To be honest, I don't blame them.

Most schools that I have ever worked at kept photcopies of at least my passport on file and usually a copy of my ARC as well.

I would get an noterized copy of your pasport and degree and frame and hang them in your school over your desk ...

I am not joking ... The KG is on the warpath ...the and the forewarned is the forearmed ...


Hardly. This issue is just a speck on the overall education dilemma that grips students, mothers, and the MoE. There's a long list of other pertinent stuff that the MoE has to deal with, before it gets to the thorny hiring toothpicks of the ESL industry. Such as the unfair testing for university entrance requirements, plus the cookie-cutter educational programs that exist in elementary/middle/high school of all subjects, which curbs development of advanced students and overlooks the special needs of others. The students and parents point the finger at the MoE, and the MoE points the finger at the opposition party in legislative assembly for gridlocking issues, and nothing gets done. The warpath is stuck in a blame glame, and it's been like this before and after the ES and Konkuk debacles. I'll see you guys next year when we're talking about the same 'day of reckoning' stuff.

Teacher pants down, a students mother feeling the image of a Canadian flag to see if that's a real tattoo on teacher's butt, or one of those stick on tattoos.

I wasn't to keen on this, either, but I was going to let it slide until you did this:

My passport I'm not to sure about showing.


Now, I want to see your degree, to.


Ok, ok. I know my spelling and grammar on here is bad. I'm very lazy about that stuff on this board. Trust me my English in the classroom is much better.

Gotcha! I don't think that framing your a copy of your degree and putting it up in your office is a bad idea. Doctors do it, don't they? As for the passport and ARC, it's up to the school to head the parents off at the pass at that one. These mothers aren't cops, just presumptuous old biddies.

Maybe the OP could ask to see a copy of the family hojeok to make sure that the kids actually belong with those parents.

that was funny. it made me chuckle.

Now my boss has a copy of my degree and passport, with passport number scribbled out, in her office. The whole thing is a little silly, I think, but its easier to just roll with it.

You don't see your mistake, do you? "Should of taught" isn't proper usage.
