I am thinking about teaching with EPIK Korea. However I won’t be able to do it unless I can save about $1000 a month to pay back my student loans. Do you think I can still work in Korea for a year?I have my MA in TESOL K-12.
If you get a job with EPIK (and you have a MA in TESOL) you’ll get a salary of approximately 2.4 million won (about $2200). Out of that you should easily be able to save $1000 per month as living expenses are fairly low here, and your biggest expense, that of housing, will be paid for by your employer.
This website, called ESL-South-Korea, has everything you need to know about teaching English in Korea. Topics like job requirements, to application, to types of schools, to the working environment, is covered in detail. There’s even a huge section on Korean culture and adjusting to live in Korea.

Mic Check: Minnesotans confront Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf about “chains of debt”
what can i do or say to my daughter who i support and pay her student loan?
and not will not let me claim her on my income tax for she is working and paying for her rent, but my name is also on her housing contract and every student loan she made, and she has made charges on my credit card which she had max out.
HELP !!!!
One block her from using your credit card. That’s a non-issue. Do it now.
Secondly tell her that if she claims herself on her taxes, you will no longer co-sign for her.
Also who is paying for her daily expenses, etc? Is she working to cover those costs? She may have reason to claim herself, however, but you can still draw the line at cosigning and using the credit card.

How can I figure out if I qualify for a mortgage? Part 1
can I pay my fafsa student loan with American Express credit card?
You should be able to but I wodent want to. Think of all the interest your going to accumulate on your credit card by doing so. Better to just make the monthly payments to your lender.
What percentage of your income can your student loan payments NOT legally exceed?
My problem, based on my income, my student loan payments are about 22% of my take home pay.
I remember hearing that your payments can not exceed a certain percentage of your take home pay. Is this true?
If so, is there a way to make my payments more affordable? I can pay every month, its just such a pinch based on my income.
I have 23% of my student loans through a Dept of Education Consolidation Loan, serviced through DLS and the rest are private loans, not consolidated, serviced through AES.
Thanks for the help.
There’s a new repayment plan for your federal loans that is based on a certain percentage of your income. I know a few of the private companies are also adopting this, but there is no law that they can only charge you a certain percent of your income that I’m aware of.
