North Korea Hiring English Teachers
北朝鲜聘请英语老师
North Korea is working on expanding tourism. To do this, it plans on hiring a handful of English language teachers from abroad. The teachers will work with tour guides at a tourism college. Even though these are short-term voluntary positions, many curious teachers are already showing interest. Instead of receiving asalary, each teacher will have to pay approximately $1,000 to cover travel costs. The teachers who are selected will have strict travel regulations, and will be monitored very closely. Currently, only a limited number of visitors are allowed into North Korea as part of a closely guided tour.
北朝鲜正在扩宽旅游业。为了实现这一目标，计划从国外聘请一些英文老师。教师将一同与导游在旅游大学接受学习。尽管这些只是短期的志愿岗位，但是已经有许多老师展现出了对这一岗位的兴趣。教师没有工资，每名教师反而要缴纳大约1000美金的车旅费。被选中的老师将进行严格，仔细的出行制度检查。目前，在导游的陪同下，只有少数游客能够进入朝鲜旅行。
