Corey Brown teaches in Korea and was placed by Aclipse!
On living in Korea:
I have been living in Daejeon, South Korea for about 8 weeks now and I am loving it. The city has an excellent transportation system allowing me to go all over the city without a car with relative ease. Around my apartment building there are many familiar eating establishments which include: KFC, Burger King, 7-11, Starbucks, Coffee bean. Krispie Cream, and a few stops away there is even a Costco! The city is filled with other foreigners who are either studying abroad or working at different Hogwans. I have already met people from Canada, Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand, and Saudi Arabia.
On teaching:
I have 5 classes with a total of 60 different students. Three of my classes are extremely well behaved that consistently participate in class and are a true pleasure to teach. My other two classes have some difficulties but I am getting them more under control and trying to address their difficulties. I really love the late start each day which allows me time to sleep in and go to the gym before work. Also Chungdahm provides me with a Korean assistant who does all the interactions with my students' parents.
On weekends:
I have been going out to the club district in town called Timeworld. There I have met people from all over the world and have had some wild nights clubbing and bar hopping with new friends. Already we have gone on a trip to the Mountains and seen a Buddhist temple, and this weekend we are making a trip to Seoul. I highly recommend Applying through Aclipse and becoming a teacher at Chungdahm Learning!

So I only have a couple of weeks left in the U.S. and I am really excited, but also a bit nervous. I am still currently working at my job here in Milwaukee, WI and I feel like I don't have time to get stuff done. I have an idea of what I want to pack, but I have barely started yet! There are places in Milwaukee I want to go to one last time before I leave and hoping I have time to do so. Does anyone have any great tips on packing because I could sure use them? I thought I would be good at…

I remember when I was preparing to leave for Korea - I scoured the internet for blogs about what to bring. Most of them contradict each other, but out of everything, I did gather one truth that I think every pre-departure teacher should keep in mind:
Spending a lot of money upon arrival vs. having a heavy suitcase.
Which would you rather do (or, well, which doesn't sound *as bad* as the other)? One could show up to the airport with just a small duffel bag and…
