Hey, does anyone have any information on how to get a proofreading/editing position in Korea? I am certified and experienced ESL teacher and I know I can get a teaching job, but I really want to go into editing/proofreading/publishing. These jobs just seem a little harder to find. Let me know if you have ANY advice.
Thanks!
Meredith

there are a fair number of job for writing TOEFL books, especially for penning the lectures and readings. a little dry, maybe not what you had in mind...

i've also seen a bunch of ads from the local dailies advertising for full-time copyeditors.

& every now and then a large company with overseas clients will advertise for an editor. don't wait for the ads; try cold-calling.

unfortunately, while there are a few part-time positions, they are not available legally to those on an E2 visa.

it may be easier for you to just find a school that lets you do in-house writing and editing as part of your contract.

ROBT.
