South Korean - Kids College. I will be teaching K - 3(?) Unsure.
 
Hello Everyone,
I taught grades 5 and 6 in Thailand for six months. I had 50 kids per class and saw each class only once a week. [I know, I know!] However, it was sorta easy- they just wanted a farang(sp) and I did love my kids.

I wanted to teach smaller classes [12] and make more money [twice what I did in Thailand] So I signed up for a school in South Korea. From what I have read, they are hard core about education- some kids going to school for 14 hours a day! I will be teaching in a hagwon [I hope I lucked out with a good one = Kids College Yeonhee School. Anyone heard of this specific one? I know each are different]

From those who have taught in South Korea, how advanced should I expect my Kindy, 1, 2, and 3s to be? With so many hours at school, I want to make sure I bring things that are not too simple.

Any advice would be much appreciated. [anything from cultural to educational]
Thanks in advance,
Deon
please pm me! thanks!
