Who knows anything about this place? They seem shady to me. I told them what the best time was to call me Monday-Friday and they waited 2 weeks, called me at the wrong time, and I said "no longer interested". The lady even pronounced my last name wrong. I heard some bad stuff about them on here, but I couldn't find the thread. They say you get 5+ weeks of vacation, but really, I think they just add up the Korean holidays and 2 weeks of standard vacay and say it's 5 weeks....yeah, but not 5 whole weeks...

If it's the one in Bundang, it is in a great location and just expanded to a second building. However, I know very little of the school.

i think your talkin about the 1 in Sunae-Dong, Bundang.

Its in a great location.

I think they used to have a few older teachers, and then made the move to a younger workforce.

I live right across the street from the one in Bundang....I know of 1 teacher who works there currently, and he sounded like he liked the place. Most of the class sizes are pretty small, I think he said there was a limit of 6 or 7. You don't have to do much prep work, but he said he likes to do it so he can teach more effectively. Though I don't work there, I am in the same officetel and it's pretty nice here. I've got a nice view of the mountains off in the distance, and the size is about 15 pyung.

Well, i heard a story about another Brown International bracnh where a Korean teacher slapped a foreign teacher. And acting like 5 weeks of vacation is actually 5 whole separate weeks is not very nice. You get 2 weeks off a year and they add up the Korean holidays and call it 5 weeks of vacation.
