Teaching in Korea is so Cliche

Yes I said it. Teaching in Korea is cliche. Almost all of the foreigners in Korea are English teachers. So Chaerim, why are you trying to teach English in Korea? Because I went to school for it. It makes me sad to know that people think teaching English is an easy job and that anyone can do it. Think again.  (҂⌣̀_⌣́)

Speaking English does not qualify you to teach someone else how to speak it. I feel bad for Korea, not even just Korea but most of East Asia, knowing that most of the teachers they have aren't passionate about teaching English. What about the children?!?!   (/ﾟДﾟ)/

If you like kpop or dramas, that is no reason to go to Korea and teach. Be an actor or a kpop star. Go on Star King or something. Don't go to Korean schools and waste the students' and your co-teacher's time. Teach English because you love the English language and your own native culture and want to share it with others. Teach because you went to school for it or want to break into the field.

I said all of that because we won't become amazing at what we do if we don't have a passion for. Sure you can become good with practice, but we don't want to be just good. We want to be beasts. Beasts at everything we do. Without passion you can't be a beast. Remember that.

Kudos to the teachers who are teaching abroad for the right reasons.
