There are a few SAT type schools in the Gangnam/Hanti/Apgujeong area that do this. You'll probably need a degree from a highly ranked US uni to get the best jobs.
Good luck. |

| One elementary school in Haeundae was or is a pilot school for immersion. There was one teacher there who taught only math in English. |

we already knew that because in American English, math is a singular noun, as in the subject of mathematics.
that's why we also don't teach writings, or readings. |

Teelo,
There's a SMOE after school Immersion program in Junggu district that teachers subjects in English, including math/s. Why not contact SMOE or a recruiter and ask around? |

no, my kids aren't advanced enough for riting and reeding.
any particular reason you felt compelled to point out you weren't American (like we didn't immediately know by your usage of "maths")
or was that some point of interesting "pride"... being more baffling as it's impossible to understand just what exactly you'd be "proud" of, ESPECIALLY so if you were British. |

I was merely pointing out that this wouldn't be an option for me, as I know nothing about your SAT systems, and my degree is not from a US university.
It was more of a "rush post" than anything. |

My school does. I teach Language Arts, Math and Science to first graders. It's an immersion program. Unfortunately, they won't need teachers until March, and probably won't start looking before September at least. I believe they only look for people who are qualified teachers in their home country, but not everyone is, I think.
Why not look at international schools or schools with immersion programs? Or do you ONLY want to teach math and no other subjects? |
