I was referring to the comment that mentioned the influence this will have on the hakwon industry --- as parents seek other places for the kids to go besides staying home.
Hakwons will seek to increase revenue by adding Saturday classes. More hakwon workers will have to work Saturdays.
And if the downsizing in public school jobs keeps going, along with the continuing poor global economy, it would not be surprising to see hakwons go back to shared housing.
Saturday classes and shared housing were the norm (in hakwons) not too long ago (10 years or less). |
Then don't work for a hakwon...problem solved.
As for the downsizing in PS jobs...upgrade your qualifications so that you have more to offer than the average applicant. There ARE P.S jobs out there that will pay for that...and no they are not as rare as certain posters on Dave's make them out to be.
Or get certified back home and go for an international school here or back home. Or move to China.
There are tons of opportunities beyond hakwon jobs both in and out of Korea. I just don't get the doom-and-gloom scenarios. |
