Task-Based Learning:
Task-Based Learning:
Makes the performance of meaningful tasks central to the learning process.
It is informed by the belief that if students are focused on the completion of a task, they are just as likely to learn language as they are if they are focusing on language forms.
Instead of a language structure or function to be learnt, students are presented with a task they have to perform or a problem they have to solve.
For example, after a class performs some pre-task activities which involve questions and vocabulary checking (i.e. what is this? It's a timetable. What does 'arrival' mean?), they ask and answer questions to solve a problem, such as finding train-timetable information, eg. when does the Brindavan express leave Madras/arrive in Bangalore?.
Task-based learning is sort of like a PPP upside down.
Students are given a task to perform and only when the task has been completed does the teacher discuss the language that was used, making corrections and adjustments which the students' performance of the task has shown to be desirable.

The symbol is the not the sound, just as a church or a lake on the map is not actually a church or a lake! The aim of this approach is to experience sounds and sequences of sound in a personal, physical, muscular way, and to use the phonemic symbol as a visual hook for that physical and auditory experience. It is sounds that are being studied, not symbols.

Korea Overview

Korea Overview
South Korea is the most popular country in the world for many TEFL teachers. High salaries and reasonably low living costs enable many teachers to save significant portions of their wages each month. The demand for English tuition far exceeds the supply of English teachers so many contracts offer excellent employment terms and conditions such as free housing, medical and paid airfares. Most teachers have a great time in South Korea but others complain of an unwelcoming host culture. One thing is for sure – with so many jobs out there it is fairly simple to meet a large group of other English teachers and have a great social life.
Main places for jobs
All major cities and towns.
Typical requirements
Degree, TEFL/CELTA (or equiv.).
Tips
1. Public schools hire staff at the beginning of March and September. However, you need to begin the job and visa application process up to six months prior to actually starting the position. These positions are filled in a first come, first served basis.
2. Private sector schools recruit all year round but you should ideally begin the application process 4-6 months before you hope to begin.
3. There are lots of websites where you can make contact with other teachers in Korea. It is a great idea to get involved in a leisure pursuit outside of work in order to socialise with other foreigners.
Red tape
Different visas are required depending on whether you are working in the public or private sector. This should all be arranged well in advance of arrival in Korea. You will also need a recent criminal records check, health check, original degree certificates and transcripts, plus a pile of passport photos for when you do arrive.
Cost of living
Many employment contracts include the provision of rent-free housing as part of the deal. This is because it can be quite difficult and costly for a foreigner to rent a private apartment without paying rent for a full year in advance. Transportation and local food is cheap but imported foreign food can be expensive.
Tax and salary information
Salaries are usually paid monthly and your employer is responsible for tax. Some institutions offer tax-free salaries.

Summary
There is an insatiable demand for English tuition in South Korea | A substantial number of employers in Korea have poor reputations so thorough research is important before signing a contract |
Good salaries and benefits are the norm | Employment contracts are less important in Korea than in the West so you may be unpleasantly surprised by the level of flexibility expected |
Great social life with other English teachers | Some teachers find Korean culture unwelcoming towards foreigners |

The Korean hierarchy and how it affects you
The Korean hierarchy and how it affects you
Jan 24, 2012 | by Tate | No Comment | Views: 50 views | Categories: Life in Korea | Tags: Hierarchy, korea, society.
When
coming to Korea it is important to remember your role and your place in
the society. Because Korea like in a lot of places in Asia and even in
the west although less pronounced, there is a societal hierarchy that
you don’t have a choice but to adhere to. There is a level of respect that’s given to individuals based on this hierarchy. You can see it everywhere in Korea. For some of us Westerners that have the mentality of equality among all it is especially important to keep this in mind. Although I am aware of this hierarchy, it is not clearly defined in my head. That is why I asked my students to explain to me just how it is setup. And here is what they told me.
Occupation plays a big role in how the society deals with you. And frankly speaking you are defined by what you do. However age has a lot to do with it too.
At the top of the hierarchy are:
- President
- Judges, Lawyers & Doctors
- Professors, Teachers
- Engineers
- Business Owners & CEOs
- Police officers & Firefighters
- Managers
- Office workers
- Everyone else Least favorable occupations according to the students. They were a bit harsh here.
