What does one do for 2 months I think it is?....
There will be extra classes I have to teach here and maybe a formal camp at another location (is this optional)?
Does the time go fast?....
Do you get anytime off to sight see?
Cheers |

No, winter break begins in July. Summer break starts in December. (kidding)
Was your question sarccy or just weird?
OP:
If you're working in a public school you'll probably do about 2 or 3 weeks of doing nothing at school. You'll also probably do a 'camp' at your school (winter classes) for a week or two. You'll probably get 2 weeks vacation. You might be asked to work a camp somewhere else, depending on whether you're working for GEPIK/EPIK/Some Other Program. You'd probably be paid extra for a camp in another place, but you might not be.
If you're real lucky your school might say "See ya in March" and you'll have a 2 month vacation. |

| No, it was neither. Does winter break begin in December, January, or February? If it was a weird question why didn't you answer it instead of trying your hand at wit? Not all of us have been in Korea as long as yourself. |

JTC, the way it was explained to me: winter vacation starts late Dec., and school will start again late Jan./beginning of Feb. BUT, there is another short break between February and March somewhere - only 1-2 weeks. I'm at home, so I don't have the dates, but I'll post em when I get back to school...hope it helps. |

Sorry.
It's normal for winter vacation to begin in December. For public school teachers the actual time you have off will probably be in January or February though. I didn't mean to be rude. |
