News & Updates
 
"ANOTHER prestigious Fulbright win! Congrats, Abby Neer! She’s heading to South Korea to teach English.
 
“I find Korean really interesting because their writing system is really beautiful and really systematic. It's phonetic, and really easy to learn. It was created in the 1400s specifically to help more people be literate, and so the shapes of the letters kind of match the shape of your mouth.”
 
She’ll get to practice her Korean, but she'll also be teaching students English, which is something she volunteers doing. She hopes to go to grad school and continue that work.“
 
Meeting people that came here to learn English as a Second Language ... I felt their pain! I really like Korean movies and TV, and when you learn from a textbook, it's not always the same as how people actually talk. That’s something I really want to focus on. And I want to make it fun, and bring in movies, TV shows, and other media to show them natural speech.
 
”She’s also pretty excited to try Korean fried chicken!"
