I was wondering what it was like teaching here?

I used to work at Gwanak English Village, and apart from some small things I had a good time.

Anyone have experience working at other camps?

from what I always heard it was pretty bad. I wouldn't suggest it.

I don't know why everyone always says they are terrible. I worked at one and it was fine. It's a lot different than a regular hagwon. I can't say better or worse because I've only ever worked at an English Village. Always paid on time, a lot of overtime opportunities, but never forced overtime. I got to work with Korean Military "students" a few times.

They are all pretty much the same though so I'm not sure why you are asking.
