Anyone have any experience with Sanbon SLP, or Pyeongchon SLP?

I've done my searching and have heard the negative reputation of SLP branches, but search of this board seems to reveal that these two have a better rep. Only problem is those posts are a few years old at this point so if anyone has any recent information it be great.


23 - 80 minute classes. director says hours are from 10am-830pm, which seem like a lot.

Again, thanks for any help!

I can't speak to the SLP issue, but Sanbon and Pyeonchon are great areas, especially if you're right down town/near the subway stop.

The time you have listed is definitely at the upper end of work hours, though. It's right at/above 120. And 120 is a lot. SLP earns their name: Slave Labour Program.

Unless it comes with amazing pay, you probably have options elsewhere.

Sanbon S.L.P. was poorly organised when I taught there in one of their Summer Intensive Camps. However, the then new owner was an alright guy who helped me out in a few ways. I'd work for him in future.

I got 2.6 -tax free-plus a decent studio for teaching 28 classes per week back in 2008. Each class was forty minutes in length. This contract is the worst I've ever read about in my life!!!!!!!!!! It must be under new ownership. DO NOT SIGN WITH SANBON S.L.P!!!
