Depends on where back home is. For example, if home is Sicily I can think of plenty of skills you could pick up in Korea that would be useful to many employers there. Russia as well. |

Ah...good topic.
I have been ruminating over signing up for the Microsoft Virtual Academy. I have been reading mixed reviews, regarding its validity on a resume. That put a partial could on my ambition, regarding that matter...especially since it is free.
Does anyone have an opinion on that matter or actually taken a course?
Or, are there other online courses (at a relatively, reasonable price) that are not only practical but useful in terms of acquiring new skills that are actually marketable?
Thank you:) |

No. Home is not Italy or Russia for people who were granted a visa to teach English in Korea. |

I've met a Russian teaching English in Korea as well as a couple of Frenchmen and a Colombian. They were all "granted a visa." |

Congratulations on your imaginary experience. They are not granted E2 instructor visas because of their nationality. Maybe they are married to Korean spouses and have long term residence visas if your internet argument experience even happened at all. As I said, they were not granted visas to teach English in Korea. |

As I said, they were granted visas. One was a full-time instructor at Korea University and the other was the director of the program at Kyunghee. Another was a full-time hagwon instructor.
What's imaginary here is your proclaimed omniscience. |
