I Should have taught epic. I worked in a private language school. Lesson planning time? I got to school at 8:50, classes started at 9. I had classes non stop till lunch, supervised lunch (if the kids finished lunch on time I got a 1/2 hour break but usually more like 10 minutes) and then afternoon classes till 5. 2 days a week and on Saturdays I had private tutoring with 2 sisters. Lesson planning time would have been nice.
Damn it sounds like your place really just worked you to the bone. I felt very lucky with the amount of time EPIK gave me for lesson planning and whatnot
Thank you for your videos. I’m currently binge watching 😅. Would you need a laptop of your own since you alternate between two schools or that’s provided ?
Not sure if I can make a whole video about it but I can try to answer your questions here. If you want to exchange money TripleA has good deals but you can also do it at your bank or the airport. If you mean like knowing how much won is in dollars I use an app called Unit Plus. It helps me convert multiple things, not just currency. As for knowing if you're paying too much, honestly you'll just have to shop around and compare the different prices of things. Hope this helps!
I just use PPT. The schools should give you a laptop or computer to work on and it should have the basic programs on it. The school also give you the textbook and usually tells you which lessons to teach
I've actually never thought about it. It could totally work though if there are certain songs that match up with what you have to teach from the textbook!
They do it for a bunch of different reasons. There’s no Korean language requirement to be an English teacher so they want to make sure at least one adult speaks Korean. They’re also there in case a student gets hurt, they help with discipline and helping individual students who are struggling. Also for legal reasons; if anything were to happen in the classroom (a student gets hurt, fighting, a parent/student accused the teacher of something, etc) there’s another teacher there as a witness.
In Korea they refer to middle school students as 1st grade middle schoolers or 1st graders for short. 1st grade middle school = 7th graders 2nd grade = 8th graders 3rd grade = 9th graders
That one might be a bit difficult since each school has different textbooks and language skills (reading, writing, speaking, listening) they want you to teach
Some resources you can use in your classrooms are: Kahoot, Bamboozle (I think that's how you spell it) and lyricstraining.com. They are all online game websites that have all kinds of English skills. The lyrics one has popular songs at 4 different levels and they have to insert the missing words as they are listening to the songs. On the Kahoot one they sign in by using a code that the site provides once you've chosen the skill and the game. This way you can kind of assess their progress in the specific skills because they have to answer individually, and at the end the site shows the students' performance. Hope you and they like them.
"You should punish him." Hahaha! This is why I love teaching older kids/teens - they have such a crazy sense of humour.
These kids really crack me up sometimes
I really love this video. It's in-depth. The children are so cute and funny. 'Are you a stalker?' 😂😂😂
This was great, loved all these examples were hilarious!! The follow him home got me, being mad at your boyfriend, this is gold haha 🤣🤣
The slapping kimchi across his face bit is from a funny popular Korean skit 😂
Seeing two schools side to side is really interesting. 선생님 감사합니다!
what a fun game :) Your classes seem like a good time :)
Thank you! :)
Why are you split between two schools in Busan? It’s a large city.
where did you get the games from, I really like the Apop and Kpop game, it looked really fun
waygook.org This website has TONS of really good games
@@busanbasics247 okay. I've been on that site, I need to create and account, I will see if I have to pay for it when I do
Thanks for this video! I’ve been placed in Busan this year for epik spring 2022!
That’s awesome! Congrats!!

Thanks so much for watching! Both of my schools provided me with a laptop
I love your videos btw!
hi, i was wondering if you could do a video on converting to a different type of money currency/how to know whats too much when buying?
Not sure if I can make a whole video about it but I can try to answer your questions here. If you want to exchange money TripleA has good deals but you can also do it at your bank or the airport.

what are you using to do lesson plans?? Does the school provide anything to help with that???
I just use PPT. The schools should give you a laptop or computer to work on and it should have the basic programs on it. The school also give you the textbook and usually tells you which lessons to teach
@@busanbasics247 okay, good to know thank you
Odd question, but have you ever thought about playing "schoolhouse rock"? At least the grammar songs?
I've actually never thought about it. It could totally work though if there are certain songs that match up with what you have to teach from the textbook!
do you have to come up with your own lesson plans?
I do but I’m given a textbook to base my lessons off of
나도 한 16년전에 원어민 선생님 1명, 영어 선생님 1명 들어와서 수업들은 것 같은데 옛날 생각난다.
내 고향 부산에서 당신은 정말 훌륭한 영어 선생님 이군요. 아름다운 영상에 진심으로 감사드립니다. 당신에게 늘 행운이 함께 하시길 바랍니다.
감사합니다 😊!
Why is there always two teachers in the classroom??????
They do it for a bunch of different reasons. There’s no Korean language requirement to be an English teacher so they want to make sure at least one adult speaks Korean. They’re also there in case a student gets hurt, they help with discipline and helping individual students who are struggling.

is this an all-girls middle school???
I used to teach at an all girls school but my 1st school is actually co-ed but they separate the boys and girls
@@busanbasics247 got it
you said you worked at a middle school, but then you said 1st and 3rd grade?? Those kids don't look 3rd grade
In Korea they refer to middle school students as 1st grade middle schoolers or 1st graders for short.
1st grade middle school = 7th graders
2nd grade = 8th graders
3rd grade = 9th graders
Could you please do a video on effective and non-effective lessons for certain age groups 🙏
That one might be a bit difficult since each school has different textbooks and language skills (reading, writing, speaking, listening) they want you to teach
Oh that's completely understandable...then maybe teaching tips and tricks? Thank you for replying!
