Someone's full of piss and vinegar aren't they.
I'm going to answer all of your questions in one convenient post.
Max Salary: Doesn't matter.
Why: You're a teacher, you shouldn't be worried about such things.
Grading papers: Doesn't matter.
Why: A teacher puts in as much time as necessary to get the job done right.
Dress code: Like a teacher.
Why: You're a teacher.
After work: Like a normal person whose job is teaching.
Why: You have to be mindful at all times that you're a teacher.
What made me go: I'm a teacher.
Why: See above response. |

I turned down a promotion at the compnay I was working for in the states. Becuase, I was tired of moving every year and I would have been going to a crappy store. So, six months later my supervisor decided to fire me.
My wife to be got me a job teaching English in China and after a couple of year we moved to Korea to teach. |

Well played.
To somewhat answer your question, even though I'm not in SK I can tell you that it's a great place to start teaching abroad if you're considering the lifestyle, because pay is good, living expenses are cheap, and there is a good demand for teachers.
China you get paid less.
Japan you get paid around the same but it costs a lot more to live there
....etc |

But the R.O.K. cried out, I can't hide you
The R.O.K. cried out, I can't hide you
The R.O.K cried out, I ain't gonna hide you guy

I said, R.O.K., what's a matter with you R.O.K.?
Don't you see I need you, R.O.K.?

What made you post these questions on this board?
1. Lack of anything better to do?
2. Enjoy getting in arguments on-line?
3. Trolling for "Anti-English Spectrum"? |
