| I bought the English DVD version Microsoft Office 2010 at Youngsan Electronics Market. Easier to write documents in word and to make power points. Sure, it costs some cash, but it lets me avoid headaches with guessing which Korean words mean what. I can do some basic things on the school computer but can edit and change things around using the English version of the program. |

| Also, you can download power point lessons from that way gook site (org). Sometimes, I've done that and used my own English PPT program to edit them to suit my purposes. But to each their own. |

Fantastic. Another jackass. It was an assumption on his part, and an assumption should never be someone's cue to jump in and insult somebody. This has nothing to do with articulation, and everything to do with rudeness.

Something you can't seem to do, and that doesn't give you pause for taking the position or at least motivate you to engage in some training? I find that funny and sad. |
OH MY GOD, YOU MEAN I HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO DO SOMETHING? I am surely doomed. My brain can only handle SO MUCH

I really like to help people and was thinking that I could send you my lesson plan rubric but honestly, it would be too complicated to understand it without an explanation.
If your job requires you to make lesson plans and you don't know how to, I would advise against taking the job right now. Go take a TEFL course and then apply for another teaching job.
If you were in my room next to me now I could easily explain it, but it's just too complicated over the internet. It's something that you really have to be trained how to do properly. It's fairly easy, but you need instruction.
Basically, you have to think of a theme of the lesson. It could be "At the train station" or "My favorite things" or something like that. Then you have to start out with an introduction and a warm-up. You have to teach different sections at different times.. like you can start out with vocabulary. So for example, you teach the vocabulary and then you have a practice activity for them to do after you teach it. Then you move onto listening, or reading, or whatever. It's always teaching demonstration followed by a practice activity. Then at the end you do an activity that combines all of the things together that you just taught. Then you do a wrap-up and end the class. It is important that the students have a lot of talking time and that they are the ones participating most. Your talking time should be very little.
That's my TEFL class in a nutshell. |
Thank you for that quick explanation! (Thank you, as well, times30!) I do have plans to take a TEFL course for this job; I can get a discount through the recruitment agency. |

I have to ask what methodology your find helpful when writing your lesson plan?
What is the purpose of a lesson plan?
Why should a teacher make a lesson plan for each and every class rather than "winging it?" |

Sorry...can't tell you that. But to judge from the first comment I bolded...it looks like you'll fit right into our little community. Welcome to Dave's! 
And to answer your question this is an example of a typical lesson plan
http://strange-lands.com/2010/04/esl-lesson-plan-for-korean-middle.html
if you Google and type in "lesson plans for Korean schools"...you should get quite a few. |
