I'm a public school teacher and I enjoy it. I'd say that I landed on my feet. I've always been a good teacher and now I'm getting paid for teaching, too. Imagine that- getting paid! It can happen. Laughing My life is starting to get back to normal, whatever that may be Laughing . I actually caught myself smiling for no reason. That's a good thing.
Once the case against St Andrew's in Ilsan is finally resolved, I'll post my location.

Wonderful to hear your in a much better place. I'm glad you hung in there!
I hope it all turns out as well in the end as the beginning has been.

Congrats and good luck at the public school. If you need help on lesson ideas, don't hesitate to ask.

Nice to hear things appear to be finally working out for you.

Good luck!

PS: Yeah getting paid on time...I'm still shell-shocked myself Laughing

Very Happy

Be sure that someone who's heard about this will at some day run into someone looking at teaching there (or sending their kids there) and will be able to help others avoid dealing with them.

And St Andrew's management - we know you're reading this - be sure that your actions aganst Ian will come back to haunt you. Not all of us waegooks are push-overs, and your country isn't entirely devoid of justice, either.

You can be CERTAIN that they are reading every thread about their crapwon. Yeah, crapwon is a word. Look it up in the pictionary. Laughing

Was too busy to read through your prior details until a few days ago, and just wanted to say good looks on sticking to your guns, and for doing it the RIGHT way.

Good luck with your pubby school; I love mine and wouldn't ever think of heading back to the hagwons.

Need any help with ideas/resources/questions, just ask.

I'm sorry to hear you quit St. Andrew's. You should've honored your contract, and when it was broken, you shoud've respected your boss as he was your senior.

Shame on you for sticking up for yourself. You give foreign teachers a bad name.

Thank you. I just wanted everyone to know that life does go on. You can stand up for yourself, and if you're willing to go through a couple months of he11, you can prevail and end up in a better situation.
