If ONLY theyd devote one of those silly workshops to the korean teachers teaching YOU the korean language instead of you listening to one of your teachers tell you about the latest news story they found fascinating, itd go a long long way to not only acclimatizing us to korea, but also would give most of us the tools we need to handle the more simple things like bus timetables or schedule changes and the like on our own.


The Korean teachers would probably be as bad at teaching you Korean as You obviously are at teaching them English so nobody would win again. Laughing

Me, too. Nearest subway to me is about two bus rides and 45+ minutes away.

You consider 45+ minutes by bus, with a transfer, to be "local"?

I'm not an idiot, I know not every teacher in Korea lives near a subway station. That wasn't my point. . .


I consider this line

Access to a local subway station is possibly not important? Can even one teacher in Korea say this? .


to be wholly erroneous and both I and another poster pointedly refuted it.

So there's your answer. Yes, there are loads of teachers that can say precisely that.

Anyway, glad I could break that down for you. Any more questions, just ask.
