I don't hate anyone dog. What I do find funny though is that the number of positions was not disclosed by Kavi and only THE INDIANS ARE COMING! What is this scare whitey week?
With those measily numbers it seems more like a political stunt to satisfy a visiting diplomat than a genuine effert to obtain Indian-English...
Dear Kavi, show me a link or show me the program details but unless you have proof I'm going to concider this rumor control central.. http://www.epik.go.kr/ has no word of this anywhere on it's website. You'd think they would, wouldn't you?

I'm halfway through my masters in Language Education and TESOL from Indiana University. The program is solid. The courses are comprehensive and it will definitely improve your teaching. It won't give you licensure, but it will give you the necessary coursework and knowledge for both the Praxis exam and probably a temporary teaching cert (depending on state/country).
hey there, I found it really hard to find a hospital that gives travel vaccines in Busan. I eventually went to the Pusan National University Hospital in Yangsan (last stop on green subway line) to get my tetanus and hep. shots. If you find the same problem I did, take a korean friend with you and head to Yangsan. You shoudnt need an appointment but it would be better to call ahead (ph...
This is going to be "wait and see" scenario I think.
Saying that, I note that someone is selling a Hakwon on this site, and with the following comment.
""It's currently running a small loss. (Income less than expenses). So you need to be able to cover this loss until you either increase student numbers or reduce expenses.""
Hal....I am an old timer also and I respect what you say but it isn't going to happen. Koreans can only handle white people teaching their kids and that's the end of the story. I've been waiting 15 years for the Filipinos and Indians and whomever to come and take my job from me.
Really, this thread is as old as that. I heard about this 1995 and...
You know I have no idea. It airs this Sunday at 7. James Turnball from the Grand Narrative will do the first 30 minutes, talking about gender roles in Korea and such and then I'll be doing the second segment. Jeff of KoreaBridge will be interviewing us and then there will be a post show live on KoreaBridge webcast thingy at 8 I think.
Ahh LBS, if only it were so. Us foreigners these days don't do as well as we used to, my expenses no longer even stretch to a good meal these days.
To be perfectly frank with most of the threads here, I really understand what the feelings are, and why. We ( the marine industry ) went through the same series of emotions and thoughts many years ago, all over the world. Salaries...
There you get a bunch of free videos taken from an actual class happening here, taught by a Canadian. When he came here (in 2003), he was in the same position as you and studied himself to a position...
There's a travel clinic in DongA Hospital in Gudeok. I'm not sure if they speak English but they have a foreigners desk, and they will go in with you to translate. Alternatively, I think you can assume that most major hospitals have the same service.

Angel,
I find your comments equally laughable, as will everyone else you have insulted.
""To pretend you really know anything about this, is laughable""
So ONLY YOU have grasped the finer points of the exercise. How so very observant and intuitive you are.
Have you ever considered a career in the United Nations???

Incidentally does anyone else constantly read the title of this thread as "I hate Filipino teachers"

You are correct, A whopping 12 of them in fact! 1-2 twelve of them. I will worry for my job when it's 1200.
