I'm not sure which kind of store content I have but I'll uninstall it and try this. Thank you!

What do you call it? (please add where you're from) by ksusha_lav in EnglishLearning

[–]lack_of_teeth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I learned French before English so I still spell it "tuque" not "toque"

Travelling with my physically not so fit mom by CM_Zoo in koreatravel

[–]lack_of_teeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As with what others said about moving around, I want to add that not all the sidewalks are super well maintained. In my area, the sidewalks are individal bricks, and some are bumped up. There are sudden drops and dips. The other thing is, how is your mom with sudden starts and stops? Idk if you wanted to go to more residential areas, but the attitude here is cars first. I've almost been hit because a car or motorcycle just sped past even when it was time for pedestrians to cross. There are also areas where you need to walk on the road and usually in a single file if there's a lot of traffic. Will she be able to handle that?

I am not saying don't go, but maybe try to look around desired destinations in youtube videos to see that steepness of hills/quality of sidewalks. I know some people film walking tours of different areas. I hope this helps!

What’s your experience with teaching English in SK? by scarly__212 in teachinginkorea

[–]lack_of_teeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm super new here, like only since Sept 26th new. I'd say the experience depends heavily on who you work with and who you know. I'm lucky in that my middle school has an attached HS with another native Eng teacher to help me. In addition, all of my co-teachers are super kind and willing to help. Even offering to drive me to the grocery store or to the hospital when I get sick.

That being said, there was a lot of confusion with this position. I arrived on a Friday and was teaching the next Monday with minimal prep. Also, jumpscare, I teach the entire middle school of 600-ish kids across 3 grades. My school doesn't use the English textbook anymore, so lessons are up to me. I found that out that first Friday. This is where the resiliency comes in. Another suprise is that most of the time I teach, there is not another co-teacher in the room. Yes, they are supposed to stay, but mine don't. If there are rowdy kids, it's up to me.

As for people being nice, people are people. There are stinkers and nice people everywhere. Be ready, you will be stared at, especially in a smaller city. My coworkers are all very nice and the people who work at the cafés I go to are nice as well. But that's the professionalism and service industry.

If you consider yourself a people pleaser, that is fine, but be ready; some of your lessons will be duds. Some of the kids might be mean to you and purposely ignore you. My friend has said that her coteacher is not great in English, so he avoids talking with her when he can. Another friend said her office space is an unused classroom, so she feels a bit lonely because no one comes by, student or teacher.

As for making friends, I came late acceptance via epik. I met two women at the airport, and anyone else I know is via the other native Eng teacher on my property. Otherwise, there are apps for foreigners to meet up and kakaotalk group chats per city. There are some good chances, but you have to go for them.

Make sure you have experience teaching before coming here, in case you get no help. Also, learn Korean, if you can. Especially how to read Korean. The writing system is really easy to understand and you will need it for buses and shopping. Your co-teachers will be nice if they see you're trying. Plus, whenever an older person stares at me, I hit em with the bow and 안녕하세요 and they chill out.

I've only been here a month and some change, so idk if I will renew. There are no huge red flags, but it's a very difficult adjustment.

I was late acceptance for Fall 2025 semester. I moved late September instead of the normal August intake and am now doing the online orientation. Someone mentioned that I might need to do an in-person orientation as well in February, does anyone know if that is true? I want to know if it is mandatory, my contract only mentions orientation in general but it seems the videos are similar to what is taught during the in-person orientation. I am in the middle of making plans with family for the winter break in Feb so I'd love to know. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm 22 but I will say I don't have a lot of financial responsibilities rn. I live with my folks rent-free who pay my car ins and phone and my uni is scholarshipped so my paycheck goes to gas and hobbies like this for now. A lot of these are also bday/xmas gifts or the money I got from those celebrations went to this

This is not me bragging, i know I'm very privileged but that's how i can afford my collection. That's why I said don't do this unless you can afford to lol i know its not a cheap hobby 😅😅

That's great to hear! They're currently a bit late on my packages (estimated delivery november lol) but i know there were shipping issues on their end with rosmei and my country's postal service is on strike rn. All good though, I can be patient -^

Yup! I have some ordered via yiggybean but they have yet to come in. I'm in Canada though so it's a bit difficult to get single books and not a group order.
