South Korea - Irish Graduates' Top Choice for Teaching Abroad!
Of all the Asian countries, South Korea is one of the best to teach in, as the teaching profession is well respected and foreigners are given a warm welcome. All contracts are for 12 month periods. Schools offer very good salaries and benefits for TEFL teaching, thus making it an ideal place for people seeking a year of adventure abroad, while being able to save.
A group of 20 teachers depart each month and placements are on-going throughout the year. With our sister company - English Business, who are based in Seoul, we are able to provide you with support and assistance throughout your time.
You will receive your contract and working visa prior to departure and on arrival will be met at the airport by our representative and introduced to your school and local area. Full training, including a 60 Hour On-Line TEFL course and an orientation booklet are given pre-departure.
Salaries are between €1600-1900, and with very low tax rates, and local living costs, most teachers can save up to half of their salary. Teachers also receive severance pay of one month's salary at the end of their contract, therefore you receive 13 months pay for 12 months work. Contracts also include free flights, accommodation, and medical insurance.
