Dokumanju 0 Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 siren - nah, u wouldn't. The high school girls i teach are about as attractive as my old boots. they wear way too much eye liner and wear their uniforms until they're crusty(i.e. they never wash them ) Link to post Share on other sites

fall-line 0 Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 hmm, i did the eikaiwa thing for a year and a half.... then switched to the AET thing at an elementary school.... the toughest part of being an aet is staying at school for the full 8-9 hrs when i teach b/t 1-3 classes a day during the week......i dont think it's too much to ask to be actually have some 'work' to do while ur supposed to be working. the eikaiwa thing was cool in that i had control over my lessons and other aspects.. and with upper level students there was always some great two-way communication, but the coporate culture within the company drove me nuts....****ers who kissed enough ass to get a 'promotion' telling me i couldn't wear grey hiking socks cuz they weren't dressy.... anyway, i got dreams of riding the pow to keep me happy this winter!

Dokumanju 0 Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Quote: The AET experience ranges from hell to heaven on earth. yep, totally agree with u there. Quote: Imagine being the Hakuba AET or Niseko AET. Hey, IS there a Hakuba or Niseko AET??? yes there are ALt positions for both. The Niseko one is a JET position and the Hakuba one is done thru an Eikaiwa called A to Z. And yes, it would be the sweetest job on earth cos u get free season passes .
