    It's nice to see a positive video. I have seen so many "hagwon horror" stories

    Hello thank you for this realistic day in the life. Do you know anything about banyeo-dong area in haeundae? I received an interview for a kindy hagwon job, but I’m unsure if I should accept. Thanks in advance

    Did you get to choose where you were placed? And did you also get to choose the age you were working with? I'm very interested in teaching at a hagwon :)

    • @Sunaynay
      @Sunaynay  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I worked through an agent so I requested the age groups I would want to work with. I had a few interviews, and thereafter decided on the school.

      I have a Korean teacher in my kindergarten classes, but with my older kids I’m alone. I do have Korean mentors who communicate with the parents.

      @Sunaynay  ปีที่แล้ว

      I was at a private Hagwon. Which one are you looking into?

  • @pranalight76
    @pranalight76 ปีที่แล้ว

    You should not be wearing a mask when teaching the kids because they cannot see your mouth move and it muffles your voice which makes it harder to understand the pronunciation of words.

    I'm moving to Daegu in January to teach in igarten chungdahm which I believe is a hagwon? I've seen so many horror stories that honestly I'm extremely scared to now move and I'm debating if I want to go. Is there any advice you can offer regarding this? Do we have to work more than contracted hours or Saturdays... I've seen we don't get national holidays off?

    • @wonderbugone
      @wonderbugone ปีที่แล้ว

      You mean you don't get national holidays off as per your contract? 😦 Or you're just wondering what is standard? National holidays that everyone else in Korea gets off are bare minimum (I don't even know if it would be legal to not get them off...?) and honestly you should also get ~10 days payed vacation too. That's what I have. Also, are you unsure if you work Saturdays? Was that not discussed during the hiring process? Sorry for all the Qs 😅I'm just worried for you because I was in you position less than a year ago haha

      When I applied with Aclipse and found out they only work with three schools called I-garten, April institute and Chungdamm, I was like NOPE after reading other people's experience. Imagine not getting days off on a holiday after being burnt out, not to mention the hard training and how you fail the training you go back home and they don't reimburse the money for the flight. That's tough honestly.😢😢
