Nunchi: Teach, Grow & Live in Korea

Teaching English in Korea is far more than just a job--it's a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in a dynamic culture, contribute meaningfully to students' lives, and grow both personally and professionally. 

 

As someone who has taught in Korea since 2003, I've documented the evolution of the English education landscape through multiple policy changes and market shifts. This E-book synthesizes observations based on real experiences and practical knowledge accumulated over two decades in various educational settings throughout the country.

​

This E-Book provides comprehensive information on qualification requirements, application procedures, contract considerations, classroom management techniques specific to Korean educational contexts, and strategies for professional advancement. Additionally, sections on daily living, financial planning, and cultural integration offer practical frameworks for successful adaptation.

 

With this guide, I hope to help others navigate the path I once walked--to avoid common mistakes, embrace the adventure, and seize the many opportunities that await. For those willing to approach the experience with an open mind, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to learn, Korea can be a place of profound transformation.
