Contradiction of Korean English Education

- Centrally on input and output

fluently. In this process, the contradiction of
Korean English education occurs; Korean
students learn and study English but cannot use
it in the real world as language.
Many education experts have insisted
Korean English education has been comprised
of too much input (what they learned in class),
and not enough output (expressing or utilizing
what they learned in class or study). According
When they are young, most Korean students to further studies, the majority of Korean
study basic English elements such as grammar, students study English not for communicating
words, speaking, listening and writing. But
being older, they usually tend to focus on

only how to solve English questions for SAT
examination which has the purpose of making
students think logically. In their study, they can
probably improve their logic but they cannot
learn what real English communication is and
how to use it and speak English and approach

to communicate with other English speakers
