South Korea is often overlooked by travellers and for this reason has become one Eastern paradise that has retained its natural beauty, culture and traditions. Teach during the week in bustling cities or quiet towns, travel in style on the new KTX bullet train, enjoy weekends at the beach, nights on the town and world-renowned cuisine. Koreans value their visitors and the environment so it is one of the cleanest and safest places to go and they are noted as being some of the friendliest and most hospitable people in the world. As a TEFL teacher you will have the chance to work with young enthusiastic students as well as be introduced to the Korean way of life.
When you book our 100-Hour Combined TEFL Course, we’ll arrange your FREE teaching job placement in a reputable school or language institute. By availing of our job placement service, you won't need to worry about any job-hunting, researching, CV-sending and making sure the job is reliable—you can leave that to us!
South Korea Testimonial: “The other teachers and the director at school are really nice and they really made me feel welcome. Seoul is a great city. There is a great nightlife and plenty of places to explore. I have also managed to travel around the country a bit. They’ve got some beautiful beaches all down the east coast. And some other cool cities like Busan and Kwang-ju. All in all, this is by far the best way I could have chosen to spend my year off. I would recommend it to everyone.” - Neill Briody
