Awesome, thanks for compiling that. Though it seems like most people work 20-25 and the people who work over REALLY work over and throw off the numbers.

So for my upcoming job I will be teaching 25 minute classes from 12:20 to 7ish. This seems like it will be difficult to teach that short of classes. I've been teaching, the standard 40-minute classes for the past year and even then it sometimes felt short. Has anyone had any experience with this?

I'm kind of curious as to what other hagwon teachers' schedules look like.

At my current hagwon, I teach 58 classes per week, M-F. Each class is 30 minutes long, w/ no breaks in between classes.

I get 30 minutes of prep time from 2-2:30pm when I come in for the day, a 30 minute dinner break from 5:30-6pm, and then a 30 minute break either from 6:30-7pm or 9-9:30pm on alternating days. I'm done by 10pm every night.

I don't think my schedule is all that bad, but I feel as though I'm teaching a lot of classes compared w/ other hagwon instructors (all of my friends work for PS's, so I can't really compare).


You are not teaching.
