| I'm starting from scratch. Are all music hagwons pretty much the same? Is there an especially effective way to learn piano? |

I have a music degree and I could basically teach up to about grade 5 - Piano isn't actually my instrument, Paper is - but it's illegal for me, and everyone else teaching here, to get any other source of income.
As I'm sure you already know. But may as well make others reading aware. |

I am fairly certain that foreigners giving other foreigners piano lessons isn't a real big priority with the immigration patrols  I wouldn't sweat it.
At least I don't think the current administration has budgeted that much to go after the infamous, cut throat, foreign piano lesson cartels. That could change though as more and more foreigner networks move up from their Hanon and Czerny exercises to Bach's Minuet in G. Things could really heat up in Seoul when that happens.
Meanwhile, always demand to see your piano teacher's f2 visa. Better safe than sorry.

I found that very funny, other than the cheap sarcasm points which is kind of overused on dave's like a cheap pop progression. But I was more referring to the work. If your boss says no, then it means no.
You could have a boss who decides to visit as the lessons are going on or, like where I'm staying, neighbours hear and see things and inform the school of such things. Then you get fired.
So just find a Korean who speaks English... |

Excellent advice. And when you leave the house, always make sure that you wear a belt AND suspenders, because you never know when your pants might fall down and you will feel secure with the double protection from embarassing mishaps. Better safe than sorry.

If you ever want someone in this CMC to write music to be performed, I'd love to. Simply to keep me on my toes, if nothing else. |
