KGUC welcomes students with international aspirations, and wefve set the
goal of nurturing our students to have a global mind. In order to achieve this goal we hold up these three major objectives: to improve English communication skills, to promote understanding of different cultures, and to conduct exchange between overseas students and ours. |
Special
English language curriculum KGUC offers to students its organized language program in which students learn English from ALTs (assistant language teachers), read full-length works in English, join the KGUC English speech contest, and so on. |
Computer-Assisted
Language Learning room This room is open to KGUC students and the UNESCO club. Students can make use of this lab not only during regular class hours but also after school for listening, practicing English conversation, and using the Internet. |
Exchange
Programs We have already established several exchange programs, in which students visit sister schools in Canada and Korea. There, they learn English, and can exchange cultures with students there. |
