Anyone heard of this school? I assume they are a typical private language school teaching kids-adult. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I can't help you with specifics on the school. The following questions were PM'd to me by another forum member who has contributed countless times in this forum. These questions are worth asking employees at the school via e-mail.

=Will they prepay your ticket over? If you are being hired here or have to do a visa run do they cover ALL the costs or just airfare? (A visa run will set you back 200k won + airfare).

=Do they pay on time?

=Do they pay overtime or avoid it with creative book keeping?

=How many CLASSES per week NOT how many teaching hours per week?

=Do they pay into national medical and pension? Do you have your booklet from medical and did you get your statement from pension last October?

=Vacations, when do you get them, who decides when you get them. Do you get blocked vacations or just a day here and there?

=How is the housing? Is there shopping close by?

=What do you dislike about working/living at that particular hakwon?
