Hi,
I'm a gyopo who has been offered two jobs teaching in Korea.
One is with a hagwon at over 40 hrs a week in Busan. Another is a public school in a mid-size town (Daejon). The hagwon pays better but the hours are very long. The hagwon has an excellent reputation from what I can tell. The Daejon has regular teaching hours 9-5. A third option is just to "throw the dice" and start teaching out of my own office.
If you could choose between the three options, which would it be? Is the third option actually the best in terms of potential income and satisfaction?
I have a huge amount of teaching experience and speak Korean, so those are not issues.
Does any one have relevant experiences to relate? Thanks in advance. |