- Taxi Drivers
- Cleaners i.e garbage collectors, dish washers etc
- The Dirt
- Prostitutes
Conclusion
Your role in the society depends heavily on what you do. Since Korea is a society that values education very much what you do is tied with how smart you are. And how smart you are defines who you are. Therefore you only get the respect that your intelligence permits.Let’s not forget however that regardless of what you do it seems that the old people in Korea surpass the hierarchical system and are in a category of their own. Thus the older you are the more pull you have in the society.
Annoying Interactions with Korean Men
Annoying Interactions with Korean Men
After living in Korea for almost three years, I am still learning how to act within a complex gender and age hierarchy. Korean men are some of the kindest, most trustworthy people I have met. However, anytime I am traveling alone (or even in my hometown, for that matter) I tend to pay special attention to my interactions with men. Sometimes these exchanges are minor annoyances, but sometimes they are disconcerting advances. The following are a few examples:
In the Workplace
In addition to working within an age hierarchy, working with men also introduces another level of deference. Combine age and gender and you can find yourself at the bottom of the totem pole.
Most workplaces have colleague dinners which take place anywhere from once a month to several times a week. If a superior invites you, you must attend. Even if you have plans. Even if you receive two hours notice (although I do occasionally manage to get out of these because I am the lone foreigner).
These dinners last for at least a couple of hours and require many shots of soju, cheap rice liquor. I like the fact that men and women aren’t segregated in social drinking situations, but if male colleagues decide that they want you to drink, then it’s expected that you go along with it. You can decline, but the pressure is there, and drinking together is considered an important part of workplace bonding.
As a foreigner, I tend to get away with leaving early (usually after a co-worker asks permission for me from the principal). In general my colleagues forgive me, assuming that I’m bored not being able to keep up with their conversations. However, my younger female coworkers feel pressured to stay until the night is over, egged on by the increasingly drunker older men. To me they may admit that all they wanted to do was go home and sleep.
Casual Interactions
Being a foreigner abroad can spark instant conversations with strangers. Sometimes those conversations are welcome and enjoyable. However, most of my random interactions with Koreans are with older men. Perhaps it’s because of my instinct to be wary of all men when I’m traveling alone, but no matter how polite I want to be, by now I generally get frustrated. It doesn’t help that many men ask questions like it is an order; it sounds more like a barking command than an entreaty to polite conversation. The first question almost always is, “Where are you from!!!” I always respond, but I’m usually aloof. I know what’s coming. After this, the questions can get personal and uncomfortable for a lone woman. Or else you might just face silence and a long stare.
For example, one day while sitting in my favorite park, reading a good book and listening to my iPod, an older man went out of his way to get a better look at me. He started speaking before I even took off my headphones.
“Yes?” I asked.
“Where are you from?”
“America.”
“What do you do?”
“I’m a teacher.”
“Where do you live?”
“What?” I started to wish I had pretended not to speak Korean.
“Where do you live?”
“Um, around there.” I point.
“Yes. What building?”
“A big white one,” I gesture again away over a hill.
“What’s the name of the building?”
Though his persistence was impressive, and he was admittedly a friendly guy, these aren’t questions older men should be asking of young women.
The other kinds of questions women can get are of the sleazier vein.
My first year in Korea, while sitting on a metal bench in a subway station listening to my trusty iPod, I felt a light tap on my shoulder. A young man leaned across from his bench behind me.
“Are you Russian?”
“What?” I ask.
“Are you Russian?”
“No, I’m not Russian.”
“You’re not?”
“No.”
He walked away. I fumed, stuffing my headphones back on my ears.
By this time I had heard that if someone asks if you’re Russian it means they are soliciting prostitution. Besides obviously being offensive to Russian women, when someone asks if you are a prostitute based only on your hair and eye color, it’s a bit infuriating.
Smoking and Spitting in Public
As of 2000, 67% of Korean men smoked, compared with 23.4% in the U.S. Smoking is allowed almost anywhere, from crowded bars to public restrooms (I’m not sure it’s legal, but it happens all the time). While walking along the sidewalks, I not only dodge people, but also their puffs of smoke. It is surprising how difficult it is to walk any moderate distance without inhaling second-hand smoke. Even when waiting for a bus, it isn’t taboo for someone to light up right next to you.
