Why Korea: Is this a choice for me?
If you`ve found our page it is very possible that you already have an idea about whether or not teaching in Korea is right for you. We are not here to convince anyone that it is, but simply to educate those who have always wondered about it and didn`t have the proper information to make a final decision.
Korea is a land of opportunity for many young and educated people. It is a gateway to Travel, Experience, and Job fulfillment. Whether you`re feeling stressed at your current job, burned out from a university education, or just plain hungry for adventure, you are likely going to find that this is a great opportunity.
A year may seem like a long time away from family and friends but looking at it from an experience point of view; you will find that there is a lot to gain. It can go fast or slow, depending on the opportunities you take and on how open you are to new environments and situations.
Some of the benefits of signing a teaching contract in Korea are:
Many affordable travel opportunities in and around S. Korea
A competitive salary
Paid accommodations and in some cases meals provided by the school
Living expenses are very low compared to western countries
Meeting people from around the world and finding new travel opportunities
Most contracts require you to work 30 hours or less per week, with many national holidays off
Exposure to a unique culture
The rewards of teaching children who are bright and eager to learn
A chance to be different!
_________________________________________
To qualify to obtain an E2 visa (English teacher Visa) in Korea, you must have:
Passport from a native English speak country. The Korean government recognizes: United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand
At least a 3 or 4 year degree, in any major, from an accredited university in a native English speaking country.
Clean criminal record check from your country. (a minor offense can be allowed)
One of the most common questions we receive is do I need TESOL type course to qualify. The answer is "no", you just need a university degree.
These rules for an E2 visa are not that of Teach ESL Korea, but that of the Korean government. We understand there are many others who are highly motivated to teach in Korea, who might not fill all of these requirements, and if this is the case you will not be allowed to teach English in Korea.

Types of Jobs in Korea
There are 3 basic types of Private School (Hogwan) jobs Korea. Within the type of job, the details, such as working hrs, and age of kids will be very similar. (For public school, see below)
Kindergarten and elementary school - Your hours would be from about 10am, to about 6pm, with you teaching no more than 30 hours each week. You will always follow a series of textbooks, determined by your supervisor or director. You will focus on simple English conversation, vocabulary, pronunciation and to a lesser extent grammar. You will also use things like flash cards, simple songs and body language to help the students learn. Teaching younger students requires more energy, but is often considered the most fulfilling type of job, since it will be easy to see progress in your students very quickly, as they absorb your lessons. Teachers over 35 are not often hired to teach the younger kids in Korea.
Elementary and middle school - Your work hours would be from about 1pm, to around 9pm. You will help students expand their vocabulary, showing them various ways to use the new words in sentences. You will always follow a set of textbooks for each class. In some schools you have a Korean co-teacher in class, while in others you will be solo. You might also help contribute more to the lesson plans, or reporting on students` development, which can add to the workload. Most of your classes would be with elementary aged students.
***Middle school or high school. Many people are not aware when they begin this process that there are very, very few jobs teaching this age group in Korea - especially for your first year in Korea. The reason is this age of student in Korea focuses almost exclusively on English grammar, as they prepare for the university entrance exams. They teach this grammar using English speaking Korean teachers who explain the finer points in Korean. (It must be so boring!)
