I suppose this post will be deleted, but what do you make of this strange ad?
Short hours- 6 is short?
Do you work 7 days a week?
30 foreign teachers....are there schools that large?
1. Super high salary with short hours! (only American and Canadian teachers needed)
Take this great opportunity in Korea. 2.5mil~3.0mil KRW (2650~3100USD) per month.
ONLY ��'6'' HOURS A DAY! Don't miss it! Even if you need to work on Sunday, it's just only 6 hours and you can save a big money. You don't have to worry about adopting new life in Korea. There are already 30 foreign teachers who can help you. |

The only times I've seen that many teachers in one building was 1/2 price pitcher night at a certain establishemnt in Itaewon.  |

Here is what I make of it.
If that lawsuit for false and misleading statements against the website posting job applications ever produces a judgment against the website, you'll never see ads like the one above again on Dave's ESL.

| Obviously, they are trying to find a noob who knows nothing. I don't know if it's false or misleading though. For someone working fulltime in the US or Canada 6 seems short. I don't know if anyone will fall for the Sunday angle. I'm sure you'd be able to save a lot of money though since it doesn't seem like you'd have time to do anything else. |

6 hours a day is 2 less than at a public school.
I for one wouldn't mind working on Sunday if I have Friday off. |

Ahhh... But two very different kinds of hours. Some prefer one to the other, while others have the opposite opinion. Either way, the "do nothing" hours of a public school should not be compared to "hagwon monkey suit" hours. |

If six hours means 8-10 lessons it would be a lot more tiring than public school, for sure. |

| That might only be the classroom time. The "other required activities" probably add up to a lot more. |