Spitting comes with the excessive smoking. The sound of hawking loogies raises hairs on my neck. As with smoking, spitting is not considered impolite, at least not for men. Most people only spit outside (which always makes me nervous when I pass people on my bicycle, lest they not know I’m coming and spit on me), but occasionally I’ve seen men spit indoors.
Despite these cultural differences, Korea continues to delight and surprise me. It’s also the safest country I’ve ever been in. The people have generous and warm spirits. As in all countries, adapting to challenges is part of the adventure. Just watch out for those loogies.
Hierarchy- one of significant influences on older life in Korea
Strong Hierarchy between Older and Younger Age in Traditional Society
Hierarchy- one of significant influences on older life in Korea
As I discuss previous posts, filial piety from the Confucianism
and the concept of reciprocity significantly affect into people's later
life. Confucianism make people remember what their older generation gave
for them when they are younger such as upbringing. The reciprocity
cause the duty of descendants that they have to respect older people not
just their grandmother or grandfather but all elderly. Regarding this
characteristic of Confucianism, one of most significant characteristic
that forms older people's life in Korean and most East Asian society is 'hierarchy.'
I am going to discuss in this post that how the hierarchy is created in
the Confucianism, and it will be the great explanation for why elderly
are respected in Confucianism cultural society.
Why strong hierarchy in Korea and most East Asian countries?
In traditional society, it is often seen that grandsons or granddaughters call their grandparents while their mother cook and get ready for dinner. When whole family member gather - usually three generations, grandparents, parents and grandson-, all family don't touch food and wait for until grandparents have food first. When grandparents serve soup and food, parents and children start to eat. It is a manner during family meal.
And, this is very unusual in American culture !
The hierarchy between ages or generations in family is strict in Korea traditions because of the filial piety- the Confucianism.
In our class reading, Olson also mentions about significance of
hierarchy in East Asian tradition and the Confucianism. In the book, Age
Through Ethnic Lenses, writer states that "Hierarchy is important, and
family members have prescribed roles and responsibilities according to
gender, age, and birth order. For example, one prescription is that
children must obey and care for their parents without question or
resentment." (Olson 2001, page 24)
'Hierarchy' from the concept of Reciprocity and Confucianism
The hierarchical relationship between older and younger
generations is also formulated from the concept of reciprocity like
other characteristic of Confucianism. Korean traditions as other East
Asian countries of Confucianism culture is based on that current life of
offspring is strongly connected with their older generations and
ancestors, due to the one common philosophical concept- Confucianism.
When people were born, they owed their lives to their former generations
who fed and raised them when they were not able to do themselves.
People have the unavoidable obligations to serve elderly well, as the
reciprocity of Confucianism to ancestors. Therefore, the hierarchical
relationship between older and younger generations is founded from the
concept of family lineage and reciprocity.
We can find an example from ancestor worship. traditional
societies of Korea significantly considered ancestor worship to prove or
maintain the fine family continuity and the ritual creates the strong
hierarchy between family generations. In "Ancestor Worship and Korean
Society," Roger L. Janelli maintains that "Domestic ritual obligation in
Korea fall parallel to the succession to household headship and the
inheritance of household property.... In addition to the obligations
toward his parents, an eldest son assumes any ritual responsibilities
his father has had toward agnatic forebears within the three
generation." (Janeli 1982, page 99)
This characteristic is not just limited in Korea but it was happened
other confucianism traditional society such as Japan. The following
example from Japan proves this. In "Shinohata," Ronald P. Dore also
states "Continuity of the family had a triple importance. Securing a
successor had a straightfoward bread-and butter importance for one's old
age. It also had a ritual importance. Reverence for the ancestors was
an important focus of religious sentiment and practice. It was a part of
the duty of filial piety towards one's ancestors not only to perform
the proper ritual oneself, but also to ensure that they would be
performed in perpetuity." (Dore 1978, page 138)
Both examples from Korea and Japan explain that the importance of
family continuity under the preexisted rules of succession and the
hierarchical system. And, this hierarchy affects into elderly's
lifestyle with their children and grandchildren in family. We can find a
lot of positive influence into later life from this characteristic of
Confucianism because it helps family harmony by those manners that
people have to follow in family. However, if we see entire society,
there could be absurd or unreasonable rules because sometime people's
opinions are respected just depends on by older ages not by competences
of person. So, at next post, I will discuss how the Confucianism has
been changed in today's society and how it can negatively affect into
older people's life.

