learning and teaching languages, I've often asked myself several questions:
๐ค What if someone wants to learn a new language but doesn't have much time?
๐ค How can children or people who struggle with reading learn a language effectively?
๐ค How can we create an environment where people can actually speak the language they are learning?
๐ค How can learners gain confidence while learning a language?
๐ค Is it possible to teach entirely in the target language while making sure students understand everything?
---
โจ 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:
๐ฐ๐ท Learn Korean by using Korean from day one.
๐ฌ Understand naturally through context, visuals, gestures, and interaction.
๐ค Build a community where everyone can learn and grow together.
---

June 11 th Dutch Fabric User Group
**Agenda:**
17.00 - 18.00 Walk-in + Dinner
18.00 -19.00 **Fabric automated documentation**
19.00 -19.30 Short break
19.30 - 20.30 **How to get the most out of Fabric Data Factory**
20.30 - 21.00 Round-up and drinks
**Sessions & Speakers**
**Fabric automated documentation:**
by Marco Hansma, Data Architect & Head of Data Engineering and Michael Wanzik, AI & Data Engineer
**Session abstract**
Documentation matters, but in practice it's often the first thing that gets neglected. It takes time, becomes outdated quickly, and feels like an administrative burden for many teams.
In this session, we show how to approach this differently using Microsoft Fabric and AI not by adding yet another process, but by letting documentation emerge automatically as part of your normal data work.
Through a live demo, we show how documentation is generated automatically, stays current, and is immediately useful for data engineers, BI specialists, architects, and business stakeholders. Think technical documentation, functional explanations, lineage context, and descriptions that helps people understand and use data faster and more effectively.
We also cover how to handle this across different environments: from open innovation settings to organizations with strict security and compliance requirements.
After this session, you'll leave with a clear picture of how AI can transform documentation from a forgotten afterthought into a natural part of your data platform.
**Who is this for?**
Data engineers, BI specialists, data architects, analytics engineers, platform teams, and anyone working with Microsoft Fabric or responsible for improving data governance.
**What you'll take away**
* How AI can automatically generate documentation within your data platform
* How Microsoft Fabric can serve as the foundation for this
* A practical example you can immediately apply to your own organization
* How to get started, even in strictly secured environments
**Session 2:**
**How to get the most out of Fabric Data Factory**
by Jeroen Luitwieler, Senior Product Manager, Microsoft
As always, we're looking for speakers. So, if you have an interesting story to share, please submit your session to our [Call for Speakers](https://sessionize.com/dutch-fabric-user-group-2026/) If you're a first-time speaker, don't worry! We are more than happy to help you taking your first steps in the wonderful world of public speaking. Also, for all sessions submitted and not selected, we will keep a list of all sessions for future events.
National Park De Maasduinen 20 km
Weโre 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 weโll 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.
**๐When and where to meet?**
Weโll meet at 11h15 at Busstop "Afferden, Veer naar Sambeek" https://maps.app.goo.gl/kcg4hBvRsHoUjBSa6
โฐ **We start walking a few minutes after meeting up**
We donโt wait for latecomers, as we have a long route ahead and want to enjoy the full day properly.
**๐ Coming by car?**
Please check your parking options beforehand so you arrive on time.
**โธ๏ธ 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.
**๐ธ Payment**
Please pay as soon as you sign up: To keep things fair for everyone, if we donโt receive your payment within 48 hours, we will need to remove you from the participant list. If thereโs a waiting list, this will happen sooner (in less than 48 hours). If that happens, no worries โ youโre always welcome to sign up again if thereโs space.

American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

Candle Making Night at The Arcane Foundry | Design Your Own Custom Candle
## Candle Making Night at The Arcane Foundry \| Design Your Own Custom Candle
**SPECIAL PROMOTION**: Buy 3 and get 1 Free!
Step into The Arcane Foundry and create your own custom candle from start to finish. This is a laid back, hands-on experience where **youโll blend fragrances, choose your vessel, and pour your own candle using 100% soy wax**. Whether youโre coming solo or with friends, itโs designed to be simple, creative, and a good time.
Weโll walk you through the entire process, from picking your scents to choosing between a traditional cotton wick or a crackling wood wick. You can go with one fragrance or mix your own blend to create something completely unique**. No experience needed**, just show up and weโll handle the rest.
While your candle sets, feel free to hang out, play a game, explore the shop, or just relax and talk. Drinks and snacks are available, and the atmosphere leans into the **fantasy**, **dark academia**, and **gothic horror** vibe The Arcane Foundry is known for.
