First, South Korea's high school learning requirements
1, education requirements
South Korea only accepts international students with high school education or above to study in South Korea. However, Korean high school students' college entrance examination scores are not required to be provided only by the holders. Basically, you can get a high school diploma after the second year of high school, and you won't fail the exam. In other words, international students must have received 12 years of formal education in their home countries before they can apply for studying in Korea!
2. Age requirements
Because studying in Korea requires a certain degree of self-care and learning ability, South Korea has an age requirement for international students, which is generally between 17-30 years old. Moreover, it is best for international students to apply for a visa within two years after graduation, and the chances of success are even greater.
3. Language requirements
South Korea does not have high language requirements for international students. For Korean foundation, high school students can have zero language foundation. If foreign students don't have a certain language foundation, they can make up for it by taking language classes. Generally, South Korea will require international students to apply for a one-year Korean course. After the course is passed, a language test will be conducted to reach the language level of the declared professional university school, and then you can start studying the professional courses of Korean universities. However, if you want to learn a language, you'd better go to a school in Seoul, because there are no dialects in Seoul, which will help you learn a language.
Second, South Korea's high school learning style
1, apply directly
Studying in South Korea through direct reporting is still quite demanding for students. First of all, students need to have a certain Korean foundation, and TOPIK scores need to reach the standard of 4-5. If students don't have basic knowledge of Korean, they need to take language classes for a period of time before going to Korea, which will increase the cost of studying in Korea and affect their daily life.
2、? Preparatory course for studying in Korea
Students who have no basic knowledge of Korean can take a one-year preparatory course in Korea to improve their Korean scores, and at the same time adapt to the Korean education model in advance to lay a solid foundation for studying in Korea.
In addition, the Korean preparatory course employs professional foreign teachers to provide oral training for students, cultivate their ability to communicate flexibly in Korean, and get to know Korean cultural life customs in advance.
Third, the advantages of high school in South Korea
1, going to college is more secure.
Today's China can be said to be "crossing a wooden bridge with thousands of troops". It is even more difficult to get into a good university. However, if you study in high school in Korea, you can take part in the Korean college entrance examination, and the number of university places is much more than that of international students. As long as they meet the basic requirements of Korean high school culture curriculum, high school students studying in Korea can enter Korean universities. In addition, some high schools in South Korea have set a certain number of places for international students to walk in consideration of the particularity of international students.
Step 2 save time
If you have a plan to send your children to study abroad, you should be prepared when you are in Grade One and Grade Two. If you want to study abroad after graduating from high school in China, you must go to the local language school for 1-2 years before you can enter the university, which not only wastes time, but also increases the risk of being admitted to a good university. If you come to South Korea to study in high school directly, you can study as a student, and you can go directly to college after graduating from high school.
In addition, many schools offer English-taught courses, and students who take such courses can apply overseas (including Europe and America) directly after graduation.
3. Children are receptive and learn foreign languages quickly.
As we all know, the younger a child is, the stronger his language ability is. But in fact, China lacks the necessary language environment. Studying in high school in Korea can not only expose children to Korean environment, but also speed up the process of learning Korean. Specially designed English teaching courses can also help children strengthen their English learning.
4. Make children more independent, and the management mode is suitable for China people.
Compared with the free and open management mode in Europe and America, South Korea is more similar to China and has very strict discipline requirements. At present, South Korea's high schools that accept international students are basically boarding and fully enclosed management models. Life and study are all on campus, with special teachers in charge of management and special teachers leading them when they go out, which is very safe.
