Hey everyone,
At my school the computer that they have given me to use is a Windows XP PC. I can get to websites in English fine, but all of the menus, Microsoft Word, Power Point, etc are all in Hangul. Is there a way for me to change the language on the computer? No one at my school seems to know how to do this and I am just met with blank stares and am told "the other foreign teachers used it ok". I'm supposed to be lesson planning and typing things up, so if anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!!! |

Ask your co-teacher (if you are at a public school) to get the IT guy (he comes around about once every week or two) to install ENGLISH windows and English MS-office. The education office supplies them and they are available to you.
If you are at a hagwan you are stuck - sorry.
