Hi all

I've just been offered a job with both MoonKkang and EPIK. Moonkkang seems pretty reputable (for a Hagwon) whilst public schools seem to have credibility here. Salary and perks are similar so was wondering what everyone thought.

Whatever your opinion I would be very grateful..it all helps Smile

Do you know where EPIK would place you? You could end up working at four different schools out in the sticks.

Mook Kang does have a good reputation for a hagwon. If I were you I'd try to decide whether a hagwon or PS context would suit you better. Are you OK with large classes? Do you want to go somewhere with a built-in foreign community or would you prefer only working with Koreans? There are a lot of factors to consider.
