Episode 111: New People (4)

midnight.

‘Mr. Park Jung-min. You mentioned earlier that 'phonology is an imaginary sound'. So can you explain to us the relationship between the real sound and the virtual sound?’

[Eh... well, that's why I think that the virtual sound and the real sound are similar... In fact, our Seoyul University doesn't consider this important...]

The voice of the applicant who gave a test lecture today came out of the speaker.

A very trembling and unconfident voice.

Even if the sound recorded on the recorder was transferred to the computer and listened to, the voice was difficult to understand.

Click-

I stopped the recording I was listening to.

And slowly, I looked up Park Jung-min's name in the list of applicants' names.

OK.

The score that Jisung and Eunsol gave to Park Jungmin caught my eye.

Eunsol: A total of 4 points. There is a lack of attitude and preparation.

Intelligence: 3 points in total. Not good enough to teach students.

It was a disastrous score.

Because I told Eunsol and Jisung in advance to set the minimum score for teaching at an academy to be 5 points.

Of course, since I also listened to the lecture, I knew that his condition was not as good as it was.

But, just in case, I listened to his poetry lecture again.

But.

'I did it...'

Listening again didn't make much of a difference.

I put a 'failed' mark next to his name on the applicant list and a short reason next to it.

[Candidate Jung-min Park failed, lack of understanding of basic concepts, use of unclear vocabulary, poor preparation for lecture]

then let's go

Of the 20 people who took the test today, 14 people remained except for 6 people who were marked as failing.

I glanced at their names, then pulled something out of my pocket.

It's just USB.

It was the flower of the day.

Let's plug it into the computer.

Weing-

Soon a familiar USB folder caught my eye.

“Now, shall we begin in earnest?”

* * *

[Bambi is whispering outside the window, so the room is a foreign country. Now, if you look at this part, the speaker's perception of reality is revealed. In an exotic space called Yukcheopbang, the speaker inside listens to the situation of the space outside the window...]

Um, how good is it?

“Is your name... Jeong Moo-seong?”

After I checked his name on the list of applicants, I put a 'passed' mark next to his name.

after that

"Phew. Let’s rest for a moment.”

For a moment, he stretched out his arms and relaxed.

It was because my eyes were stiff because I had already compared the test lectures and USB data of the applicants for 3 hours.

“·················ogue.”

When I first thought of hiring a hermit crab instructor.

I ran into one problem.

It was a question of how to hire instructors.

As with other academies, if you follow the method of filtering through resumes and having lectures and interviews, it seems that people with real skills will fall out of the resume.

However, it was because it was a very subjective decision to select a lecturer based only on the lecture and interview.

Because of that, I can think about various things.

In the meantime, I tried to refer to the cases of other academies, but there was no solution anywhere to overcome this difficult problem.

That's the only solution that came up.

[Comment 1: Get an instructor by introducing an acquaintance. Then there is not much chance of landmines]

[Comment 2: No, scouting is better than that]

[Comment 3: It is unconditional academic achievement. Is there a more efficient way to filter it than that?]

In the end, this was it.

Of course, all of those methods were the right way to find an instructor, but...

All three methods had little to do with the case of recruiting instructors on a large scale like our current academy.

‘It would be nice if you could show your skills like a game?’

Then the moment I use the USB to prepare for class.

‘Yes, this is it!’

I was able to change my thinking.

That is, ability is subjective, but we have already created a system to objectify it and grasp it.

And if the system could be used, the instructors' skills could be determined as objectively as possible.That system is a test.

It is the task of examining and evaluating talents or abilities according to a certain procedure.

Students across the country are risking their lives.

So, the ability of instructors is ultimately about ‘teaching students well’.

I have come to the conclusion that it is “to understand well the passages that will appear on the exam, the types of questions, and the points of the questions”.

After that, it was a breeze.

All you need to do is select a poetry lecture topic that can discriminate between the two.

[Grammar lectures include phonology and grammar elements. And for the literary lecture, you can prepare a work that you think will be the most important this year.]

There are two themes of the lecture.

Grammar lectures to show the instructor's basic skills.

Free literature poetry lecture to show the instructor's sense.

And, as I expected, these two poetry lecture themes made it possible to grasp the skills of the instructors, which seemed impossible.

The method was simple.

First of all, I and Eunsol and Jisung subjectively evaluate applicants through a lecture and interview, then collect scores and drop out those who do not meet the standards.

Then, through USB, the fingerprints of the CSAT and mock exams for the next five years are identified and compared with the literary fingerprints selected by the instructors.

Finally, compare the next lecturer's lecture with the actual exam question, and check whether the lecturer's lecture captures the point of the problem well.

As a result.

We were able to classify applicants into several types.

And among them, the type I chose is right there.

