Teaching English in Korea

The other night at the gym while putting my shoes on one of our acquaintance  started a conversation with me on what I am doing on my free time, if I have Korean friend, what do I do at home and etc., I simply replied surfing the net on her first question and no for having Korean friends because on my four years of existence in Korea I only met other people when I go out to shop and work out in the gym.  Well she asked me if I want to come with her, at first I am rattled thinking it is going to be  a church program but it turns out it was not. She asked me if I want to read history or probably story to the kids, if I want to teach English to them. I immediately say no and told her my English is not good but she insist that she thinks my English is good. Lol

When I told my husband about her invitation my husband immediate reaction is “but you’re English is not good” which I seconded and informed him that I declined her job invitation. It could be fine if I know I am fluent in English and I can work legally in Korea but as a dependent visa I am not allowed to work.
