content: Edited film by the Peace Corps documents the experience of one volunteer as a junior high school teacher in Korea. Footage documents the daily routine of the Peace Corps English teacher in his school. Footage includes classroom scenes and teaching methods, lunch with Korean teachers in the staff cafeteria, and the teacher's own Chinese lessons with flash cards. Documentation of the average school day for students in the profiled junior high school is also included in the film. Children participate in a morning assembly, attend physical education classes, study in the school library, and clean classrooms and the school grounds after school. Additional footage juxtaposes the Peace Corps volunteer's English class with that of a Korean teacher.
