Anybody worked there? It's a hagwon I guess?

That's the info I got so far;

Number of native teachers: 2
Students level: primary and secondary.
Salary: starts 2.0 million krw.
Severance pay.
50% medical insurance support
Free airplane ticket
Free single housing with basic furniture
30 hours teaching/week

What should I ask?



Thanks

ask for the native teachers' email

then fire away all your questions to them and hopefully they will answer honestly

you could ask about the school - start time/finish time, if there is additional work besides teaching, Saturdays work, if classes are curriculum based, do you need to make your own curriculum, etc

also ask about housing - where is the housing, how far from the school, any notable places nearby (subway, supermarket, etc)

I'm going to get some emails from current teachers. Just waiting for an email from my recruiter. I'll keep you up to date and post the email response from the current teachers. Were you offered a position there as well comm?

Nope, just trying to help make sure you ask the right questions before you sign
