POLY (Junggye)

Hello, I just finished my year contract at Junggye Poly. I actually stayed an extra month so in total, I worked 13 months there. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.

I had low expectations when I first arrived because of all the horror stories you see online. The director and AC both are fluent in English so communication was easy and the structure was very relaxed compared to what I've heard from other Poly campuses. They were both very thoughtful and tried their best to help me whenever I had an issue. They definitely went out of their way several times to help me schedule appointments or with translation, although I wouldn't assume they would. There are definitely improvements that can be made but the job itself was relativity easy and the classes have a lot of structure already in place, like PowerPoints. The improvements that I hope to see are really things I hope Korea as a whole improves upon, not the school specifically. [redacted] If I can in the future, I would 100% come back to this campus. If you're on the fence about which school, you should definitely consider why you want to come. If you want to go out all the time, maybe go to another school that has fewer hours and doesn't take the students learning as seriously. If you want to save up money and do some sightseeing on the weekends, Junggye Poly is a great option.

Hope this helps!
