WSE Korea Podcast

Rob, the program manager from Gwanghwamun Center, will talk about how questions can help you have more interesting conversations. He will explain how to make close-ended and open-ended questions, and talk about how to use them in a conversation.

Special guest Ryan Vandenberg, Program Manager of the Shinchon WSI Center, talks about how scientists and researchers have found that people who speak different languages actually THINK differently and see the world differently too.

Sometimes, A single Korean word can have multiple different meanings in English, leading to a lot of confustion. In this episode, Sam looks at some of the most confusing pairs of English words for Korean English learners.

In this episode Sam talks about a selection of some of the most interesting Eglish expressions from our e-book '101 Illustrated English Expressions'.

In this episode, special guest Alex Habashi talks about how to set goals for your English learning. Sam talks about WSI's 40th anniversary and then explains how to refer to people's age groups in English.

Learning to speak a new language is not just a matter of understanding words and grammar. At WSI, we know it’s also vital to have an understanding and appreciation of the culture behind the language. If language is like a map, culture is like the climate. You can still get where you want to go with just a map, but without knowing the climate, it might not be a very comfortable trip!

Meet WSI's National Service Manager, Mark Evans, and then learn about some really interesting cultural differences between Korea and the West.