The information on the resume may be inferior to others, but with those who have excellent basic skills, the ability to find test fingerprints, and the ability to point out the points of the fingerprints.

The information on the resume was superior to others, and he was also excellent in basic skills, the ability to find test fingerprints, and the ability to point out the points of the fingerprints.

E.g.

In the case of candidate No. 22, Hana Kang.

[In the case of a flower that blooms shaking, the main poetic object is ‘flower’, and the characteristic of this flower is ‘blooming while shaking.’ ‘Shaking’ can be seen as the degree of ordeal or pain that makes it difficult for flowers to bloom...

[2020 University Scholastic Ability Test No. 23 Inscription 'Flower Blooming Shakingly' Question Intent and Explanation: Rather than oral ability or mechanical interpretation ability based on simple memorization-oriented knowledge... (omitted)... In the case of the metaphorical object, 'flower' and 'shaken' are the attributes of flowers...

Although the information on the resume may be inferior to others.

Not only did he accurately pinpoint the main points of the literary passage that will appear in the SAT in November of this year, but he also vaguely captured the intention of the question.

In addition, through keyword search, the content of her lectures and answers match a whopping 65% or more.

In this way, rejection and acceptance were decided through a method that cannot be attempted in general academies.

* * *

The bell rings announcing the end of class time.

Then the students looked at Hana Kang with their sparkling eyes.

eager eyes.

Shawshank-class eyes begging me to please get me out of this place.

Kang Hana smiled and opened her mouth.

“Now then, let’s get this done for today. I'll replenish it tomorrow, so don't be late, okay?"

Her roaring voice echoed through the classroom. Students pick up their belongings quickly.

"Yes! Good-bye."

The guys quickly leave the classroom leaving a brief greeting.

The classroom where everyone disappeared.

Hana Kang packed her belongings and looked around her classroom.

Her smile on her face slowly faded away.

"Phew."

A deep, deep sigh escaped from Kang Hani's mouth.

Because this is the academy where she worked for the past two years.

It was the space she wanted to escape from.

‘It’s inevitable.’

Hana Kang shook her head.

A few days ago, when she left hermit crab academy.

[Hana ... her mother needs surgery ....]

It was because news of her mother's surgery reached her.

'Ah···.'

In an instant, she felt her own hopes shattered.

Then her heart, which had swelled in her dreams, became cold.

[Sorry Mom]

Hana Kang shook her head at the sound of her mother's voice coming through her handset.

‘No, Mom, what’s wrong with you?’

If there's anyone to say she's sorry, that's damn fate.

She thought it was him.

From then on, she had to earn money, without even having time to wait for her contact from hermit crab academy.

She told him to keep her only family left of her.

And she tried to defend herself through him.

click-

That moment when she came out of the classroom with a tired expression on her face.

ring-

[This is the Department of Cancer Center, Korea University Hospital. Geum-ja Yang's medical expenses, which have not been paid by today, 7,540,000 won. Please pay by the 10th of the following month. thank you. Have a nice day.]

A heavy message has arrived.

“·················ogue.”

She forced the bridge that was about to collapse.

Saying 'Have a nice day'.

It looked like it was going to leak out of laughter.

The account balance is already zero.

Because she wasn't in a position to be able to have a good day with her.

But for her mother's sake, she was forced to move.

at that time.

chin-

Someone put a hand on Kang Hana's shoulder.

Moment.

“Damn!”

Surprised by her warm, squishy feeling, she shakes her arm.

Let her look behind her there.

“Heh heh, you make a big man feel uncomfortable. Why are you making such a fuss?”

A man with a snake-like smile while waving her wrists.

The school principal was standing there.

Kang Hana's face hardened when she checked the director's face. It was because of the unpleasant sensation I just felt.

“No, what are you thinking that you can’t even hear the call?”

But her manager didn't care about her expression, just approached her and spoke to her, pretending to be her friendly.

"···no. anything."

She took a step back, she said.

Then the director paused for a moment, put his hand on her chin and opened her mouth with an expression of 'Look at this?'

“Hmm… yes, you mean that? what's good By the way, have you thought about what I said?”

said the manager.

Then, Hana Kang's brow furrowed.

The moment you listen to the manager.

Because yesterday, when she asked for her supplementary instructor position, she remembered what the director had said.

'Mr. Instead of just replenishing it, why don't you just sign up again at this opportunity? pay? Well, as Hana-san knows, things are really bad at the academy these days. So, for now, let's go the same as last time. I'll wait for about a year and then upload it to you.'

It was a contract renewal proposal that was no different from last time.

It was probably because the last time Hana Kang left her academy, some of the students who followed her had left her academy.

But then the strong one

‘I’m sorry, but I think that’s going to be difficult.’

She had declined the offer.

Although it was true that she needed a dispatch.

She hadn't even received a rejection or acceptance call from hermit crab academy, where she had been interviewed last time.

