Creverse reviews about "vacation days"

Once you get the hang of class prep, it takes minimal time & effort, as the academy provides the lesson plans. Mind you, there is a bit of tech to familiarize yourself with (specifically smart boards), but isn't difficult to get used to. I have heard a lot of complaints regarding the work-life balance while working at an academy, but in my opinion ESL teachers don't realize that they are working less hours with less pressure from management than the average Korean white collar worker.

Get paid on time. Pre-made curriculum.

If you have a good manager at your branch, your time there will be great. I appreciated the efforts from the good managers I had, as they tried their best to help all of the teachers out/make things easier. The cons I have listed could not apply if your manager is good.

I am introverted, so I appreciated not being pushed to socialize. However, there are plenty of opportunities to socialize with coworkers. They have a set curriculum and after some getting used to, prep is minimal.

It comes with a lot of benefits like flight reimbursement, housing, a pension refund, and one month's pay at the end of your contract. Great for new teachers. You only need a degree and a background check.
