| haha. I've thought about doing a quickie one just because my school has told me that I would get bumped from 2.0 to 2.2. |
200,000 won a month? My school must be cheap. I'm only getting 100,000 won a month extra for mine...hmm. |

Anybody know? Is a CELTA acceptable instead of a TESOL? (It is the superior qualification, after all).

Since when has CELTA been superior to TESOL?  |
TESOL= teaching english to speakers of other languages
this is an educatational field, not a certificate
CELTA=Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CELTA
you can get one of them at the british council http://www.britishcouncil.org/korea.htm for a couple million won and a grueling month of your time, slugging away at it full time.
the CELTA is the world's most recognised TESOL certificate which is reflected in the hefty tuition. it's worth it not just for the prestige of the parchment but for the skills you will acquire. |

Sadly its largely unknown/unrecognised in korea- although this is changing slowly. |
