Lotte Tour Development Seed Library Campaign 'Response'... Teacher Recruitment Closed in 5 Minutes

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters (Jeju) Reporter Park Chang-won] The Seed Book Campaign, a core educational project of Lotte Tour Development, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province's leading local enterprise, is receiving great response from the local community.

Lotte Tour Development announced on the 18th that all applications were completed in just 5 minutes during the recruitment of teachers for the 2nd Seed Book Campaign, organized by Jeju Library Friends on the 17th.

Within only 5 minutes of the recruitment opening, 450 people rushed in, completing the registration instantly.

Last September, the 1st recruitment (450 people) was also closed early within an hour.

Jeju Library Friends plan to sequentially provide participating teachers with a 100,000 KRW Seed Voucher (village bookstore usage coupon) starting from the 1st of next month.

Participating teachers will use the vouchers to purchase books at village bookstores near their schools and then engage in reading guidance by reading books to children.

Jeju Library Friends plan to visit the participating teachers' schools to conduct small-scale training sessions for proper reading education.

At the end of last month, they distributed a recommended book list to elementary school teachers in the province to help foster children's imagination and logical thinking.

Jeju Library Friends plan to recruit teachers for the 3rd round in September after conducting reading education job training in July and August.

Heo Soon-young, director of Jeju Library Friends, said, “The Seed Book Campaign has begun to have a positive influence not only on frontline teachers but also on children,” adding, “I hope more attention will be gathered for this campaign that is creating the miracles of the future.”
