This book is the culmination of educational know-how and systematic grammar organization acquired by the three authors from their experience actually teaching Korean to foreigners in the classroom. In focusing strictly on Korean grammar, this series represents a departure from most current integrated teaching materials, allowing foreign learners to more easily concentrate on grammar in their study of Korean. The authors have included real dialogues and illustrations to make the study of Korean more interesting, especially for those students who have heretofore felt Koran grammar to be difficult. Further, this series equally serves as a general Korean grammar reference that can be used by Korean language instructors both in Korea and abroad who regularly experience the difficulty of teaching Korean grammar first-hand. 도서에 포함된 MP3(CD) 음원은 다락원 홈페이지(www.darakwon.co.kr)에서 무료 다운로드 가능합니다. 이 책은 한국어 교육 현장에서 실제 외국인 학생들에게 한국어를 가르치고 있는 한국어 강사 세 명의 교육 노하우와 체계적인 문법 정리가 집약된 교재이다. 기존의 대다수를 차지하고 있는 통합 교재와는 달리 한국어 문법만을 대상으로 삼아 외국인들이 보다 문법 공부에 집중할 수 있게 하였다. - TOPIK 1~2급의 문법 총정리! 한국의 대학 기관과 학원에서 가르치고 있는 교재의 1~2급에 나오는 문법들을 총망라해 한 눈에 볼 수 있게 하였다. - 의미가 비슷한 문법들의 차이점, 한 눈에 쏙쏙 정리! 의미나 쓰임, 또는 형태가 비슷하거나 혼동되는 문법을 비교해 놓아 문법 공부에 집중하였고, 문법의 나열식 습득을 넘는 통합적인 문법 학습을 목표로 한다. - 한 가지 상황에 대한 다양한 표현 연습! 상황이나 맥락에 따른 문법의 적절한 사용법과 한국어의 관용적 표현, 문화적 맥락 속에서의 이해 등을 도와 학습자들이 보다 자연스러운 한국어를 사용하도록 한다. - 문법을 활용한 실용 만점의 대화 완성! 학습한 문법을 생생한 실용 문장으로 복습한다. 문법을 위한 형식적인 문장이 아닌 일상생활 에서 실제로 사용하는 생활 밀착형 대화문을 통해 좀 더 친밀한 한국어 학습을 돕는다.
