How come there doesn't seem to be any winter camps in Daejeon??

Does anyone know of any?

[Typhoon]

KAIST has one this year, Chungnam has one as well. Several of the big hagwons (POLY, AVALON, etc) are running morning intensives that should need teachers too.

A lot of these winter camps appear to be a bit sucky- work 10-12 hours a day including saturdays, share accom, and get paid for a month almost the same you'd make for a month at a hogwon. Then run the risk of the operators dissapearing just before the big payday.

Why bother?

Nobody wants to work there. We're all afraid we're being watched!

For KAIST and Chungnam I would contact their foreign language education centers directly. For POLY, Chungdam, and Avalon I would call the schools and talk to the assitant directors. I know a fellow who works at the KAIST camps every year. I will check and see if he has a contact number or email and PM it to you if he has one.

Thanks a lot, Typhoon!!
