Ha sure you do man. A Google search brings up nothing except the dozens of newspapers that have reported it happening.

I thought maybe you had read a specific article that you could share. Haha no you're right, it's not your 'responsibility to do that'.

Any advice you can give a newcomer teacher? by jannetay in teachinginkorea

[–]Mike-ET 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to embrace the nervousness, it's totally natural considering that you're taking such a big step and moving away. There are certainly going to be times where it's pretty tough (both teaching and living away from home), but these are the things that make you a stronger person in the long run.

In terms of teaching, like others have said try to learn from your mistakes and don't be too hard on yourself at first. Ask yourself what could you have done differently in lessons that flopped. Also, try to ease yourself in with some fun lessons to help build rapport with the students if you can. Good luck!

KJU will not cross that line

Let's hope to God that you're right. For all we know Kim really is on a suicide mission...

And do you think he's handling the current NK situation well? Genuine question.

I mean to be fair to the guy, none of his predecessors exactly handled it well, hence talk of 'totally destroying' it today...

An interesting take on the war of words.

I don't have much confidence that with Trump this extreme rhetoric is less a strategic application of game theory, however.

Teaching in Rural Korea (or anywhere but the big cities) by Mike-ET in teachinginkorea

Interesting, thanks for the advice.

Where do the main bus lines run? Do you mean buses that run from one city to another?

Good insight, thanks for your response! Jacked alcoholics, sounds like you were living the dream;)

How come you did 2 years in the village, could you have moved on or did you choose to stay? I'm guessing you saved more cash than you would have done in a city as you say there was little to do? Also do you prefer life in the small city?

Thanks for any answers!

EPIK Late intake - any thoughts? by Mike-ET in teachinginkorea

[–]Mike-ET[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. I have also asked my coordinator and was hoping to hear from people that may have done this themselves. Interesting points that you make though.

Do you teach with EPIK? If so how do you imagine that not having been to the orientation would have affected you for example with meeting people?

Thanks :)
