Job Description

Teach English in South Korea through a structured public school program and gain valuable international experience while living abroad. As an English teacher, you will work alongside Korean co-teachers to support students in developing their English speaking and comprehension skills in a classroom setting.

This is a full-time position within the public school system, with a standard work schedule of up to 40 hours per week, including both teaching hours and desk time at your school. Teaching hours typically range from 15–25 hours per week, with the remaining time dedicated to lesson planning, preparation, and supporting school activities.

This position is ideal for recent graduates or first-time teachers looking for a guided and stable opportunity abroad. Teachers are placed in schools across South Korea, ranging from major cities like Seoul to smaller towns, offering a wide range of cultural experiences.

Outside of work, you will have the opportunity to explore South Korea’s vibrant culture, travel throughout Asia, and build a global network.

Our team provides full support throughout the process, including application preparation, interview coaching, visa guidance, and pre-departure assistance to ensure a smooth transition into your new role abroad.
