Highly Rated South Korea Graduate Program

I have had a wonderful time while in South Korea. Initially, I thought that I would only stay for one year. However, due to my incredible experience, I decided to stay longer. I was placed in the country's south about 90 minutes outside Busan. My placement city was so beautiful and the Korean people in my town are so warm and friendly. My hagwon has been the best part of my experience. The children are the sweetest kids that I have ever met. And my director and coworkers have been nothing short of amazing. They've made my experience even better than anything I could have imagined. They've made sure that I'm a great teacher and have also gone above and beyond to make sure that I am okay even outside of school hours. I feel so loved and protected by my school and the community that I am living in. I am do glad that I went through TFT because I know that I could not have done all of the research and couldn't have made this move on my own. I am forever grateful and am excited to join the TFT clubhouse to explore teaching in other countries.

The initial steps in Korea were made quite simple with guidance from TFT and the ground agency here, my school now helps a lot with day to day stuff too which is nice. It was about a six-month period from application to arrival but there is a lot to do so I understood the lengthy process. The TEFL course was quite fun and interesting too. Overall would recommend.

I had a fantastic experience with TFT in getting to South Korea, the whole team is very lovely and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking at doing this sort of thing. The overall process can be overwhelming and I think Korea has one of the more strict visa processes and it seemed like paperwork was never ending but it is what it is and you get through it eventually. I had great support with everything from flights, insurance and getting my tax forms in order. The school was very welcoming and made me feel at home from my first day. The other teachers at the school had actually been there for quite some time already, one even there for 3 years! So it was a well rounded experience and I felt I had been put into a good environment.

A truly brilliant experience and wonderful team at TFT. I felt listened to and supported through out my whole journey in getting to Incheon, Korea! I had never really travelled very far from the UK and was quite anxious in even applying for this whole thing, but from my first call with Jamie, it was plain sailing from there. There is really quite a lot of work involved in moving abroad with completing the TEFL courses and paperwork beforehand and I really could not have done this alone and am grateful for the help from everyone involved. I've been very well supported since being here, my school is great and the local teachers are very helpful. I've made some great friends with locals and other teachers who work at my school and area. I am now planning my next move in Asia and will be going with TFT!

I had a wonderful overall experience teaching in SKorea with TFT. I managed to do a fast application as I was already TEFL qualified and some prior teaching experience! The process was a little bit stressful with the amount of paperwork required but I was supported fully the whole way through and any question I had were answered promptly.

My school was great, the initial few weeks to some getting used to but luckily with the support of TFT and local coordinator I was able to adjust quickly. I would recommend this programme to anyone who is a little nervous about going it alone and wants to meet people easily.

If you are not sure whether to go for a year of teaching because you think it’s gonna be hard to do it alone, you should just go for it. Advice coming from a first-time teacher. I saw a post on Instagram and decided to write up my profile while watching a crime show or was it cricket? At each stage, there was someone there to help no matter what, and even after getting to South Korea, they are still there checking in. If you have any issues while applying or after arriving it’s easier to sort them out with the help of this amazing team working for this company. Also, at the school I ended up at I’ve become close to the teachers and even went with them on a hiking workshop – half an hour walk 😂.

I had been looking at a way to move back to Asia and I reached out to the team and little did I know at the time that it was going to be a match made in heaven. Every person who I was put in contact with (Jaemi, Enzo & SJ) were extremely positive, welcoming and supportive. I reached out way back at the end of 2020, knowing full well that I wanted to be out in Korea by March 2022 and the team helped make this dream possible. They were easy to talk to, always answered my emails swiftly and in the know of every tiny detail following the changes to the intake process. I never felt stressed ( well maybe for the Epik interview, but even then SJ coached me on how to answer the questions with patience and confidence!)

Having spoken to other teachers who arrived this intake and having the horror stories that some had been through I am so greatful for this team of individuals who I felt were so supportive, helpful and who constantly checked in throughout the process and who have continued to do so since arriving almost a month ago. I am still settling in but enjoying the process so far and taking it day by day!

I cannot express enough gratitude for how easy this process was made for me by the TFT team and I would hand on heart recommend them if you are looking for a recruitment team to go through! Thank you guys for always answering my questions, even the really silly ones!

I had taken an interest in teaching abroad a few years previous, and hadn't had the opportunity or motivation to act on that interest until I came across an advertisement for The Fewer Things.
My initial interview made me feel confident and excited, and from then I always felt supported and in contact with the team as they helped me through each process. Moving to South Korea during a pandemic wasn't an easy thing, but TFT was always ready to give guidance.
TFT makes sure that you have interviews with reputable schools and always puts your preferences first.
What I really appreciated about TFT was how much they encouraged me to follow my gut, and really think for myself and what I wanted out of this experience. It can be really overwhelming to make all these decisions, but TFT helps break down each option and give you the confidence to make the choices best for you.