Sexual Seduction Tips To Make Your Korean Girlfriend Want You...
Sexual Seduction Tips To Make
Your Korean Girlfriend Want You...
Sexual seduction - Discover how to be good in bed and
make your Korean girlfriend stay!Sexual seduction is amazing for any woman.
But for a Korean woman it's even more amazing!
Why?
Because chances are (and I'll be blunt) that she doesn't know what a good time in bed is REALLY like.
Korean society is very focused on academics and family.
So much so that most Koreans either don't know what a good time in bed is or just don't care enough.
So why not be HER exception?
Why not be the man to give it to her?
If you can sexually seduce a Korean woman she'll remember you forever and will definitely stick around.
So what can you do NOW to be better in bed with your Korean girlfriend?
You can
• get her to climax
• try new things in bed
• apply sexual seduction OUTSIDE of the bedroom
• make sure she says 'thank you'
Believe me when I say that if you're good in bed your Korean girlfriend will treasure you forever.
Sexual Seduction Skill #1 - Get Her Climaxing With You
The only time I'll accept it if someone says that a Korean woman is like a woman from anywhere is when we're talking about her anatomy.It's important to find her #1 sensual spot and play with it. That magic spot is between her legs. To learn more about how to give an orgasm massage then click on the link.
Most men in her life have probably never found it. She has probably never experienced it. Make it happen and she'll be forever grateful.
Now the next time you're in bed with a woman I don't recommend making her feel like the only thing you care about is to get her to orgasm. It works better if you make it part of your overall sexual skills.
In fact sometimes for me I don't do it to keep her remembering that it's about us getting deeply intimate and not the orgasms. You see it's not just a question of doing it all the time. It's a question 'can you do it' to her and doing it when YOU want to.
That question is what get her madly into you! If you want the skills to guarantee this I recommend checking out RedpoleQ's 'Art & Science of Sex' Seminar. You can check out the schedule when he's in Seoul by clicking on the link. I took that seminar back in 2007 and it has allowed myself (and my girlfriends) to live happier sex lives.
So what else can you do to make sexual seduction a tool for you that works?
Sexual Seduction Tool # 2 - Try New Things in The Bedroom
Another great way to make sure she's having fun in bed is to mix things up. Variety promises excitement so why not give it to her?Try different positions. Besides the normal positions like missionary and cowgirl why not play around and make some up together? If you try new things and keep an eye on how she's enjoying sex you'll both find her new favorite position. ;-)
Introduce new things to the bedroom. No you don't have to bring animals. Instead bring
• foods and drinks
• blindfolds and ropes
• new music (I recommend Enigma and Vanessa Daou)
These are just a few ideas. Introduce them one at a time and you'll make sex much more enjoyable.
Last longer occasionally. Rather than simply lasting as long as possible I recommend mixing it up. Sometimes try to last a few hours. Take breaks. Sometimes go for a quickie.
The magic sentence for her pleasure is - Keep her guessing!
Speaking of giving her pleasant surprises...
Sexual Seduction #3 - Seduce Her OUTSIDE The Bedroom
Telling your Korean girlfriend how sexy she is in the bedroom is nice. Whispering to her how sexy she is at a restaurant is much more sexy…If you can tell her how much you want her sexually in places where it's inappropriate for her to get horny then she'll love you more! The tension will get her even more lustful for you.
Did I mention how most guys in her life have never done that yet? ;-)
Make sexual jokes! If you can use double speak or sexual jokes during your conversations with her you'll get her laughing and horny. What a great mix of feelings a woman can feel for you!
For example the next time you're drinking a coffee together you can joke by saying in a sensual voice "mmm sometimes it feels so good to have something so HOT inside me. Wouldn't you agree?" ;-)
Sure this is corny but it works. It gets her laughing and wanting you there and then. The best part is she's loving it!

Sexual Seduction Tip # 4 - Make Sure She Says "Thank You"
This might be controversial but it's very important. Society makes us believe that ONLY men should be grateful for women for giving them sex.That sex is something women do for us men.
This is a bad myth.
For us men the sexual lust lasts a short time and we're made to finish in a few minutes.
Not so for women.
Women can enjoy those lustful feelings a lot longer and more powerfully.
They also can orgasm in more ways that men can.
