Going into this program, I had already experienced Korean life to some degree. However, teaching was new territory that made me feel quite nervous and out of place. However, CIEE did an excellent job providing support and resources to make the transition much easier.
My housing is admittedly one the smaller side, but I feel it is ideal for one person. Likewise, my school is very comfortable and not too far from my housing. I would say I got lucky in this respect. While it is not perfect, my program experience so far has been worth the effort and I am learning a lot very quickly.
