Teach in Korea: Choosing EPIK vs a Hagwon
Full article: EPIK vs Hagwon | http://grrrltraveler.com/countries/asia/korea/teaching-english/teaching-korea-epik/ Wanna Teach in Korea Resources: http://grrrltraveler.com/so-you-wanna-teach-english-in-korea/ Clips from EPIK Orientation Korean festivals, my Korean school and teacher dinner. Other EPIK vloggers: Tom of @SeoulTee Living in Korea Looking back on my time in Korea, I'm filled with fond memories. There are many things about Korea which continue to dazzle, confound, irritate and me. Overall, I know if it weren't for my own confusion of where I want to be in my work life, I could easily have extended my time there. There's many things which I fell in love with about Korea, from food, Korean culture, the tons of Korean festivals (seems they have one practically every month), my BB cream and beauty care products, technology and the list goes on. It's a relatively safe country with a low cost of living and yet high quality of life. Due to the fact I had a rent free apartment and the cost of living was low, I was able to save over $10,000 of my salary (after expenses and vacation trips), to produce my travel fund for a seven month backpacking trip and more. At the moment, I've still got money in the bank for a couple more trips. . Marrying Korea: Turning from traveler to expat There's a huge difference between travelers and expats. I don't like to say it, but there is. There's many ways to fall in love with Korea if you live there. However, if you asked me if I loved it when I was going through it on a daily basis, I might answer differently. I both, loved it and not. Like the acclimatizing process goes with any country, life in Korea wasn't without its rough bumps (and I've certainly bitched here about those). It was my first year living abroad and although I'm a traveler, who loves the challenge of adapting to foreign cultures, this was my first time doing so on a long-term basis, I didn't have a helpful Korean co-teacher and language barriers pose small frustrations. However, as bad some of my times felt, I still always felt privileged to be living in Korea. I did not regret my experiences one bit. Why I chose EPIK vs a Hagwon I was contracted with EPIK, but I also worked briefly at a hagwon in Seoul. I still prefer EPIK, for many reasons. If you're reading this, then you've probably also already read a handful of rants about hagwons and that some can be shady. Before choosing EPIK, I read a lot of those too. To put everything into perspective, everything is in the luck of the draw in Korea. I've met people who both, loved and hated teaching in a hagwon. Same is true of EPIK. The choice depends on which structure fits best for you. Stable schedule & Accountability Schedule consistency Vacation and Holidays Support, Variety & experiencing the Korean Community Career Advancement Challenging but Rewarding The Pros of a Hagwon Unfortunately, this post favors the EPIK environment. I enjoyed being a part of it and I'm a better teacher because of it. But obviously, there are advantages to working in a hagwon system also, or people wouldn't want to work there. Potentially better salaries Freedom: No 40 hour week Independence Choosing the city you want to be in ====== *LET'S CONNECT!* Official GRRRLTRAVELER Website: http://grrrltraveler.com Facebook: http://facebook.com/GRRRL.TRAVELER Twitter: http://twitter.com/grrrltraveler Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/grrrltraveler Instagram: http://instagram.com/grrrltraveler- published: 22 Apr 2014
