Are you looking for something vibrant, energetic, and buzzing, while at the same time is laid-back and yet down-to-earth? Well, that is South Korea for you.
Take a stroll through Bukhansan park, admiring its mountain peaks, luscious forests, mystic lakes and ancient temples. Spend your day exploring the streets of Seoul, restaurant crawling, window shopping and people watching (yes, it’s a thing). With its rich history, historical buildings, hip culture, scenic landscapes, and mesmerising atmosphere, you might just find yourself leaving your heart behind on your way back.
Now we know that finding your Seoul is one thing. But feeding it is a whole other story. South Korea has the answer. Experience a symphony of flavours with authentic kimchi, bibimbap, red rice cakes, bulgogi, KFC (Korean fried chicken), korean stew and much more!
This program has a lot to offer and therefore requires teachers that are who we like to call ‘top brass’. Are you enthusiastic about teaching, have a passion for children, and have a real desire for kimchi? Then you are ‘top brass’ - just kidding about the kimchi!
This internship opportunity offers a fantastic opportunity to teach English in schools across South Korea! But don’t worry, you won't have to do this alone, your journey will start with intensive full training and orientation. The aim would be to ensure that you will have all the information you need to excel in your role, from in-class teaching and cultural sensitivity to knowing the ins and outs of living in Korea.
All teaching contracts are for a 12-month period, which means you will have twelve months to gain valuable teaching experience, travel and explore Korea, and make memories that will last a lifetime. You will be assisting the regular classroom teacher in the preparation and development of teaching materials, conducting English classes, and actively engaging with students in English conversations to improve their confidence in their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills.
