How Many Times Can I Miss Class Without Falling Behind? – HH Korean Language Center

Korean is a language that builds layer by layer, each week introduces new grammar, vocabulary, and conversation patterns. Missing too many lessons can make it harder to keep up, but we understand that life happens. Here’s what you can expect and how to manage your progress if you need to miss a class.

🔹 Recommended Attendance for Smooth Progress

To maintain steady improvement, students should aim to attend at least 80–100% of their classes each term.

Missing 1–2 classes in a full course is generally manageable, especially if you:

Review the weekly class notes
Watch the revision video (if provided for your class type)
Join a replacement class as a silent student
Ask your teacher questions in the WhatsApp group

With the right support, you can still stay on track.

🔹 What Happens If You Miss More Than 2 Classes?

Once you miss 3 or more classes, you may start feeling:

Gaps in grammar understanding
Difficulty following new topics
Lower speaking confidence
Trouble keeping up with the class pace

At this point, we highly recommend:

Attending replacement classes
Reviewing notes in detail
Asking your teacher for guidance
Watching revision videos (if applicable)

This helps close the gap before it becomes overwhelming.

🔹 Missing Consecutive Weeks

Missing back-to-back weeks can affect your learning more significantly. Korean grammar builds on previous lessons, so skipping consecutive sessions may cause:

Confusion with sentence structure
Difficulty remembering patterns
Feeling lost in conversation practices

If this happens, inform the admin team, they can:

Recommend suitable replacement options
Suggest revision strategies
Advise whether continuing or repeating the level is better

We will help you make the best decision for your progress.

🔹 Replacement Options to Help You Keep Up

Depending on your class type, you may receive:

Up to 2 replacement classes per month (silent student mode)
Class notes
Teacher guidance in WhatsApp group
Revision videos (Conversation & Intensive classes only)

Using these supports makes a big difference in staying aligned with your class.
