project worries

Anxious, scared, don't feel confident & completely useless.
They are the words going through my head at the moment. Why, I hear you ask? Because I have so much uni work to complete over the next few weeks :( I have a print feature to complete and lay out (feeling pretty confident on that one), a huge essay on politics and then (this is the huge one that I am dreading) the online feature.
Now, I really do love Online Journalism as it is something I would love to build a career on once I graduate, but the huge problem running through me is the subject I am writing on.
Basically, my idea is to write about foreign languages and how if you were to learn a new language (other than your native tongue) you can get ahead career-wise. Okay, I can hear you say "but that won't be a problem" but it is. My tutor has instructed me to go to a language class and get experience in learning a new language. At first I thought "hey not a problem. I already know Gaelic and French. So what harm will it be knowing something else." My teacher then asked me the dreaded question "What is one country you'd love to visit in your lifetime?" and me being idiotic said "Korea". So now I am having to hunt down Korean language classes in the London area hoping something would show up at no cost. FAIL!!! Every class in London and surrounding areas ask for a fee, not a small fee, but a huge one. How depressing :(
So I thought I would send out a call for help and address my readers and ask
Do any of my readers speak or know Korean and would like to help me with my assignment? It would be much appreciated.

Thank you my lovelies
Peace out
