|
|
I've tried the search on some information about Westgate's university program but came up short. Does anyone have any direct experience with this program? I'm currently working in Korea and am toying the idea of moving back to Japan where I worked for 2 years. Westgate seems like the academy that I work for right now, somewhat long hours but teachers doing a little more than just conversational work. I would like to know a little more about a typical schedule and what kind of lesson plans are encouraged by the program.
Thanks. |

This is what a friend of mine wrote when he worked at WC a few years ago.

I taught 7 40-min. classes per day. Actually, 2 or 3 days a week it was 6 classes but then you would have "English Challenge" for the additional period to make 7. Quite frankly, while the days were much longer -- with the commute and breaks you had during the day -- it now seems much less fatiguing than my present junior high deal. However, I would trade what I have now for it because of the salary, the hours, the vacation time, the security, and the ability to earn much more on the side. However, my present 16 70-min. class schedule (at another place) each week is rough. I prefer the much shorter 40-min. classes and the college kids! |
