''Busan Global Village in Busan is searching for fun teachers.''

The Global Village is a pretty alright place, both to visit and from my conversations, work.  You must know so many more people that work there who really do not like it.  Everyone that i have ever talked to that works or worked there really enjoys it.  The schedule is not that bad according to the people that are working there.  Then again, there is nothing wrong with working at a hagwon, either.  Two weeks vacation is pretty good for any job.  Maybe you should tell Busan Global Village that they are not fun.  Yes, that would make much more sense than anything else

just a hunch, but i am guessing that some people either 1)finished their contracts, b)quit, or 4) they are increasing their staff numbers.  just a hunch, though.  they are probably hiring for the same reasons that other places are hiring.  then again, that is just a hunch

The question to me isn't why they are advertising for teachers: many people do.  Perhaps they don't have the mix they want, perhaps they are expanding, perhaps they do have teachers leaving.

The question to me is why they are advertising AGAIN.

Under Miju Lee, they've posted on 1/26, 1/15, 12/02, 11/10.  Previously their job ads were posted under a different name, but the pattern remains the same.

Busan Global Village is looking for teachers.  Busan Global Village is ALWAYS looking for teachers.  Either they are hiring six teachers every two months, a cast of hundreds by now, or they are having to replace teachers every two months. 

The former would actually be a recommendation, but I don't recall Miju Lee posting about how Busan Global Village had passed a hundred teachers.

The second one is why no one should ever send them a resume.  People keep great jobs, and pass them on to their friends.  People keep so-so jobs, and those places need to replace them.  (Not really a comment on the job: maybe the people were wrong, maybe the job was wrong.) People ditch bad jobs, either because the school is cheating (hours, pay, etc.,) or because the director is unreasonable.

People are leaving Busan Global Village.  I don't know why, I don't care why, but I would advise everyone to avoid them until you find the answer.

People don't usually leave a good job, but what is a good job? LBS defines it as getting the longest vacation while teaching the least number of hours.  For him, this job is a joke and he would never consider it.  I can respect that opinion, but others have different goals, qualifications and considerations for taking a job overseas.   I am not endorsing this job, but it may be a good job for someone just coming to Busan for their sojourn while exploring the world. 

personally i have no desire to work at a university or college.  that few working hours would drive me crazy.  vacation is nice, but i enjoy working.  getting up everyday and having a routine is quite nice.  granted, i do enjoy koreabridge, but i would kick myself if i had so much vacation and then all i had to do in my  time was post on here.  give me a 6am to 2pm or a 5:30am to 1:30pm schedule any day.  early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and leaves afternoons free for beer

I see many resumes come in for university jobs.  The quality of applicants has greatly increased.  Many of the resumes I see these days are from people who are not coming to Korea to just pay bills or have a good time, but rather they have planned to come here.  They have teaching experience and degrees to back them up.  Many of the applicants want to be here in the ESL field and are looking to make a difference.  While vacation and class hours are important to them,  teaching in a good program is often equally important.  I believe that there are more than a few old timers in these uni gigs who would not pass the first round of screening if they had to apply today.  These "old timers" are often unqualified in terms of having the correct degrees.  They only have contacts and experience.

There are many different jobs in Busan for many different levels of experience and desires.

Hahaha Agree with this post entirely. who is this?

English villages are mostly my style, anyway, and I might look these guys up as I'm looking for a change from being a public elementary school tape recorder, teaching the same phrases 'Don't do that', 'It's raining, you should bring an umbrella...'

How are their classroom laid out?  Are the walls of each room see-through glass.  In this case, it'd be alot like being an English monkey.

Most English villages are total opposites of public schools in the major fact that they need to be open when the students are out of school.

I would imagine that it takes a special brand of teacher who doesn't mind teaching holidays and weekends.
