I agree with RT - ESL discussion

I agree with RhenoThai. Why would anyone in his right mind sign a contract BEFORE arriving at his new school? Most schools REIMBURSE for plane rides anyway, so I believe waiting to sign a contract until you know all is as advertised is prudent. Signing a contract when you are halfway around the world is just asking for trouble in my book. What happens if you sign a contract then find out your 'single room' is a single room with one bath you share with three other guys? Hey--the contract said single room.

This has to be a joke - ESL discussion

Could foreigners be lynched, thrown in to Jail, beaten up, deported, thrown into the sea, worked to death, live in rat-infested hell holes, treated like capitalist aliens?

Eeeeeeeeeek! If that is the case who wants to go there? Somebody enlighten me, I am an ignorant soul.

Come on now...this guy has to be joking.

Hi! Just wanted to point that Korea is not that bad to teach in. Before I came here, I was also worried about all the horror stories. Yes sometimes people have bad experiences here, you just have to be careful about the school you will work for and do your research. It's not that bad, I am really enjoying it here. If you have any questions, maybe I can help you out - email me.Good Luck!

Great Sage Equal of the Heavens is here to enlighten you - ESL discussion

If you are one of the following:

a) Spoiled brat rich kid just out of college used to having everything your own way.
b) A drunk who likes to get into brawls.
c) A drug user of any kind.
d) Stupid enough to sign a contract from half-way around the world without doing any research into the company or person you are signing for.

Then you can be pretty sure you'll have a tough time of it here.

If you fail to meet any of the above requirements you'll probably find it tough but rewarding.

If you come from a very poor country where you made barely enough to cover costs, let alone save anything, you'll probably love it.
