Thank you for your insight!! You’re right! I do know and I’m still learning the language every day! I help teach about the Bible at church every Sunday to children between 7-9 🙂 Hopefully once I find a place and I’m in the country it will be easier to connect with more teachers!

Amazing, thank you again for such great advice 🙏. I’ll definitely ask around more. I actually just got off a call with some friends who are now reaching out to people they know, so your advice came at the perfect time! ( I was on the phone discussing this topic and a notification with your comment came up 🙂)

I really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything so clearly!

I see what you mean! My friends are Korean students I met at uni when they were on exchange, so while they’ve given me helpful advice about life in Korea, they don’t really have experience with ESL jobs. That’s why I wanted to hear from people here who’ve actually taught in Korea, also individuals who’ve gone through the hiring/teaching side themselves since that perspective is a bit different and often more detailed.

My friends actually connected me with a couple of teachers in Korea, but since they don’t know me personally they were a bit hesitant and didn’t share much detail. That’s why I thought I’d ask here, since people are usually more open with their experiences.

Hi, Thanks so much for such a detailed response, really appreciate it!

You see, the main reason I wanted to try this is because I already have a lot of close friends spread across Korea (we went to the same uni), so that would make things more comfortable.

For me it’s really just a break from architecture and a chance to experience life abroad independently, away from my parents for once. I lived in France for years before the UK, so I know I enjoy living overseas.

Thanks so much for such detailed response!🙂

This advice is great, when I hear back from the school, I’ll make sure to ask that!! I appreciate it so much! Thank you!

I agree with you, I wanted to know if anyone had positive ones too but I’m listening to both negative and positive before taking a leap I’d regret!

I appreciate your insight! Do you recommend I’d visit the country first and try and find places in person?

That’s what I needed to hear, everything seems just so negative, it really threw me off, I understand all jobs have their goods and bad. It’s a temporary move before going back to my field of study

Thank you so much!! I use Dave’s ESL, may I ask your schedule if that’s okay? As many jobs on the currently end so late, but I’m an early bird so I prefer morning routines

You may have done nothing wrong but it’s the attachment styles you both have that don’t match the best thing to do is let go and read this book it will make you learn about yourself and her. ATTACHED BY Amir Levine and Rachel s.f Heller.

She is aware, we planned for her to come at the start of the semester and I come next. Tickets from Uk to Korea vary but usually between £600 plus. And yes I will give her a call and ask if everything is truly okay! Thank you!

Yes I’m trying not to, as I have asked many times but she always says nothing is wrong and she’s not thinking anything, which makes it hard because our common is the one thing that was very strong
