How you teach the english, if you dont know the korean?
Ok, so now I understand the weird ass bc faggot thread. Dragon shit's cool.
Boog, Tanya says Hi.
This question really only applies to complete English noobs, i.e. three-year olds (yup, they start learning English that early). Small children are truly sponges and learn quickly. I taught one group of noob four-year olds and started with basics like "My name is...," "I (don't) like...," "I have..." These sentences can generally be explained non-verbally. As they continue to learn English and expand their vocabulary, teaching more complex things becomes easier.Quote:

I know this is Japanese, but since all Asian people are exactly the same, how true is the shit bow? Is a bow a bow or is a shallow bow really a shit bow?
How would you describe speaking korean?
Wait, do you teach the Koreans English or do you teach English in english?Quote:

You're right in saying that's a Japanese thing. The Japs have a really deep bow. In Korea, it's just a deeper head-nod to most people. Think of it as a substitution for the wave hello. However, people higher on the social scale (the oldest in your family, your boss, the oldest in your work place) get a deeper bow though it's still not the full kung-fu-like bow.Quote:

Also, there are two number systems where one is used for counting things while the other is used for things like bus numbers, money, etc. Hard to remember which is which but it usually doesn't matter since Koreans will understand. Lastly, you have to know who you're talking to. You can't speak to someone higher than you on the social ladder like you would to someone equal to or lower than you. There are actually two different systems for approaching the two parties.Quote:

Reading Korean is extremely easy once you learn the alphabet as the language is phonetic (unlike English where we have silent letters, ie subtle). It's sometimes hard to understand when Koreans speak to each other since they don't follow the rules I'm currently learning (they speak informally whereas people usually start learning Korean formally as to not offend anyone). Also, Koreans generally skip consonants in some words when the consonant blends are harder to pronounce. Since I am a visual learner and base my speech on how a word looks (I have to see a word in order to understand how it's pronounced), this messes me up.Quote:

For example, the Korean word for "computer" is "cum-pyoo-tuh" (yup, they take some of our words and Korean-ize them). Another example, when I teach the word "bear," Korean children always say it as "be-yuh" (notice they make it a two-syllable word). That's something I have to correct 100% of the time I teach the word 'bear.'
Also, the final Rs on English words usually come out of their mouths as an L (which we all know). This is due to the fact that the ᄅ letter in Hangul is an 'L' sound at the beginning of syllables and an 'R' sound at the end of syllables. I had to teach a ten-year old how to say "powerful" so she can own her speech contest (she kept saying "powerfur," of course).
Also, I understand I totally went on a tangent there.

What's the legal banging age in S Korea?
Do the girls have nice school uniforms like they do in Japan?
Can I go to jail for smoking weed and banging 16-y/o schoolgirls?
how many hookers have you banged boog?
The legal banging age in S. Korea is 13, I believe.Quote:

Weed is very hard to find in Korea. You can get in a LOT of trouble for smoking weed here due to their extremely harsh drug policy (harsh as in jail time). However, you can bang all the sixteen year-olds you want.

I have no idea. Most Koreans I ask get all "OMGDRUGSARESOSOBAD" when I ask them about it. They almost have a "How can you NOT have super harsh drug laws?" way of thinking about it.Quote:

It's a great experience and makes eating at a restaurant a lot more social since everyone is literally eating from the same plate (grill).
It makes me happy knowing I'm doing exactly what I want. I can confidently say that less than 50% of my friends are doing what they want to do with their life. They're worried about their careers, significant others, what their parents will think, etc. I've always wanted to travel and experience life somewhere else in the world (especially Asia since it's so different). It's given me a more global way of thinking too. I'm happy where I'm at right now. I won't be happy if I'm not doing something better than this when I'm 30 (a lot of English teachers still do this when they're 30 since it's a pretty easy lifestyle).
I'm a Craps addict. I was really drunk and Mark was with me. I like getting others addicted to Craps as well. Craps can snowball easily and end up costing a lot with so many bets I want to place. The $5 Craps table I found was allowing 5X odds which is standard on the bigger tables. What happened at the Craps table that night is still blurry but I'm pretty sure I lost $200 that Craps session.Quote:

The girls are generally about 5'4" or 5'5". Sadly, I'm that tall as well so no, I don't feel like a giant. Asians are hairless except for their pubic area which they don't shave. They give OK head. I've never been able to talk an Asian woman into even making out with another chick. That question seems to be VERY ridiculous to them. They don't like tan skin here since only peasants that work on the farm are tanned-skin which means the Koreans who aren't open to foreigners probably look down on me even more. Most are very, very friendly though. And why doesn't Western culture have MORE dragons?Quote:

Are you now a fan of Kpop?
Trimmed cunts > semi-bushy cunts > shaved cunts > out-of-control cunts
I love Gangnam Style. That's my shit when I go out at night. As for Kpop, I don't like the music without the music video. Here's why (the middle video is my favorite and has some English in it. The last video has the nommiest chicks dressed in short basketball jerseys and starts with English):Quote:

What are korean women most attracted to?
Is there anything I should be aware of when I go apply for a travel visa?
Oh yeah, regarding korean BBQ places: they are amazing. I haven't been to one in awhile but Toronto does have them and the dining experience is awesome.
Really? Even when you're the only other option?Quote:

A meal at a Korean BBQ spot usually only runs about 20K won per person for a ton of food, beer, and local liquor (soju). A movie ticket costs 8K won, a haircut is about 8-10K won, and a quick meal runs about 5K won. If there's something specific you want to know the cost of, feel free to ask. (For a quick conversion into USD, just take off the K and know it's a little less than that number. For example, the quick meal is a little less than $5).
Korean women are most attracted to money, looks, and intelligence, in that order. When buying Korean women gifts or taking them to a restaurant, it doesn't matter what/where it is as long as it's expensive. That's a huge turnoff when looking to get involved with a Korean girl. Obviously, there a few gems out there that aren't like that. You can usually find those at and around artsy universities (art students are always the coolest people). I hear Japanese girls are awesome, know how to treat and aren't as high maintenance.
I have a different visa than the one you would get. I have one for an English teacher which required a Bachelor's degree (which I'm sure traveler wouldn't need), a FBI background check, and a medical test when I got here. I don't know if a regular traveler would need the latter two but I wouldn't be too surprised if they did. It seems Korea likes to keep things pretty homogeneous.
I know other people who are wankers and couldn't actually find something meaningful to do with their life, so they went to Korea to teach English.
Are you one of those people?
Quite possibly. I don't think I want to invest myself in anything before I see the world.Quote:

What you've heard is true. They do work 12+ hours per day and almost each day, their bosses ask to go "for a drink." You can't say no to your boss due to him being all high on the social ladder and stuff. Also, Koreans don't stop at one drink. They don't stop at all until someone throws their drunk ass on the taxi or they pass out on the street (a lot of public displays of drunkenness here). All this leads to the highest suicide rate in the world.Quote:

It's actually a big thing if you cause a Korean to 'lose face' (basically, lose rep) amongst their peers. I find it ridiculous but it is what it is.
It's easier to answer this if you divide Koreans into two groups: 30 & older and the rest. The 30 & older crowd don't speak much English unless they travel for work. If they travel for work, they usually speak Chinese, English, and Korean. They sometimes speak Japanese.Quote:

The way they serve it in K-town is with cold fruit and meat and hard-boiled egg, it's very spicy and delish.

Will this thread ever be titled "I'm an English Teach in a South Korean"?
