Yangsan City provides an upscale uncompromised urban living in an eco-friendly environment. It is the only city in Korea surrounded by two adjacent metropolitan cities- Busan to the east and Ulsan to the North, both within an easy 30 minutes commute! The city offers modern conveniences readily available for its residents. Eco-friendly, tech-ready and cutting edge amenities are in-line with the city's sustainability campaign. The city boasts of century-old temples, amusement parks, golf course, museums, art galleries, waterfalls, pagodas, and ancient feudal homes. Truly a neighborhood that is alive and dynamic, Yangsan radiates with an urban cosmopolitan vibe that makes anyone come home to a place where life can be live to the fullest.
THE JOB
Guest English Teachers GETs are required to conduct English conversation classes to Korean primary and secondary school students as part of the Korean government's aim to promote and strengthen English language education. A candidate should have a strong sense of creativity and motivation as well as enjoy working with learners from various age groups as part of an academic team. Teachers are expected to focus on the development of oral communication skills using interactive teaching methods.
These positions are contingent upon the satisfactory outcome (as determined by the board) of the pre-employment screening activities (including criminal history check and medical check) as required under the Korean Immigration procedures and the Korean Ministry of Education bylaws.
TEAM TEACHING SCHEME (ESL Co-teaching Scheme with Several Korean English Teachers)
Although, ideally the goal of the program is to carry on the entire English learning experience only in English, the ex-pat teacher does not exclusively do it. As per the EPIK’s procedure, each native teacher is paired with a Korean English teacher to successfully prepare and execute every lesson for the whole school year. The Korean English teacher is in charge primarily to handle issues of classroom management and collaborate with instruction and class preparation. He/She is also task to communicate effectively the curriculum goals of the district for the school year as well as help the expat teacher settle in Korea.

====================================================================================================================================================
IMPORTANT PUBLIC NOTICE
- At this point, emailed documents suffice. We understand that it is common for most HR Firms in Korea to require applicants to submit originals. However, we implore applicants to exercise extreme caution since originals are extremely sensitive papers, which are only necessary in processing a teaching visa called E2. Employers at both the public and private sector never require original documents during the application process.
- BE INFORMED that it is crucial to be represented by a duly license HR partner of the Ministry’s EPIK. Applicants working with multiple HR firms are perceived negatively by the authorities as it creates confusion. If your completed application has been submitted to the EPIK’s NIIED by one of the 18 duly license HR Partner’s of the Ministry, it will be in your best interest not to contact others including us.
However, be informed that out of hundreds of recruiters placing teachers in Korea, ONLY 18 have exclusive contracts with the Education Ministry’s EPIK and fewer have direct contract with independent school district hiring independently.
