Being a Teacher
Your job is to improve your student’s speaking skills using role plays, music, debates, and
Q&A sessions. The teaching of grammar is usually left to Korean teachers. You will be
provided with the following materials:
 | Text books and Workbooks | |
| CD’s | |
| Songs | |
| Games | |
| Story books |
Most schools will give you some training, this usually consists of sitting in your co-workers'
lessons but after a few weeks you will probably find this is not necessary.
If you are used to organisation and a set routine then teaching in Korea will be a shock for
you. Koreans rarely plan ahead so don't be surprised if your schedule changes from week
to week. This is frustrating but our advice is to be flexible and don't take it too seriously!
The most important thing is that the children enjoy your lessons and go home to tell their
parents positive things about your class. Koreans rarely have the opportunity to interact with
foreigners. You are a novelty and are there as much to entertain as you are to teach. Think
of your students as your friends, let them express themselves but at the same time make
sure they know you have the control.
| You will have no more than 15 students in your class, usually less than 10 | |
| Homework is compulsory | |
| You may have to write test papers | |
| You may have to write a short report about your students | |
| You should dress informally but smart. Appearance is everything in Korea |
pants and a shirt and tie maybe compulsory in some schools but you will
be informed of your dress code before leaving.
