Why There Is A Need For English Teachers In Korea

For the past few years, there have been massive campaigns and advertisements around the internet seeking English teachers in Korea. Today there are still various opportunities for people who are able to teach English in Korea whether it be online or from Korea. If you are an English speaking teacher, then deciding to spend some time teaching in Korea is a decision you will definitely not regret.

There is a scarcity of English speaking teachers in Korea as for many years most of the lessons that were offered in schools were given using their native languages. When that generation of children, whom had from an early age been exposed to and taught using only their native language of Korean, grew up to become teachers, they could only teach in Korean. Over the years there have been changes in policies and the country has become more international and the need to learn to speak English has greatly increased. There are Koreans who have maybe studied abroad or had special education and are able to speak and even teach English but not enough to fill the demand.

To be able to control and curb this situation, there are various opportunities that are offered to people whether they are Korean or from other ethnicities who are willing to teach English in Korea. If you qualify to teach English in Korea, there are special opportunities and experiences that you are bound to enjoy. Korea is known to be the home of some of the best tourist attraction sites. Due to this, those who secure the opportunities of teaching in Korea will have so much to enjoy: the traveling experience, the beautiful sceneries, the food and so much more. You will be able to travel to different parts of Korea including South Korea, Jeju-do, Gangwong-do among other places that are dotted with various attraction sites.

Koreans are also known to be very friendly people that you are able to easily get along very well with within the short period of your visit. And if you are the kind a person who loves food, then you are bound to get different types of Korean food that you will be sure to enjoy. Even though at first the food might not be what you expect, you will unquestionably enjoy it after the very first days of your stay, once you are acclimated to your location.

Most of the employers offer very good salaries with benefits that may differ from one employer to the other. The salaries may depend on various factors including the type of students that you are handling, the number of English lessons covered, the institution itself, whether room and board is included, amongst others. However, before starting to make arrangements to teach in Korea, you have to ensure that the Korean government and your respective embassy clears you and that you have a work permit as per the laws of Korea. You also need to make sure that you are recruited by a genuine agency that is recognized by both governments so that you are able to enjoy every bit of your stay in Korea without any issues. These agencies may be found on the internet and care should be taken to investigate their experience, references and recommendations.
