Anyone here teaching in international school in seoul, esp. mokdong?

I am finding an international school for my daughter who will turn 6 next year. I intend to send her to an international school after kindgarten.
Since I don't have any idea about international school here in seoul, information of any kind will be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks a lot!

Out of my expect, there are not that many international schools in the area...

Money of course is one of my concern, I am also worry about their English requirement for admission. My girl is sent to a Korean kindgarten for learning Korean. Literally, her understanding of English is good but she can't really speak in the language. Anyone has idea roughlly what will be in a placement test or stuffs like this for international school admission for grade 1 /elementary student?

I think I still have time to do something on that...

Be careful!

From what I've heard, some international schools are full of Korean children who were simply born in the U.S. and barely speak any English.

I heard that too, so I wish I can get some clue from here, especially from those who are teaching in international school here in seoul.
