Incidentally, looks like the NZD is somewhat weak / losing strength against both the KRW and USD. As your country's currency loses value, you can get more of it when exchanging. https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=NZD&to=USD&view=5Yhttps://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=NZD&to=KRW&view=5Y

Just watched my 6th graders graduate! <3 What a great day! Happy Friday!
Also, the way they inputted my vacation into NEIS gave me an extra couple vacation days! :D (not going over the contract amount, just not including weekends during my vacation time).

Hopefully they haven't been stiffing you in the past.
Isn't it a great feeling?!! All the naysayers on this board that vomit, "You're not a real teacher" "You being here is nothing but a dog and pony show" "You make no impact on these kids lives" I know I've made a difference. I've taught kids that had little to NO English skills, that can now carry on a simple conversation with me. Students who at mid-term were not even trying on their exams, but at years end, aced them! Students who hung out on my room after school just to practice their English. Everyday during lunch, my kids (3~6) would come into my room and we'd watch BTS MV's, fangirl, and practice English. Students who wrote me letters when I was out with Flu for a week. Christmas cards with loving messages... These are the things that make being a Teacher worth it! I'm sorry for those who feel as if they've made no impact. I was given an opportunity of a life time, and I will NEVER forget how blessed I've been.
Last. Day. Of class.Then it's 3 days of camp and I'm home free!
