Eyes Towards the World Hearts Full of Dreams

One of the first questions I had my students answer on the first day was, "what do you want to be when you grow up?"  Their answers included diplomat, ambassador, and CEO; welcome to Busan International High school.
So while I am not any of these things, I like to think I am teaching the next diplomats, ambassadors, and CEO's English. 
I teach 16 (ish) classes per week of high school freshman, with 9 different lesson plans, in addition to helping students individually prep for the myraid of English tests they will encounter on their arduous journey to attend only the best universities.
My classes have about 20 students each, and although I think it's in my contract, I do not have a co-teacher in the classroom with me.  However, unlike most people I have 3 other Native English Teachers at my school, so lunchtimes are less lonely, and having people to sort things out with is invaluable.


Check out my school's YouTube video.
