AB - This research investigates the actual conditions and desirable directions of heritage language education of Korean-Canadians living in Toronto. For this research, a Korean language classroom was observed for four months, and a questionnaire was administered to 246 subjects, consisting of 125 adults and 121 children. Statistical analysis was conducted on the collected data. In general, the analysis is based on a review of the tradition and characteristics of multiculturalism and demolinguistics of Canada. The results indicate that there are 112 Korean schools in Canada today and the majority of Korean schools is governed by religious bodies. The issue is that their goals and instructional methods are relatively unsystematic and unspecified in terms of educating multilingual speakers. Here, it is argued that heritage language education for overseas Korean children should be an enrichment type of bilingual education in order to foster high proficiency in bilingual and multilingual speakers.
