Program Reviews

Honestly I have had a few different recruiters from Esl Consulting and by far Danielle is the absolute best!! I heard about this program from my best friend and I have always wanted to teach in Korea. Danielle is absolutely wonderful!! She is so kind, bright, quick and calming. She was able to get me into a school in a matter of two weeks and despite the craziness of my visa I am so blessed to have her helping me. She made each hurdle calming and I’m so happy to start working for my new school!!

I had such a good time throughout the entire experience. My recruiter was very patient with me, which was very helpful as I was working a lot during my application. She was also very informative and made sure I had everything I needed to properly immigrate. Even after landing she has helped answer all my questions and acted as a great bridge between me and my school. My housing is in a very calm and quiet location, with a busting city center only 20 mins away, which is exactly what I wanted. There are a lot of restaurants and shop in the area so it is very convenient for me. My school staff has also been very kind to me, from my interview to my arrival, they have made sure I have everything I need to thrive here. There are also a lot of helpful international teacherers who answer all my questions and help guide me in the right direction. I am so thankful for my stress free experience.

Danielle from SeoulESL was so helpful every step of the way. With Covid-19, things are a bit more complicated but she helped me with every step to make sure that I had a smooth move to Korea. She got everything done quickly and efficiently. They helped me find a good school in a location that I wanted. When moving abroad there are a lot of things to consider especially when it comes to choosing the right school and right location. Seoul ESL definitely helped me with choosing a great location and a great school.

This is my second year in South Korea, and my second time making use of Seoul ESL Consulting to help me find a suitable school. Thie first experience was good, but I wanted to move to a more central location in Seoul whilst still working at a good school. After contacting my first recruiter, I had several interviews scheduled within a week and the whole process was really great. They support you every step of the way. A fantastic team, making the whole endeavor slightly less daunting. I would recommend this recruiting company to anyone (and I have several times in the past year!). Here's to another lovely year in this amazing country!

From beginning to end SeoulESL was amazing! Chloe, Danielle, and Sammie were in constant contact. They made sure I had all of the necessary information and answered any questions I had. I never had to wait longer than 24 hours for a response. I definitely would not have been able to make this move without them. COVID has made things more complicated but SeoulESl was there every step of the way. Highly recommend this recruiting company for peace of mind and friendly service. Thank you to everyone at SeoulESL!

My experience with SeoulESL consulting has been amazing, to say the least. After completing my undergraduate studies in May of 2020, I knew I wanted to begin this journey of moving abroad to South Korea to teach English. With the COVID-19 pandemic wreaking havoc on the world, I feared that schools wouldn't be interested. Luckily I stumbled across Seoul ESL. My recruiters have been nothing but helpful, supportive, and understanding throughout this entire process. Don't hesitate to choose SeoulESL!

I received great support from my recruiter Danielle at SeoulESL. She walked me through all the steps for visa application and answered every single one of my many questions. I’m really thankful for her patience and for helping me secure a job in Korea at an awesome private school. :) This is my first time coming to Korea to teach so I didn’t even know where to start and with covid everything seemed even more complicated but thanks to all the help, I got to Korea safely and can’t wait to start working.

I had taught in Korea previously, hired through EPIK. This time around I was interested in expanding my options and looked into non-public school job postings. It was a little overwhelming, so I figured applying to a recruitment agency would take some of the stress away. Chloe with Seoul ESL took care of me from beginning to end. She set me up with a great list of jobs throughout Korea, and I was lucky enough to interview successfully with my first pick. Chloe stayed in consistent contact with me over the following months and helped me navigate the complicated process of visa applications and Covid-19 travel policies. She always replied promptly to my questions and made sure I had all the resources to make my travel to Korea as smooth as possible.

I am very pleased with the placement and support I got from Seoul ESL and my recruiter, Chloe. Coming to Korea during the pandemic and finding a job in a great part of Seoul was something other recruiters said was not possible but it was an extremely quick and painless process. Additionally Seoul ESL guided me through some particularities that exist due to coronavirus. I would happily recommend this service to those looking to come to Korea to teach. This is my second time coming to Korea and it was even easier than the first, even with additional formalities.

I’ve already experienced working in Korea, I had a great deal of support from my former employer and was worried it wouldn’t be the same and as personal with a recruiter. Perhaps this is usually the case, but not with Chloe. To start with, she made me feel very comfortable in the screening interview and almost straight away had some preference-matching suggestions for me. This is particularly impressive considering the pandemic, the amount of people looking for work at the moment and academies choosing not to have as many foreign teachers due to lower attendance numbers. Chloe was patient with my because I was a little bit fussy with my location and the kind of academy I was looking to work for. My placement maybe took a bit longer than most. Teaching in Korea is hard and a lot of academies are far from perfect, but I had a lot of trust in Seoul ESL to not partner with schools that would treat their staff badly. I have already spent a year in Korea and I couldn’t recommend it more. I’m sure I’ll come into problems in and outside or work, but the part of the process that couldn’t have been easier and more supported was the job application and arrival
