Was told yesterday that I have to attend a workshop with my co-teacher on Thursday after teaching most of my regular classes. So I have to work from 8 am to 6:40 when the workshop ends. It's not too terrible, but I have a standing date with alcohol at 7 every Thursday.

Does anyone else have to attend this? What is it about?

Do you teach middle or elementary (or even high) school?

I teach High school, I also have one of those newfangled "specialty" co-teachers if that helps.

Sounds like it is a high school thing. Since my husband and I work 2 different levels, we often have different "field trips." And, yeah, they are often scheduled to end later than your regular day....though I have thus far found that we got back earlier than they said every time.

Hope it's not too painful! Confused

I was told the same thing by my co-teacher yesterday. I have to attend some kind of teachers workshop...

I'm teaching middle school though!

I heard it is from 3-6:40 and it is somewhat close to Bangbae Station on line two. I guess there is a shuttle bus from the station if you aren't in a car.
