Teaching is a conquest in Korea
Either conquest or be conquered in the institute (henceforth, Hustle or Be Hustled) Our summer intensive session has been a pounding on the body/mind/voice, tremendous efforts in 44+ hours spent mainly teaching. Of course, spare moments in the office are used to speed-prepare for the 10 daily classes, 4 hours in the morning, and 8 more on MW and Fridays back-to-back. Tuesdays and Thursdays I add another 8 hours of work...Overtime Overtime Overtime, uh oh! No paid overtime, no union, nobody with the nerve to complain about it either. Ouch! Democracy is only a fairy tale in the world I work in. Tis' Tis' ^^++ I'll keep my chin up and try to enjoy more classes...the next job will be much better! But hard work will pay off in professional teaching experience abroad, a salary, and a life I could only have dreamed of years ago. ^^++ Korea is an excellent adventure, a challenge, never easy, but a very rewarding place live/work!
