Is anyone out there getting unexplaned raises? My pay just went up to 2.7 and I was given no reason, just a written message. I'm not bragging, just curious if this has anything to do with the new regs, teacher shortage, etc. Thanks |

When I came into work today I found an envelope on my desk with 2,000,000 won inside and a note from the principal thanking me for doing such a great job teaching. |

Suddenly "and then I found $5" doesn't seem like such a great story saver any more. |

At my PS, I was included partly in the christmas bonus that the Korean staff get. Mint! I had to check to actually find out what it was, took some questioning, but very very happy when I found out.
If you're PS then you'll need to watch out with payrises that aren't included in the contract. My friend was bumped up a level and was paid as such for 5 months. Other schools didn't give their teacher the payrise. For some reason the school asked for it back, so he had to give back 1 million. Pain in the ass. It wasn't agreed in writing so they were capable of asking for it back. |

Congrats on the sudden raises//bonus! Nice.
On the topic of raises...
How much more could I conceivably ask for if resigning? It's a public school. I think we go up 100K a month just for the next level, but can I ask for another 100K on top of that since I'll be at the same school? I'm not with EPIK or SMOE or anything...direct hire. |

One of my buds who has been here 5 years told me to question anything you want on your next contract if you renew. |
