ESL Jobs in Korea
Do you know every other school is different? Here are things you need to consider. Plus March~April starting positions.
Experienced instructors know that salary and working time are not only important, but others are also important. It is because every single schools are different. Here are some things you should consider.
Having Prep time ( you might need to make lesson plans, prepare for classes, report cards, comments to parents or grading tests)
Other native English teachers ( meet people who are in exact same situation you can get a lot of help if you need)
Paid on time
Knowing what age group you want to teach. Kids, teens or adult.
Knowing this is full time job, it is hard but it is rewarding when students are improved or when they give you little thankyou card.
I suggest good schools that I worked for a long time, so I can give details as much as possible.
