Re: Need Travel Insurance for Summer

For longer trips, though, it’s really worth digging into the fine print. The deductible and coverage caps vary so much depending on the provider.

If you're considering a vacation spot, I'd recommend checking options for destinations like Myrtle Beach. It's budget-friendly and great for families. You can get info on accommodations that fit well into family travel.

Re: Dealing with toxic school leadership

I wouldn't stay. The stress alone isn't worth it. Leaving after one term and taking a "sabbatical" sounds like the best option to preserve your mental health and future job prospects. A bad reference from that SLT isn't worth the misery.

Re: Need Travel Insurance for Summer

I totally get the hunt for affordable travel insurance! When I traveled with my family to different places last year, we found it challenging to balance coverage and cost. We ended up using World Nomads for a short trip, as their Standard plan worked well for us.

Re: Recruiting local Program Directors for Middle School Creative Writing Program

This sounds like a really cool opportunity for anyone teaching middle school English at an international school in Korea. I’ve been teaching here for a couple of years now, and programs like this are rare, especially ones focused on creative writing. If you’re into mentoring and helping kids develop their writing skills, it could be a great fit. Expanding into something that might grow across Asia also sounds like it could be a rewarding challenge. Definitely worth looking into if it feels like your kind of thing!
