A Day in the Life of an English Teacher in South Korea

[Sooners4ever25]

No wonder kids in south Korea are so smart. They learn things I learned in 3rd and 4th grade way earlier. And theirs less kids in each class which means more individual attention and less distractions. I wish high school was like this.

Bessie and Kyle, you guys rock!

I am seriously considering teaching English in South Korea; maybe you can help me! Are you guys certified TEFL instructors? If so, what is the best place to get certified? Is an online course okay, or should I look elsewhere?

Adorable little kids :3 Are the hard to teach? They seem cutely obedient :)

[GoneTeaching]

Cute kids. I miss my class back in the old days in South Korea.

Oh, this is a lovely find! I have wanted to do something like this but my time is up now! Great job, guys!

Thanks for the video. I suppose I have only one question. Would you recommend teaching in Korea?

[JHSjalisco]

I have the same question as spsidedownfrintwards.... is it just for rich korean kinds???

[bessieandkyle]

While it is a private "academy" nearly all middle class kids attend these in addition to their public schools. I wouldn't say it is exclusively for rich kids as many parents put all of their money into educating their kids at an early age. However, it is not exactly cheap as well but we have a number of kids on "scholarship".

holy molly :P is this a special school just for rich korean kids?

[bessieandkyle]

I wouldn't say that they are short on money, but I wouldn't call them rich. This is pretty average for Korean school standards.

[upsidedownfrontwards]

Oh. so is this school separate from the ''regular'' schools that they attend, or does this school teach math and english etc? :P
