| I am returning to teaching in Korea. About the same salary as in HK but no crazy expensive rent. Going to further my education from abroad with a masters degree or two. Get my US teaching license and see where that takes me. Happy for a new beginning in Korea. My first experience teaching was in Korea back in 2008. |
GENO123 will be along shortly to post arguments in opposition to this idea and try to persuade you otherwise. |

what studies? If you are gonna drag up a thread that has been dead nearly a decade, at least throw up something to support the claim.
on a positive note, three weeks till I'm a "true" EFL teacher! |

Being over 30 is important because that is when you can lay claim to being a loser, which is a core part of EFL! (I jest I jest)
Oddly enough I remember a Korean friend saying something like that. He said young people coming over for a year or so is one thing, but when he saw someone who was middle-aged teaching English here he viewed them as losers (with an exception if they are married to a local, in which case they had a reason to be in Korea). |
