Erik asked:


It seems like there is a great deal of negativity at Dave’s ESL Cafe. I’m not sure if that’s just due to the type of personalities that have overrun the website, or if teaching in Korea really is a huge ordeal.

If you have any alternatives to Dave’s, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks!

Outside the classroom if I am approached by a parent should I charge 20,000 won an hour for private lessons. If you are an ESL teacher was is a good price range to charge? I plan on making some money there so any suggestions would be great.
