I responded with a link to a past LCI thread, in one of your other threads about LCI. Don't be discouraged if you don't get any direct feedback on the school on here, nor any LCI good/bad feedback. LCI has 33 franchises around the country, each managed by their own director who will ultimately set the tone for a good/bad work experience. Across the nation, LCI schools probably employ a total of 30-50 foreign teachers and maybe half or more of those numbers turn over ever year. More often than not, people don't usually get motivated to come online here to talk at length of their job experiences, unless they are pissed. And people with kickass jobs and work environments are usually less inclined to tell Joe Anonymous on the internet about it, to avoid the risk of bringing a bad element into the mix. They'd rather tell their friends back home or around Korea. This is also a contributive factor as to why you may not get good feedback on schools here, as well. So, no news can sometimes prove to be good news, in this regard, but nevertheless, this site is only marginally represented by the teachers in Korea, so the best bet in virtually all cases, is to get on the horn with the current teachers that are there, and specifically the guy whom you are expected to be replacing, and see what their first-hand take is on the operation.
As for Siheung, there's not much on this site, nor on the net, other than:
http://www.shcity.net/english/sub01/sub01_01.asp
As for eslcafe-ites, you can try dropping PatrickSiheung a PM and ask questions, but he's in Canada now and hasn't posted since last fall, so he may not get back to you right away, if at all.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help. |
