| Private Schools |
Private schools in Korea vary greatly in size, curriculum and reputation. We have built a solid relationship with the schools
we have been placing teachers in for the past 6 years and encourage you to speak to the current teachers at the school before accepting
any position. No doubt you will have heard some horror stories about private schools in Korea, however we do everything we can to ensure
your sojurn goes smoothly and that starts by only working with tried and trusted schools. As mentioned, the schools themselves vary from
single teacher, owner-run schools to large franchise schools with over 10 foreign teachers.
With our large network of schools we can offer you the choice of school to suit your personality. This could mean the difference between working at a school in a rural area,
working in a school where you might be the only teacher and have a greater say in the curriculum and materials, to working in one of the
larger school where everything is provided and you follow a more rigid curriculum. The choice is yours and shortly after we receive your
application we will call you to discuss your preferences and what you feel would work best for you.
