Am I doomed to wait for job openings now until November/May?
I was desperate, because my current school closed down, and I had little time or options to look around.
I am very limited by my choice for a school, owing to my location, which I have to remain in; and I'm based near Incheon.
I have agreed to join a school which I really don't want to go to, because they're Prep/Kindy age. 8-5pm. I have been given 6 year olds, as a kind of homeroom teacher, supported by a Korean co teacher. The pay is ok, like 3.7, though I think I could have got 3.9. Even so, that's not exactly earth shattering. I'm just a bit too old for this age group, feel burnt out, and also know I'm diffefently qualified (Masters, Qualified teacher, 11 years experience covering between 10-20 years old). I'm F Visa too.
I just feel a real sense of dread...
I much prefer Secondary age, or even High School - University, but I know that is a little unrealistic given the scarcity and requirements of these jobs.
Do I just need to accept this, bite the bullet and wait it out, or will there be a slither of hope before August/September, you think?
