Confident from the first day of school! Customized Korean language textbooks for students with immigrant backgrounds and those who entered the country midway through school.

A simple greeting like "Hello?" is the first step to living in Korea.
School can sometimes be a scary place for children who must communicate in Korean in a new environment.
『Easy Korean with Gifted Teachers - School Life』, jointly developed by current teacher and gifted education expert Eun-Jeong Choi and current vice principal Jeong-Ha Lee, is a special gift for these children.

The most notable feature of this book is that it focuses entirely on ‘real school situations.’
It covers every moment of school life, from greeting neighbors on the way to school, to manners in the cafeteria, playing with friends, and using the infirmary when sick.

Each unit begins with a dialogue that recreates a real-life situation, familiarizing you with key words and sentences, and then enhancing your learning through hands-on practice.
In particular, the 'Let's Learn Korean Culture' corner is designed to go beyond simple language learning and help you naturally understand Korean school culture and etiquette.

Support for 7 language sound pens is a special feature of this textbook.
Voice support is available in Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Filipino, Cambodian, Japanese, and English, allowing children to learn Korean with help in their native language.
The special binding, which allows the book to open 180 degrees, is a thoughtful detail that allows children to write and study conveniently.

This book is not simply a textbook for teaching Korean.
It is a practical tool for living confidently in a Korean school and a solid guide for adapting to a new culture.
Based on the experiences of countless students with immigrant backgrounds and those who entered the country midway through their studies, I hope this book will help all children confidently communicate in Korean and enjoy a happy school life.

Communicate Confidently in Korean Schools! A Korean Language Textbook Tailored for Students with Immigrant Backgrounds
"Easy Korean with Youngjae Teacher - School Life" published...
Innovation in self-directed learning with support for seven language sound pens.

As the adaptation of students from immigrant backgrounds to Korean schools has emerged as a social issue, specialized Korean language textbooks for these students have been published and are attracting attention.
"Easy Korean with Youngjae Teacher - School Life," jointly developed by a teacher and vice principal with 20 years of experience, is an innovative textbook that helps students adapt to real-world situations through Korean language learning tailored to school life.

A new horizon in practical Korean language education, built on 20 years of field experience.

This textbook, published by Eduwind, was developed by Eun-Jeong Choi, a teacher at the Goyang Office of Education in Gyeonggi Province, and Vice-Principal Jeong-Ha Lee, based on the real-life experiences of students with immigrant backgrounds who entered the country midway through their education careers.
It is characterized by focusing on ‘living Korean that is actually used in schools’ rather than simply learning Korean grammar.

Teacher Eun-Jeong Choi, the author, said, "It was heartbreaking to see so many students who had immigrated to Korea in the classroom being discouraged by the language barrier.
“I thought these kids needed practical tools to communicate confidently at school,” he explained the development background.

Complete coverage of school life, from the commute to the infirmary.

This textbook organizes every moment of school life into 10 units.
It covers all situations encountered at school, from greeting students on the way to school, forming friendships, mealtime etiquette, participating in physical education, asking questions, submitting homework, and using the health room.

Each unit begins with a dialogue that recreates a real-life situation, then learns key words and sentences, and after direct practice in the "Let's Read and Write Correctly" section, it is structured so that students can understand the cultural context in the "Let's Learn Korean Culture" section.

It is particularly noteworthy that it allows students to naturally learn Korean school culture and etiquette.
By learning unique Korean cultural elements such as school lunch culture, classroom etiquette, and Taekwondo along with language learning, students can go beyond simple communication and even achieve cultural adaptation.

Innovation in self-directed learning with support for seven language sound pens

The most innovative feature of this textbook is its support for sound pens in seven languages.
Voice support is available in Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Filipino, Cambodian, Japanese, and English, allowing students to learn Korean with assistance in their native language.

"After selecting a language with the sound pen, you can touch the letters in the textbook to hear an explanation in that language, enabling children to learn independently.
“It’s especially useful when studying with your parents at home,” explained co-author and Vice Principal Lee Jeong-ha.

Swiss binding opens 180 degrees, maximizing learning convenience.

Meticulous attention was also paid to the physical production.
The special binding method of Swiss binding that opens completely 180 degrees maximizes the convenience of learning and writing.
With a suitable size of 148×210mm and 96 pages, it can be used without burden.

Enthusiastic response from the educational field

Before publication, it was piloted in some schools and received positive responses from both teachers and students.
An elementary school teacher in Seoul said, "This is a textbook that is practically helpful in teaching students who entered the country midway through school," and added, "The fact that the sound pen function allows students to study on their own is especially useful."

A parent of a fourth grader from Vietnam said, "After studying with this textbook for three months, my child no longer has difficulty conversing with friends at school," and "It's especially nice that we can study together at home with the Vietnamese voice support."

A timely publication in line with multicultural education policy.

As the Ministry of Education has recently been strengthening its support for multicultural education, the publication of this specialized textbook is considered timely.
As the number of students with immigrant backgrounds and those who entered the country midway through the country continues to increase, it is expected to be utilized as a practical educational tool.

Eduwind CEO Lee Soo-bun said, "I hope this textbook will be of practical help to students with immigrant backgrounds and those who entered the country midway through school to adapt to school," and added, "We will continue to develop necessary educational content by identifying the needs of various educational settings."

Expanded into a series, with daily life edition also published simultaneously

Along with the "School Life" section, the "Daily Life" section is also published simultaneously, allowing students to comprehensively develop Korean communication skills in school and daily life.
It is expected that using these two books together will be of great help to students with immigrant backgrounds in adjusting to life in Korea.
