Ive been here for almost 7 months now, and Im really ready to learn more about being a better teacher. I am debating whether to stay here another year or not (here in Korea), and I feel Im becoming somewhat stale in my classes. I am reading a book, but I really like learning in classrooms or listening to others speak. Plus, Im somewhat shy and this atmosphere is a good way to meet others with like minds!

Does anyone have any information about upcoming workshops or lectures regarding teaching in Korea (Seoul and Suwon areas)??

Thanx!