If you can make her feel so good in bed and get her to say 'thank you' then you know she's enjoying it.
THEN you know that you're doing a good job.
If she's having qualms with saying "thank you" then refer to tip #1. ;-)
NOTE: this isn't about showing how 'cool' you are and how she owes you something. It's about giving her the chance to surrender herself sexually and thanking you for bringing her there safely and...pleasurably.
Pleasure her in ways that her ex-boyfriends never even knew about!
Can YOU Sexually Seduce Her?
These tips are guaranteed to make a Korean woman (or any woman) stick around for more. You'll have influence over her in a way that most men will not.Granted do you have the mindset and sexual maturity to do these things? Do you accept your own sexuality?
I know for me that I used to associate 'sex' with 'shame'. It wasn't until I read Without Embarrassment that I was able to transform myself to a sex-enjoying and giving man. If you're the same way I recommend clicking on the link above.
ANYONE Can Improve Their Sexual Seduction Skills!
When I first started I was not particularly good with women in bed.What worked for me was the material from the 'Art & Science of Sex Seminar' that RedpoleQ teaches. If you want to boost your skills in the bedroom then I recommend checking it out by clicking on the link.
In any case just have fun with these tips. She sure will! ;-)

5 Negative Body Language Signs When Dating Korean Women!
5 Negative Body Language Signs
When Dating Korean Women!
Do your dates with Korean women go nowhere? What if her negative body language could give away what's going wrong?
Or even more - How do you know that she's really interested in you?
What can you do to turn your date around if you spot them?
Rest easy - below you'll discover the most common negative signs.
You'll also get practical tips on how to bypass them for your dates to work out!
Granted if you get this first sign then it might be over before it even began. ;-)
If you've ever hung out with Koreans or met a Korean woman you might have seen this one.
Personally I think it's charming!
Negative Body Language #1 - The Infamous 'X'
If you're ever starting conversation or escalating the interaction with a Korean woman she might cross her hands to make an 'X'.This means that she's not interested and doesn't want to talk to you.
What can you do? When you get this sign you can high-five both of her hands. This might get her to laugh and find you charming for being able to work around her blocking you.
I've had times where doing this got that attractive woman from Korea to re-consider talking with me.
After all you do attract her some with your improvisation skill. ;-)
Negative Body Language #2 - Looking Away
If ever you're in a conversation with a woman and she's looking away then that's a bad sign.Maybe she's looking for someone or she's bored.
In any case it's not good news for you.
What can you do? I recommend tapping her arm or the table slightly to regain her focus.
From there I recommend picking another topic quickly to get her talking to you.
If you're out of ideas you can always ask her to tell you a joke (or vice versa.) You can ask her
"Why was 6 afraid of 7?""Because 7 ate 9!" ;-)
This is corny but funny joke and it will get her attention again.
I works for my friends and I.
If you tell her a joke and she's still looking away then chances are she's waiting for someone or has a meeting later. You can ask her who she's waiting for or what her schedule is like to get a better idea.
Negative Body Language #3 - Crossed Arms
If a woman is crossing her arms then it means she's either not comfortable or doesn't want to talk to you at all (she's just being polite.)What can you do? In this case I recommend trying to find something interesting or funny to talk about. You can use the little joke above or ask her questions about her life (family, dreams, etc.)
You can also make yourself look and feel more comfortable so that she can start to do the same. It's the same thing you would do with a nervous child. Make yourself comfortable first and the child will follow suit.
Negative Body Language #4 - Touching Fingers
When a woman is caressing her fingers it means that she's re-assuring herself. In other words she's not comfortable or is nervous around you.What can you do? I'd recommend being aware of this and following the advice above.
Negative Body Language #5 - Tapping
If you're talking with her and she starts to either tap with her fingers or her feet then she's getting impatient.This could mean two things: Either she's waiting for your date (or interaction) to finish or she's getting bored because you're not making a move.
In this case I recommend assuming that it's the second case. You can bring more intimacy to the interaction by taking her somewhere else. Is there an ice cream store nearby? How about going there?
You can also up the ante and make the interaction more personal. Does she know you like her? How can you be sure?
Definitely Not Keen If There's No Positive Body Language
Granted - the ultimate way to know that she's not interested is if she's not showing any positive body language! For 3 basic body language signs that shows that she's interested I recommend clicking on the link.
