 |
|
I'm going to be finishing my Master's degree in August, and I'm not really finding any good reason to remain in the west. I'm thinking about coming back to Korea, as I liked living and teaching there. Here are my qualifications:
BA in Music Education
4 years public school teaching experience in the USA
2 years teaching in public schools in Korea
MSc in Digital Library Management
What teaching job do you think I should go for? Do you think I'd be able to get a decent uni gig with those qualifications? I wouldn't say no to a job outside the teaching field either, especially something related to my master's. |

There is absolutely NO integration of music with ESL besides cheesy songs and those horrendous recordings on the CDs that come with books.
If you have a master's you could try for a uni job. |

| I was mainly asking about recommendations for jobs in Korea. It's funny, I never thought I'd miss it as much as I do! |

That's not true. I taught a guitar class in English at my school in Ulsan. It was a huge success. |

That's NOT what I was talking about, and I don't think the OP was either. |

Um, I am the OP. |

I legitimately laughed out loud.
As for a decent Uni gig...I'd say yes. I've seen quite a few of my friends land uni jobs with much skinnier cv's than that. |
