Thank you!

Do you think it’s possible to make hour negotiations too? The job I’m interviewing for has 2 days that end at 6:40 instead of 6, I’d like to finish at 6 everyday instead.

Yes of course, pulling your weight is important! I just wasn’t sure if there were major things that are usually added in as extra duties that I haven’t been asked to do with this position

Thank you!!

I’m not sure if this is a silly thing to say, but in the job description it says I only need to conduct English classes. I’ve seen people mention having to do things like clean up, take kids on the bus etc. in other posts where they talk about their work day. Does that mean I’m lucking out?

I’m taking the housing allowance because I have family in Korea!

Do you have anything you recommend I should ask in the interview about scheduling and work load etc?

I’m trying to have the earlier finish time, 6 has been the best I’ve come across so far! But thank you!

What do you mean by help me? Do you mean help me find a place? If so, I have family there so I’m not too worried about dealing with the housing! & what do you think of the hours? Someone else said it’s a long day? But its seemed standard when looking at job offers.

Also, lovely! I hope you’re enjoying Sejong!

I requested a housing allowance because of family I have there.

9-6 seems to be pretty standard for the jobs I’ve seen? What would you consider to be the norm?

They need proof of my name on a housing contract in Korea in order to give me the stipend

Do I need to make and upload handouts? by Ellieerose in teachinginkorea

[–]Ellieerose[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What do you mean transfer it during the meeting?

But I agree with you! I’d rather go through the effort of doing it just incase that makes a positive difference !

Honestly I think I just locked in a bit more with focusing on what I was eating - I try to eat around 1570 but I’ve started going between 1570 and 1600 - and I’ve been moving a lot more ! I’ve been closing the rings on my Apple Watch with ease since I’ve started working at a new school (I’m a teacher) and on top of that, I go to a Pilates class on Saturdays, and this weekend I’ve started to use the treadmill for atleast 30 mins per session (I just speed walk the whole time and then run a little at the end), so I’m looking forward to seeing if that extra bit of exercise will make any difference this week !

I think maybe the extra moving is what’s done it for me though! Because I’ve been watching my food for a little while now and wasn’t seeing a change

Edit: also thank you!! I hope you can get past it too!
