1. What are you thoughts on teaching through SMOE? Past experiences? Housing?

2. When teaching elementary classes in China, books are provided that you teach out of. You can also do other things to make the class more interesting, but having some type of base to work with is important. Do Korean public elementary schools provide this for foreign teachers?

Thanks

1. TONS of info on previous threads and in the FAQs.

2. Yes, they give you books, most teachers can do other things, it varies with the school you are placed at.
