new job prospects

well at least I know I won't be unemployed.

I've had no less than 5 job offers this week. While some are just ridiculous others seem solid.

The best so far is from a franchise with a TERRIBLE reputation but a school with a WONDERFUL reputation. That is the Sangin Wonderland. Google Wonderland and you'll hear one bad story after another. There's even a book about it that's now been published. However, it is a franchise system and of the 120 Wonderlands in Korea, only about 20 get panned. In fact I have personally talked to two current teachers there who both give it a good review. One is a good friend of Geoff's, so it's a solid review IMO.

At this point I'm well in to my 4-5 year plan of working in Korea to pay down my uni debt, save up for an MA, learn another language and see most of east/SE Asia. Ideally I want a uni job or else a place that I can just work at without hassles as I'm about halfway to reaching those goals (debt crunching much further along than, say, language aquisition). I'll meet with them tomorrow and see how it is. I'm also keeping other options open.

Wish me luck.
