Go to Ewha - very communicative. The teacher only talks about 20% of the time.

Forget the books - they need a method. The way I was taught at SNU was no different to the way they teach their own middle school kids. Teacher talks all the time, students are supposed to shut up and listen. The 'Test' - their ultimate focus - was multiple choice - and they didn't even change it from semester to semester. And even if you failed it you could still move up a level if you really insisted. A mad system that only works because you are in Korea and can (have to) step out of the classroom to practice.


Sounds like most hagwons. If a mother really wants a level up, they get it. In protest, when I did my level up/down recommedations last time, I marked no one to go up.
