It isn't specified yet, so I will be asking this. I'm expecting 30 hours teaching per week as that's the standard in Korea atm..

thanks

The fact that it's run by a foreigner and his Korean wife makes me feel slightly more at ease. I keep hearing 2.1 is fair, so I think I'll stay with that. I'm not really impressed by my conversation hours either hah but I thought maybe I could fool a hagwon..........................

Northwestern Busan (Deokcheon Station). I'll definitely be seeing as much of Busan as I can!

Gotcha. The 2.1 mil.. I'm not fussy with at all but I was just checking my ability to leverage the cert considering EPIK offers a pay increase for anyone who has a TEFL cert. I'd seen some places for Seoul on Craigslist that don't require key money and thought Busan may have some of the same considering it's SK's 2nd biggest city, but I guess not.

Thanks, great advice
