Thanks for advice guys. Seems a pretty mixed bag of opinions!
I did choose the Incheon school in the end as I managed to get hold of the current teacher who I am replacing. A nice long conversation with her made the school sound like a good place to work. I have heard some schools abuse new teachers so I am taking her word and hope it all goes well.
Its a brand new school only 1 month old. Also Apparently its the sort of place where the boss knows all his staff which I will like.
Although my concern is why is she leaving... and her excuse was not all that good. Anyways...... its going to be a gamble either way.
If the alcoholic bit sums you up then please don't come here.
Ye I understand! Perhaps that line is too strong. What I mean to say is I enjoy a drink in the evening and I hope to find a good community to spend time with. This includes sporting activities and hopefully some starcraft.
I will take the job seriously and do the best I can. It is my first real job, so I aim to impress and succeed.
I am a fan of hot weather. I am from England but spent the last two years gap yearing around insanely hot places. I become a more active person in the sun. So the weather in Korea is a disappointment
I hoped Korea was hot but further research shows just how wrong I was! Ive heard Incheon is a fair bit colder but I googled the average weather between Incheon and Busan and didnt see a huge amount of difference.
A beach city would be cool but I also noticed everything seemed very far from the centre.
So now I wait to hear from the school directly to confirm. The recruiter seems to think all is good but I am not so sure
Start date 2nd march. So its time to practice Starcraft and think about gathering teaching materials!
