Hello,

I've just been offered a wonderful seeming job by KCTY - Korean Center for Talented Youth. The values, benefits, and work ethic seem great.

However, when I googled it, two HORRIBLE teacher reviews came of it - like abuse horrible. These were from a few years ago and I didn't get that impression when I interviewed or read through the school teacher brochures.

I'm still doing more research and have found a lovely description or two.

Have any of you worked there??? What is it like? I have to respond to the contract in a few days, so hoping to get more voices.

Best Wishes! Thank You.

If you are on an F visa, dive right in. If on an E2, do more research.

Even as an employer, I give such advice.

I know nothing of this school but I'm going to guess that it'll over work you, cheat you out of hard-earned won, and treat you like a useless scrub.

Here's a meme to brighten your day.
