Ive been in Korea for around seven weeks now with GEPIK. I would like to go to the next orientation and want to make sure my school organises this for me. Does anyone have an idea when the next one is?

O will definitely happen but nothings decided yet. 09 Mar intake went to theirs in June. 3 months after they began teaching. Tell us what area you are at and you'll be inundated with people wanting to help you.

Not that the orientation will actually teach anything, nor be helpful.
You will go. The school usually doesn't give an option about that. Rolling Eyes

I disagree. The Orientation is very helpful, if only as a way to meet other foreign teachers in your area. So you can make friends, and also meet people who can email you a game or an activity some time when you're short of ideas for a chapter. As for the more ordered activities...where you stand depends on where you sit...so your mileage may vary.
