If you are an attractive female, be prepared to be set up for failure. As a new staff member, you will likely be paired with the school's bitter, middle-aged female coteacher who clearly hates younger females. She screams at you all day in front of the children, in a mixture of Korean and poor English, aiming to undermine you authority. As a result, the children don't listen to you, which leads to more screaming from her when they misbehave. My attempts to talk to this "teacher," even small talk conversation, just induced wierd, intense condescnding stares and no verbal response from her. The director, Dr. ---, (who seems really sweet at first) treats foreign females like scum and is quick to make you feel uncomfortable and unwelcome at her school. She is close with the screaming jealous middle-aged teacher and will automatically believe any lies this vindictive teacher tells about you in her attempts to sabotage your work performance and run you off.

The video advertising this school, shows multiple native English teachers (NET's) caring for the children in a happy environment. When I showed up, there was only one NET working at Baeum which was a red flag for this schools ability to keep NET's. My advice to this school's management is to hire male teachers only in the future as to prevent the middle-aged teacher's jealousy over young attractive females.

That's trippy. I used to work there. I did two years there, actually.

It used to be a really good school. You'd finish at 2:20 every day and be home by 3:30. There was always an after-school meeting on Thursdays, but no big deal. Apparently, that Dr. that you're talking about used to be the manager, and I heard that she'd have these long, drawn-out meeting where she'd just go around and pick at everyone's faults.

As far as your Korean coworker, I have no idea who that is. They change the teacher assistants quite often.
