To every Applicant that Applies for a position like this, You have to be warned This company GRA- Gabriel Recruitment Agency Korea have posted positions for a 4 week volunteer position for a summer camp and winter camp positions in Malaysia and Singapore.. This add is posted on Craigslist from time to time and I have to be honest with you all its a BIG SCAM and I myself also with a few other teachers got scammed with this teaching position..

This position was never mentioned in a Craigslist Add if its for a 4 week or a 2 week program for a ESL Volunteer teacher.. Its states that each teacher will get as pocket money a total of $400 SGD, and $600 SGD for reimbursement for flight tickets that have already been purchased by the applicant or you have the other option this company will pay for your flight to Singapore but afterwards to head to malaysia you are on your own on that. BECAREFUL of seeing job adds like this its too good too be true...

I flew to Malaysia from Vietnam Hoh CHI MINH city at my own expense on 7/21/15 after receiving a confirmation from their website www.grakorea.co.kr/ and info through my email and I was very happy about it but honestly no details at all about what would i be doing and what is the process. When I got to malaysia in Lotus Desaru resort, I ended up paying over $100 USD from Singapore to Malaysia just to get there and here is where the nightmare started. There is no training at all for new teachers like myself and others, This company GRA KOREA that runs GCAMP hires just about anyone to teach out of desperation and tells them to lie to the students about their teaching experience. The accommodations were not nice where I stayed at Lotus because the wifi didnot work all of the time here.

So during my time here I was given all of the wrong information by the korean staff ( Wang Sub Shim) -AKA DANIEL SHIM and MR JISUN KIM on what was the program all about how many students and how was everything set up. they never gave me a straight answer, they always changed their schedules in 5 minutes and teachers are caught off guard. I had absolutely no idea what was going on and it was stressing me out. These koreans made us foreign teachers test the students based on a piece of paper that had no structure to it and the computers were old and broken and also they were taking pictures through out the camp for more advertising..

The camp has no curriculum at all for the basis for the kids. The korean staff treated me terribly there were times that I could not even eat at night because they were just calling all of us teachers at the last minute for classroom activity.

Classrooms were in the resort areas from jasmine 1, 2, 3 and also in Lily 1,2,3 not cleaned at all every day and many teachers were getting sick at Lotus desaru because of the food that was prepared from Breakfast -Dinner was not cooked thoroughly.

So at the end of the camp this was very sad for me I never got reimbursed for my flight ticket that I bought originally from Vietnam to Singapore for 7/21 and I was given an envelope with only $300SGD with a thank you on it for my work.. and I was promised a return flight ticket back to Vietnam and when I checked my email on 8/21 after the camp kids left for Korea I got no email at all with my return flight for Vietnam and I ended up calling my family to ask for money to go home..

beware and fair warning to all who will apply on Craigslist... this job is a scam.... a Job like this for a ESL Volunteer position is too good to be true and be care ful everyone when applying for a job like this Through GRA KOREA...
