Who are you and what do you know about Korea?

We are a young married couple who got married in the States and two days later, hopped on a plane for our honeymoon in Thailand and Cambodia, followed by a flight to Korea to start our new lives together. We have lived in Korea for more than a year and have really been enjoying it. Before we came to Korea and even after we arrived, we had so many unanswered questions and unexpected surprises that we would have much preferred to know about beforehand. We have also learned a lot of things about the culture, students, benefits, contracts, employment options and more, and we want to share them so you won’t have to face the same unknowns. We have spent the last 12 months collecting information, getting our friends’ input, researching different options and studying our finances and benefits to put this book together.

Our goal is that after reading this guide, you will know, without a doubt, if Korea is the place you want live and teach or not.

One year is a big commitment, especially if it turns out to be something you weren’t expecting… in a bad way. We have talked to and heard of many teachers leaving as soon as they could save the money for a flight home. We don’t want that to happen to you.

Questions and Answers:

Do you give real, honest expectations, or do you sugar coat things to make Teaching English in Korea seem like the perfect job for everyone?

WE GUARANTEE NO SUGAR COATING. We tell you exactly what to expect, issues we’ve seen, frustrations others have experienced and always truthful information, not what the recruiter may want you to hear.

I have taught in America/Canada/Europe. Are the students and classroom behavior standards similar?

In a word, NO! This was one of our biggest surprises when we came to Korea. Find out exactly what we mean, and read some examples of classroom behavior in the guide.

I did a google search and found recruiters and jobs very easily. Why do I need your book to help me find a recruiter?

We have talked to many teachers here and have heard some great stories and some horror stories about recruiting companies and the schools they set teachers up with. We share a list of the best recruiting companies to go with so you can avoid scams.

I just looked up plane tickets to Korea and they cost about $1000 per one way ticket! How can I get more for my money?

We will explain how to get a tip to Japan or South East Asia on your way to Korea for only about $300 more per ticket as well as how to get your Korean work visa two weeks before your start date, while having three weeks or more to spend traveling before arrival.

I have no idea what to bring to Korea. Do they have normal everyday things like I can get at any supermarket here?

For the most part, you can usually get anything you need in Korea, but there are a few items that are almost impossible to find here, or are so much more expensive that they are just better to bring from home. We’ll give you a checklist of these items in the book.

I have no idea what I need to be prepared for and what I will need to do in order to go through the application process. Can this book help?

We go through the application process step by step, and we will give you an overview of what documents and papers you may need.

I have heard that there are two options for teaching, but it is easier to get into a private academy (hagwon) and they pay more. Which is better, Hagwon or Public School?

We will give you our opinion, but also the facts. You get an easy to read comparison chart with some of the finer points of the typical Hagwon and Public School contract requirements and benefits. We have also included actual Public School and Hagwon contracts for you to read for yourself and figure out what’s best for you.

What if I still have some questions after reading the guide? How can I get answers?

By purchasing this guide, you are also getting three months of consulting from us. Have a question about one of the contracts you read? Need some more information on a topic covered in the guide? Send us an email and we’ll be glad to provide an answer or find someone who can.

Are you serious about the guarantee?

Yes, buy the guide, read it and if you don’t feel like it has saved you at least 15 hours of online research or it would not help you avoid or anticipate at least five unpleasant surprises when coming to Korea, then let us know and we’ll buy it back from you. We want this to be helpful and worth your hard earned money.
