I think I felt more compelled to dress up at my hagwon because, well, first of all, it was a business, but also I was a new teacher and younger than most of my students. It was probably a form of compensation. If I were teaching adults now (and had the choice of what I wear), I'd probably dress down a bit more.

Yeah, at this place it wasn't required that I dress up, and the boss didn't seem to care much either way. I think I was compensating a bit there as well, esp. since they sent me out to company classes.

What group are you teaching now?