So she had to be able to quit the academy whenever she got a call.

Because there was no hope because I was tied up here.

“I told you it would be difficult last time.”

Kang Hana shook her head and said.

OK.

“Hey, don’t do that, think again. No, it's because you're waiting for Hana while squeezing out a lot of people who want to come in?"

The manager said in a soft voice.

Kang Hana let out a sigh of relief.

No matter how much she disliked it, the director was reckless.

finally.

“Master. It must be difficult...”

The moment she decided to reject her manager's offer.

“Hey, at this point, why don’t we just sign a contract? Why are you so obsessive? Maybe because of money? That's because I'll take care of uploading it later."

The manager interrupted her and said.

In an instant, Hana Kang's face hardened.

No matter how you look at it, it wasn't her attitude towards her instructor. She has the attitude to deal with her male subordinates.

However, her director did not care about her expression and just continued his words.

“Honestly, Hana-san, there’s nowhere else to go but this academy, right? Because I'm the only one who writes from a local university in this area. So let's do well together this time. Can't you see me for two years and treat me badly?"

“·················ogue.”

It was sad, but it was true.

Even when she was only looking for a place in this academy, she was rejected by almost ten academies.

Due to the nature of the region, her supply far outweighs the demand for her instructors, so there weren't many of her academies that would want her from her local university.‘No, if there was, it would be similar to here.’

Her expression clouded slightly, and she opened her mouth with a smirk from the director.

“I was thinking about using someone else, but I heard that Hana’s situation was not going well, so I started talking again. A heart wrote If only graduating students come in, how about I think about a percentage system? Is this enough?”

Kang Hana looked at her director with a slightly surprised expression.

ratio system.

Because it was a word she never thought would come out of her manager's mouth.

‘If it’s a ratio system, even if you get 5 more people, it’s 1 million won…’

Hearing the director's words, Hana Kang's face showed signs of conflict.

"after."

Even her mother's hospital bills are being pushed back day by day.

As her ledger said, if she could turn it to zero percentage, she could take the money as much as she did on her own.

Moreover, in the case of hermit crab academy, it is impossible to know when a call will come, or if it will be a pass or not.

Although I knew the director was not a reliable person, that was the only way for me for now.

Because she could no longer entrust her mother's life to something uncertain for her.

So then she is increasingly swayed by the words of her director.

ring-

A message has arrived.

In an instant, Hana Kang was captivated by her strange attraction.

'Perhaps···.'

If there is a call from Hermit Crab Academy at this moment.

And if that's the acceptance letter.

Because she solves all the troubles she has been struggling with at once.

She glanced at the manager waiting for her answer, and checked her phone.

But.

[☆ Genie Finance ☆♚ Legal Minimum Interest Rate $$ Instant ☜☜ 5 Million Won Loan ※§§ Consultation §§ 1 box of vitamins for free]

What appeared in front of Hana Kang was a loud loan advertisement text.

The manager glanced at her cell phone and smiled.

“Where can I contact you?

“·················ogue.”

She looked at her ledger with her sullen expression on her face.

“Well then, let’s talk about what we were talking about. Are you going to sign a contract or not?”

let's be like this

She had a thought in her head that she might just nod her head.

'okay. It's not bad if it's a ratio system... There's no way a large academy like Hermit Crab Academy can hire the same thing...'

In her mind, the prominent instructors who were interviewing with her came to mind. They were all from prestigious universities.

"···then···."

The moment she was about to nod her head at her words to the ledger.

ring-

Another message flew in.

Her hand holding the phone twitched.

Then, seeing this, the director frowned and opened his mouth.

“Heh, isn’t this too much? No, not once or twice, it’s the director, not poker.”

Then she put on a grim look, as if she would not be good if she read the message.

‘What?’

Kang Hana clenched her hand that was holding her cell phone.

If the present opportunity was missed, the difficult story of the ratio system could have disappeared.

However.

'If it's a message from hermit crab academy...'

Perhaps, if she made a contract with the Ledger without confirming that fact, she was likely to have huge regrets.

After thinking about it for a while, she raised her head with her firm expression on her face.

She then checked her phone with her last hope.

OK.

[Kang Hana Teacher! Congratulations on passing the recruitment of hermit crab academy Korean language instructor! For more information, please call or text the number provided.]

[PS: As mentioned before, if you decorate the contract after visiting the main office, you will receive a deposit of 10,000,000 won.]

In an instant, tears welled up in the corners of Hana Kang's eyes when she saw her message.

And right away.

ring-

Hana Kang's eyes trembled.

The director, who was examining Hana Kang's expression, said with a slightly anxious expression.

“Hana-san, don’t you want to sign a contract? Do you keep doing this?”

OK.

She nodded her head without saying a word.

“Yeah, I don’t.”
