About the Author
Originally from Canada, Rob Whyte is a long-time resident of Busan, South Korea. A very, long time actually. A battle-hardened veteran of Korea’s ESL industry, he’s taught every kind of student – from cranky pre-kindergarten kids to cranky high school English teachers – over the past two decades or so, though most of his teaching experience is with elementary and middle school children as well as university students. Rob is a published author in the travel and tourism field and has written for international companies like Lonely Planet. He also writes ebooks for ESL teachers.
Here are two short stories he (uh, I) wrote for Lonely Planet about travel in South Korea:

What student level?
All of the activities are suitable for students at the intermediate level, or higher. Most activities can be adjusted to meet the needs of high beginners. I’ve used these activities in mixed-level university classes with great success. My younger students in elementary and middle school – the ones who tend to be advanced for their age – love these activities, too.
High frequency words
Vocabulary is a big part of language learning. The vocabulary set required to understand the questions and to generate typical answers was compared with the 2818 words in the New General Service List. Based on this comparison, students who complete all 36 activities will learn and/or review 910 high frequency words – approximately 33% – in the New General Service List.
