My friends, I'll say it clear

... I have been in Korea for nigh upon fifteen years.

The time has come for me to leave, so on or about August 4th, I'll be on an airplane headed to Atlanta-Hartsfield.

I have received a signed contract on a well-paying job there, and have with heavy--but also bursting--heart, informed my school administration of my plans.

Congratulations.  Good luck with the new gig and thanks for putting out some great materials that will definitely still be used in Korea after August 4th. 

Congratulations on the new job! It's always tough to leave somewhere after so long but you can look forward to a new adventure. Thank you for your contributions to this site over the years.

Congratulations from me as well, Mr C. I hope your next stage of life goes well. All the very best.

Good luck!  Your materials definitely helped me out, especially when I was a new teacher in Korea.  Thank you, and all the best.

Good luck. Yes, the heyday of ESL in Korea is done. I tell my younger friends
they should GTFO of here. Korea has so many problems now, not including
the abysmal exchange rate and stagnant pay.

Have fun and don't get shot.

Hello Mr C.
I never come here but by  chance I logged in today. I usually see your stuff on Spam and I recognised your handle.
I've been teaching in Asia for 10 years (just this last one in Korea) and your material is some of the best in my opinion, especially for lower grades. You really helped me out last year when I was overwhelmed with having to use powerpoint to teach (previously I used things like flashcards and game cards).
Having left Japan myself after 11 years, I'm sure you have a lot of mixed feelings but I am sure your next chapter will be exciting and wonderful. Just wanted to say a big thanks for your great contributions to teaching materials!
Good luck with everything!

Gratz on the new position!

I'm happy for you!
I hope that your future in the States will be even better than over here.
I'll be sad to see you leaving here: your lessons and your comments both are always ace.

Congrats Mr C! Good luck in your new life.

Congratulations and good luck!

That sounds great! Good luck!

Way to go, and goodluck!

On to greener pastures, Mr. C. Congratulations!

Congrats Monsieur C!

Wishing you all the best!

Thanks for all the well-wishes everybody!

I'm not gone yet--it is 10 weeks away.  But who's counting

What kind of job have you landed Mr C. Is it still in education?

What kind of job have you landed Mr C. Is it still in education?

Yep, teaching in independent school.

I've gotten my email account for the school, so I think it can't be more official than that!

BTW, to make it clear, it's about twice the pay I've gotten here at the top of the scale for about ten years!

And gogators, one of my favorite songs!
