http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/nation/2008/12/117_37020.html
At the beginning of the article, a Ministry of Education official is quoted as saying it's better to have high turnover for native English teachers because experience is not important and children should be exposed to different kinds of foreigners.
Then one *possible* reason for teachers not resigning is the worsening relations between DPRK and ROK...
But later, another Ministry of Education says they will create incentives to keep teachers longer...
Quote: |
A native English speaker who has just started to teach English in Korea can receive a salary equivalent to that paid to a Korean teacher with five years of experience, an official said. |
Can anyone disprove this statement reported by Kang Shin-who of the Korea Times?
I didn't like this article.
Happy New Year, friends |
