| Please explain this 100 hour TESOL course in more detail because apparently the GEPIK school I spoke seems to think my 120 course doesn't make the cut? Therefore want to bump be down from a category 1 teacher to a category 2 teacher on the pay scale. Personally I think they are trying to be cheap and save an extra 200K won per month. |

2 years in duration for an MA 
I wonder how they verify that, most MAT programs I've looked into are a little over one year. |

Yes, it is! While it may be "peanuts" to a lot of posters here, there is an opportunity to make more with after school classes--closer to 3m / month, and still getting off before dinner time. |
