Would anyone actually bother to do this?


*Starting date: ASAP
*Time and Date: Will be decided after meeting but mostly it will be once a week.
1.5 hrs/1 day
*Student information : Celebrities of Climax Entertainment, CJ Entertainment
http://www.climix.co.kr/
http://www.cjent.co.kr/
(They belong to the top 5 entertainment company in Korea, They make movies, dramas, produce albums, manage stars,..etc.)
*Notice: There will be no payment. It is a volunteer job.
It is a social networking between Entertainment/ Broadcasting celebrities and English teachers.
You will have lots of fun with Top stars and CEOs.
And you will gain a popularity being as English teacher of those top stars.
(Just like Madonna's Trainer, Celine Dion's English teacher ^^)
We will help you to take picture with them all the time and when you write a book they will be glad to write a recommendations for you.


**EDIT***

Several people have asked me for the contact info for this job. I don't have the specific website, but I think I found it on English Spectrum or Worknplay. Browse through their job listings and look back around the date I made this topic.

Oh, what an honor it would be to teach and not get paid. What a good deal. Where do I sign up?

I would only do it if they told me the name of the celebrity first.

Social networking? Ummm, no one comes up and talks to the English teacher of a celebrity; they talk to the celebrity. Smile

I taught a celebrity years ago, but I'm pretty sure I charged 150 an hour. Nice girl.

Can't blame them for trying, but, COME ON, let's be serious.

I wonder if the recruiting company is billing the "celebrities."

I'd do it, but you know its gonna be some humdrum no name celebrity that is featured in such soap operas such as "old ladys talk for hours about nothing" and "some acient palace where everyone wears funny hats"...

If they were "real" celebrities I'd expect to see moola.

Because

1) They have the moola to dish out
2) They want a "quality" teacher.

Although, talking to CEO's is more intriguing to me... A friend like that hasa lot of worth in terms of networking with important people. Maybe you won't meet Lee Hyori but you could potentially meet a producer whos done one of her films... or something.

150 an hour? Fk. I guess they overpaid. An English lesson is not worth that.

They'll probably throw in elementary and middle school classes... Who knows? Maybe mostly CEOs or whatever paying the company a truckload while you teach for free.

Eat me.

I wondering about "Climax" productions?

Is this porn?

If so, I'm not going to sign up because Korean porn sucks.

Maybe they're auditioning for foreign porn stars. Laughing
