Does anyone know of a school supply type store in Suwon or Seoul that sells educational posters/wall decorations in English? Other those motivational types or things like the alphabet, body parts, etc.

It would need to be open tonight.

Please help, I just found out that I have a VIP coming tomorrow and I'd like to spruce things up a bit around here.

Thanks!

I'm confused by the way you phrased this. Do you want posters with the alphabet, body parts, ect or not?
If you do, I know of a good bookstore near the Youngtong homeplus that sells a lot of posters and maps.
Otherwise I don't really know where you could go.

And why pay gazillions of dollars?

I have a whole load of posters I've collected and formatted. Print in .pdf as big as B2. Find them under Resources - Sharing - Teachers Tools

Kim and Johnson in Gangnam usually have posters if you want a different sort. Or try Amazon, check out our EFL Classroom Amazon bookstore http://eflclassroom.com/wpage/books under teaching accessories...

Sorry, that should read "Either those motivational . . ."

Could you tell me where that bookstore in Yeongteong is?

Maybe you could try Kidari (키다리 영어샵). http://www.ikidari.co.kr/

The Kidari shop in Anyang has some of those posters (body parts, alphabet, animals, etc.) which I think you're referring to. They have a shop in Suwon as well, so if you've got nowhere else to turn you could try there; I haven't been to the Suwon branch myself though, so I can't say for sure whether they'll have what you need.

Sure, the bookstore is called "Little John's". Come out the backdoor of Homeplus and cross the street at the intersection. On one side of the road, there is a big jewelry store on the corner, walk into the building that the jewelery store is connected to.
Little John's is in there. It's at the back of the building. You can't really miss it (although sorry if my directions are not more detailed).

Politica,

I've been MIA for a bit but hope this worked out for you.

Get your school tech guy to help. You don't do anything in Adobe vis a vis printing. Just that abobe doesn't lose quality when it is printed big. What you have to do is change the settings of your printing and possibly printer, in print set up.....toooo long to explain.

Cheers,

DD
