Posted today but the job starts a month ago. They're looking for someone ASAP.

Funny that they have a picture of my officetel on the GEPIK banner ad

That's attractive cash, but I bet it's only 6 million for 200 hours. For ten milion, I would be all over it.....except of course it's worknplay..

Just because it says 6 to 10 million, it doesn't mean that on payday you'll get yer just due.

It could be a bait and switch.

Yeah, I saw that ad and wondered what was up with it.

I think one of the above posters said it correct with 6 million for 200 hours. However, that's paying out 3.6 million for 120 hours a month which I think a lot of people would be willing to do given the crappy job offers usually out there.

As for the 200 hour thing... hmmm, that sounds a bit too hardcore.

The 10 million won thing... hmm, probably they call it a typo or say you need qualifications that in fact they know that no one will ever have here.

At 200 hours I wonder what their estimated burnout time per teacher is?

The advertisement also says that the working hours are 17:00-23:00 Monday through Friday and 9:00-15:00 on Saturdays.

That only adds up to 144 hours per month. I imagine that the 200 hours figure only happens during intensive sessions such as when the students are on their summer and winter breaks.

Well, it seems like they're paying 50K won an hour...not an unheard of salary for SAT/AP prep. Those classes are hard to teach well. Maybe I'll see if they want a p/t teacher.
