No offence but I'd recommend you get a bit more training first

So your adult learners are not students? They would be __________ ??

Are you sure English is your first language?

Then again Tom, you do put a period at the end of each of your posts for some unknown reason... Very Happy

Pogada and YBM sisa. Both are in the Chongno area. Not great jobs but great dating opportunities

Because they stopped the use of the auto signature feature of the board.

But still... why? Do you just feel better having an extra 2 lines? More "breathing room"? Laughing

Well maybe i do need some more training, but when i first started to teach English my students were adults.
I seem to enjoy more teaching adults than high school students.
And yes my first language was English.
I didn't know i would get flamed so much for just a simple question.

Thanks
Sam.

Welcome to Davescafe. Also it sounds as if you haven't even tried to teach the younger set. High schoolers and adults over here are very different than what you may be used to. Hell, I have a hard time sometimes getting my sixth graders to talk. I can't imagine trying to convince high schoolers to be active on a constant basis.

Also the hours for adults are often split shifts. From 6:30 a.m to 10:30 am and then again from 4-whenever the hogwan closes.

Research YAR!

#1 there are multiple threads about where to teach adults. Try the search function.

#2 you made several grammar mistakes in both of your posts. IF English is your first language, you might be better off with young kids who won't call you out on these.
