English Person in Korea (EPIK) Teaching Program in South Korea
Zan Tsang, International Studies Major – 2014
Greetings from Zan Tsang in South Korea. I graduated from UNBC in May 2014 with a Major in International Studies. I'm currently with the EPIK (English Person In Korea) Teaching program in Daegu, South Korea, in the southern part of the country. I teach 22 classes a week, and am at school from 8:30-4:30 Monday to Friday. I teach grades 3 to 6. The kids here are wonderful! Korea does not hold back when it comes to spending money on education! There are 33 inch Samsung TVs mounted in every classroom and rather than just a PA system, they have a fully functional video broadcasting room that is operated by students (equipment, announcer, lights, etc.). South Korea is a very beautiful country and when I am not teaching, I am busy making new friends, exploring a new culture and country.
