Korvia Consulting - Teach English in Korea

Overall I have had a very positive experience working with Korvia. They were extremely helpful from the start as well as after I arrived in Korea. They were very quick to reply to all of my emails, but also very patient with me when I experienced delays with getting my documents together. They knew exactly which documents I needed as well as how to get a hold of them. This was very helpful for me since I have never done anything like this before. Even after I arrived in Korea, they would check up on me to make sure I was settling in okay. I feel very safe knowing that I can count on them too if ever I need help with anything. Thanks Korvia!

Very positive experience with Korvia. They really helped and guided me through every stage of the process. I would highly recommend them!

The process of applying for a Korean visa is long and tedious with many steps. Korvia help break it down through webinars and emails to make each stage easier. I don't think I would have completed it by myself.

The pre-interview webinars were extremely helpful too, going through interview questions and setting up your camera, giving tips on clothes to wear and background.

I have experienced great customer service communicating with Korvia! Communicating through email was swift and professional, I cannot recall a moment where I waited for a response. I always felt supported and listened to and no question was too big or too small for my coordinator. Korvia ensured that I was comfortable with every step of the process. Even post application and orientation, Korvia are still contacting us all to ensure that we are all happy, healthy and comfortable in our schools and accommodation. Korvia are also open to hear about our concerns with our school and accomadation which is reassuring.
If I were to go through this process again, I would definitely apply through Korvia.

Korvia Consulting are very knowledgeable in all steps required to find a position in Korea or China including: searching for a suitable teaching position right through to helping with the visa process. Any questions are always answered in a prompt manner and problems are resolved quickly. I have always been pleased with the fantastic services Korvia offer and the whole team strives to do their best in helping secure a position overseas. Fantastic recruitment agency and I wouldn't use any other when searching for a position in Korea!

Pyeongtaek is a great city to meet a wide variety of people! The city is segmented and not the easiest to get around in without a personal car. Having said that Korea's public transport system is unbelievably good, you can get around to every single part of the country without your own transportation and you never have to wait longer than 15 minutes for any form of transport! There is an excellent balance between areas of scenic natural beauty and spots of well developed infrastructure. The city is well located within South Korea and easy to travel out of to any other places you so desire. The people are relaxed and friendly, but it still has a nice bustling energy! Would recommend for most types of people! The only advice I can give to people coming alone is to not get caught up in being alone; go out, make friends and do things! Do not chill at home unless you are dead tired and are basically sleeping!

I had a fantastic time working with Korvia. The process was nearly stress-free from beginning to the moment I walked into my accommodation in South Korea. My questions were always answered and I was always kept up to date. The only troubles I had were due to COVID-19 regulations that were changing how certain things were processed. Other than that, I was told exactly what would happen next. I highly recommend working with Korvia whether you're going through EPIK or looking for a recruiter for other opportunities.

As long as you have your Tefl certificate, Korvia made the rest of the process very easy! Korvia partnered with a few other agencies to make things like the background check and apostilled documents very easy to receive. When I studied in Korea I did that on my own and it was very complicated. Thelma and Eileen were very kind and helpful throughout the entire process~ Even after you start teaching, you can still reach out to your recruiter for advice or help. Definitely recommend Korvia if you’re looking to teach in Korea :)

I was an English teacher in China, looking to make a change, so I decided to set my sights on South Korea through the EPIK program. Being an American, trying to organize my application from China... it was definitely playing on hard mode, but Korvia patiently and expertly helped me through it. Thanks to my main contact Steven Shin, as well as some much needed assistance from Emma Lee regarding my E-2 visa, everything managed to click into place, and I arrived at Seoul for orientation. Trust Korvia - they know what they're doing!
