We've received another offer, but it's for both my wife and I. It's not in Seoul as we planned, but it's a guaranteed job for her (saves us buying a flight), and less classroom hours than the job offer in Seoul. So yeah, if you've got any thoughts on the contract or school, please let us know.

Contract:
1.9 million won each (120 hours)
3 bedroom apartment with 2 bathrooms (walking distance from school)
1 week vacation in summer plus national holidays
3-9pm, Monday to Friday
overtime-15,000
elementary, middle school students

Thanks

If nothing else, the name would look very impressive on your resume after you leave.

Well we went ahead and accepted the contract at this school. It sounds like a really great environment to work in. We'll put up another post when we get there to see if it's what it is cracked up to be. Thanks to all of you for all of your opinions and little tidbits of helpful info, this can be quite the site to get an understanding of what life and teaching in Korea can be like.
