School Update

I'm sorry I have not updated in awhile but I have been rather lazy of late and increasingly busy.

Public school in Korea finishes classes for winter break in a few weeks which would mean I have some time off if I worked at a public school. However, I work at a Hogwon so I actually have more work because all those students who are not in public school get put in Hogwon's by their parents (There is some Korean lifestyle for ya). Mys school has been advertising aggressively, we have small posters all around Gee-san-dong (educational district) with two large banners in front of our school and on the outskirts of the district (*see picture*, which is in front of my school). Today I had to present of Demo class to my coworkers and boss on how I plan to structure and teach a T.E.P.S class (Korean created English proficiency test). It went well, but they informed me every day, now excluding Wednesday, I have to teach an extra hour and a half and Ill be adding every week with an additional hour and a half to be added once public school is out.

Shit I thought my kids were absent today but they were just a half an hour late so I have to teach for an hour and a half right now shit.....

Ok I'm back and just to remind everyone here is a list of all the different types of class I teach...

1) Children's conversation class - 2 students -Hour and a half

(Monday and Wednesday)

2) Adult conversation class- 4 students, 3 ajimas (older women) 1 college -Hour and a half

(Tuesday and Thursday)

3)Basic Sentence Structure aka. Steps 2 - 4 elementary school student - 45 minute class (Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday)

4) Intermediate Sentence Structure aka Now 3 - 2 elementary school students - 45 minute class (Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday)

5) Advanced T.E.O.F.L (English proficiency test) - 1 college student - Hour and a half

(Monday and Thursday)

6) T.E.P.S. Listening - 3 middle school students and will increase soon. -Hour and a half

(Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday)

I can't complain about my hours because I don't teach as many hours as other teachers but I'm not allowed to leave work (I just watch movies and listen to music)

I'm almost done with work but I promise to write more in the next week where I will be talking about some very interesting events that have happened in the previous month, which are as follows....

-Attending a 1 year old Korean Kids bday extravaganza (think 100 Koreans where I was the only foreigner present)

-Night out with some hot Korean babes (looooooooooong night but great)

-Screen Golf Tournament

and much more... oh Yeah!
