|
|
In the face of popular opinion it seems that Gyeonggi-Do contracts are getting BETTER not worse. Read xox posting his contract. It's pretty much the same as the ones we signed last year, except it says that teaching camp hours will be limited to 40 hours per school VACATION.
And there is nothing about staying until 8 PM on Fridays or any such other nonsense. |

A. That's not a GEPIK contract, which is what everyone (including myself) is fed up with.
B. It's for middle/high schools. As far as I know, all of the GEPIK teachers taught elementary. |

The contract is exactly the same as mine, except for that one clause I mentioned above. And the entity he signed with is the same one I did. It could be that Gy-Do is seeing the light and throwing a few bones the teachers way, could it not? |

I doubt it that they have seen the light! |

It's a one-contract, two-systems approach. Those who signed with GEPIK schools, using the GEPIK contract, got a raw deal. Those who signed with non-GEPIK schools, using the GEPIK contract as a template, have been doing just fine, apparently. |

Yep. Doing fine here because I was hired independent of GEPIK or EPIK or any of those agencies. |

And let that be a lesson to all you noobs out there. As mentioned in another thread, steer clear of GEPIK. |

When you say you were hired independently, do you mean by a recruiter?
I'm just curious.... |
