Which "Hi Teacher" are you talking about? There is a website where you can post your resume called "HiTeacher".

Try and get your gangster father in law to get you a job collecting debts. I'd guess most Koreans would freak out if a foreigner came to their place with a baseball bat asking for money.

Is there a website called HiThug.com? That's where you should go.

You are one of those people who makes jokes that no one laughs at.

Way to help out someone asking for input guys...I've heard of Hi Teacher although I don't know anyone personally who has used them. There are so many recruiters. I will vouch for 3 like I always do (so you don't think I'm a recruiter) 1)James Jeong at esl411.com , 2)Jason Creswell at asknow.ca , 3)Mini Kim at kimnjoe.com . Those are all legit recruiters who can speak English and will provide the contact info of current foreign teachers. The rest is really up to you. Remember that there are other cool cities besides Seoul and Busan. Hope that helps and good luck.

You've been a member of Daves for about a month. You obviously don't know Kentucker4's posting history. If you had read some of his posts, you'd realise what you are dealing with.

Kentucker is either..
1. Smoking some really good @#$%.
2. The biggest idiot around.
3. Talks the biggest pile of @#$% you've ever heard and stretches the truth like a fat chick in a size zero dress.
4. A troll of legendary proportions.

My vote is for 2...with a bit of 3 thrown in...But we'll never know.

I've never head of that recruiter.

However, if you plan to apply to a public school program. I'm somewhat certain that there is a short list of recruiters that the Korean Government specifically works with (maybe a dozen or so?).

I think I saw it on the ETIS website.

You have to be weary of a recruiter with the name "hi teacher" Must have been difficult to come up with that name. Creativity is highly overrated.

I think you may mean "wary" instead of "weary".

Dictionaries are highly overrated.

Maybe try Hi Hello Teacher. They're quite reputable and they'll even hire people from places like Kentucky and Georgia. You're in business, bro.
