Anyone have any experience with this school? I have been talking to them recently. Any help would be helpful.

| I was interviewed for a position there but they never got back to me. Seemed okay, but then they all do at first. I looked them up on the blacklists (which are pretty poor btw) and there wasn't a mention of them. |

Talk to MORE THAN ONE current teacher via e-mail when the boss is NOT watching over their shoulder.
ASK SPECIFICALLY - and get good answers about:
+PAY, overtime (do they pay it or avoid it with creative book keeping).
+CLASSES - how many per day / week / month. How long is a class and +WHAT IS A CLASS HOUR. A contract that says 120 hours can have you doing up to 180 x 40 minute classes (7200 contact minutes) per month for the same money as someone doing 120 x 50 minute classes (6000 contact minutes per month).
+Do they really pay into the pension and national medical?
+Do they do taxes properly or just flat rate you at 3.3 or 5% (illegal but often done - money is usually not remitted to the tax man)
+What is the housing like and what do they pay for? Your free apartment can cost you up to 150k or more won per month in maintainence and other fees (not really free).
+Holidays - when, how, how many and who decides.
Go in with open eyes and be WELL informed.

Blacklists are nearly useless, either out of date information(school name changed), or the teacher that lists them may just be the nutjob that they had to fire. |
