A. Study plans to improve foreign languages(Korean, English, etc) required for taking a bachelor’s degree course BEFORE and AFTER you come to Korea. Before coming to Korea I've always been interested in foreign languages such as Japanese and Korean aside from English. I taught myself a good amount of Korean and basic Japanese , too. It was hard for me because there wasn't enough time due to my school schedule and there weren't any language institutes here that my family can afford either. I taught myself Korean using sites like Korean101. om , TalkToMeInKorean. com , HaruKorean. com and busy atm. com . These sites helped me improve my Koren and I plan to continue using them more frequently if I get accepted . Aside from these sites , I picked up a lot o

f my Korean just by watching English Subbed Korean shows and dramas . It was both entertaining , fun and educational too ! As for English I have been developing it ever since I was 9 years old , even before learning it in school I was mesmerized by this amazing language.

And as my curiosity grew, my desire to master this language grew too. I had a very good background before learning it in school. In my class I was always ahead of my classmates in English because I loved it . After 2 years I started making friends with other American girls and that improved my skills . Movies , novels and websites , It all helped me to speak English fluently aside from what I was learning in school . My family wasn't financially able to ge

me a seat in a language institute , which is why I haven't done the TOFEL exam yet .

Still I managed to teach myself . That makes me confident that if I get chosen for the scholarship and learn Korean and in an institute I'll be able to achieve more !! If I get chosen I'd spend the whole year studying as much as I can . Since I managed to teach myself English even though I was busy with school , exams and home works , I'm confident & 100% sure that if I spend a whole Year studying Korean and focusing on Korean I'll master Korean and learn very well . I would practice what I learn as I interact with people .

I would learn outside the institute using the websites that I mentioned above to rich my Korean and my English at the same time . I'll make use of every situation , every second starting from my arrival – since all I'll have to do is study the language I've always yearned to learn for a long time – and soak in whatever I can get my hands , ears and eyes on ! It just can't get any better. It has always been my dream to speak Korean fluently and more than that , I've always dreamed of having Korean friends and living in Korea .

I even wish that I'll be allowed to do volunteering in Korea & I really hope to get approval of my request and be able to pay back to the Korean community and get close to its people whether

it's elders , children or anything I want to do it , please help me fulfill this request too . I know that it's too much to ask but I want to volunteer . I wish that my Korean will help me earn Korean friends . I'd be honored if I get accepted by them and I'll be thankful if they teach me about their country , traditions and morals .

I hope that I can be good enough to get close to them and be worthy enough to learn from them . I'm always willing to try and willing to learn . Having a chance to become a step closer to my dreams , who's crazy enough to mess such an opportunity ! Aside from Korean I want to improve my English . As I taught myself Korean and some Japanese , I came to find my English improving gradually . When watching Korean media ( drama , shows .. etc) I learn new vocabularies in the English subs and after I translate them , I learn the Korean version of the words .

In my first year I'll focus on Korean but I won't forget my English either . I'll make sure to double the educational benefit of the scholarship that I'll receive . If I'll be given the chance to learn Korean , I'll make sure to get the best of what I have and double it up and improve my English and after that I have a new language : Japanese . If I was given the chance to receive a good education I'll make it double and gain

not only education and knowledge , I'll learn experience from everyone around me .

I will make friends with new people that'll be studying Korean with me . Practice both Korean and English with them & exchange culture with them ,too . As I progress in Korean I'll keep up with English . I'm planning on saving up from my allowance – or working part-time job – to be able to pay for the TOFEL and perform the exam , Since I've never been able to do so because I didn't have money . This is only the beginning for me . I want to learn Japanese , Italian , French and Spanish too . That way I'll be able to contact other people. If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart" . said Nelson Mandela As a person who's constantly fascinated by languages . I believe that a human being is on a journey of learning as long as he's breathing & never too old to learn . There's just so much to learn from everyone in this world ! by learning new languages I want to get in touch with its people and their minds , their culture and experiences !

My curiosity about the teachings other people carry around the world , fuels my desire to speak their language which will inspire me in my works and enlighten my life and my mind . I believe in myself and in my abilities & I'm yearning for attention , care

and support . I know that if I live in a constructive , educational environment it'll help me sharpen my skills and be a productive promising talent . If I get the chance to be a KGSP student , I will work hard to prove that you chose the right student and do my best to achieve that.
