Don't worry, it's South Korea. I officially got offered a job working at the Simson School in Seoul, South Korea. I leave January 2! It will be here before I know it. I'll be teaching history, science, and literature in English to fifth and sixth graders. I'm so excited, and I little nervous too. I think this will be an absolutely awesome experience, but I'm sure there will be some hiccups along the way. There always are when working in a different environment and culture.
So in the meantime I'll be trying to prepare myself by learning the Korean alphabet, getting my paperwork figured out, and deciding what I need to take with me for a year in Korea. And also spending time with my family before I leave.
I invite anyone who wants to come visit me, to come. I'll have a studio apartment, so you might have to sleep on the floor, but hey it would be a free room. And if anyone has any advice on teaching ESL, please throw it my way.
