Teaching For Gloria

Gloria is great for people who want to land a job before arrival. They help you get your documents in order, but you'll have to foot the bill. The hours are good, but only having one day off sucks. It is an easy job, but it gets tedious and many of the textbooks are abysmally bad! Like any job it has it's ups and downs, but with the North American job market like it is, a steady $20/hr pay check in a country where most things are half the cost is very tempting. I may go back to be honest. I may even work for Gloria again when I arrive just so I have a job when I get back! Most of the co-teachers are great. Experinces vary depending on where you get stationed. Tong-An is a never ending frat house. Cheng-gong is close to the train station but kind of lonely. Not sure about Ping-zhen, but if you find yourself in Taoyuan there's a great little pub on the corner of San Min Rd and Zhong Hua called the H.O.P. with pizza and beer. Tell Nathan that Paul says hi!
