Hi guys,


I'm already in Korea, staying with family, and all the public school positions currently being offered to me are totally crappy. I want to take a temp teaching job until GEPIK's new school year starts.


Are there temporary teaching positions available in Korea (April through August/September)? They all seem to be one year contracts :/

that would depend largely on YOUR visa status.

F4 visa = find a job, work till aug. and quit.
Tourist stamp = not likely (at least not legally)

They can't do anything.... they are not your sponsor.

Find a job... work as long as it is convenient and quit when it suits you (preferably after payday).

How can they blacklist you? You are employed as a Korean. Does every Korean get blacklisted if they quit a job.

Get a job/jobs (two part times pay more than a full time...hint hint) then quit. If you get two decent gigs 50k an hour or more you'd be a fool to go to epik/gepik or any of those other random letter companies.
