I just got a job offer from this school, I am considering it, but I thought I would ask if anyone had any positive or negative feedback for me before I sign on the dotted line.

THanks!!

READ the contract VERY CAREFULLY.

A fresh off the boat, green as grass newbie at our PUBLIC school signed her contract and she gets 2.1 mil for 22 classes of 40 minutes per week and 20k per extra class to a max of 28.

Total time in the classroom is (28 classes * 40 minutes) = 18:40.

Salary for that class load = 2.58 mil per month + benefits...
rent free - unshared apartment,
50/50 medical (and 1.5% is too low for the national plan so you should be careful about YOUR new contract),
pension (50/50 contributions),
airfare,
4 weeks annual holidays + national holidays off with pay
1 month pay on completion of her contract
15 days paid sick leave...

At SLP you get to work 21 * 80 minute classes = 28 full hours per week = 10 hours more time in front of your class for 500k less money per month. Couple that with your 2.5 hours per day of required prep time and you are over 40 hours per week in the hakwon for 20% less money.

SLP still = Slave Labor Program.
