I kinda fall into that category. I had no idea that you could even teach ESL in other countries. I always assumed you had to know the language to teach it. I am a US teacher now and I always wanted to teach on military bases. I got tired of dealing with these idiots in the states.

But to teach on a military base is very competitive, and a friend recommended the EPIK program. I was like "Korea??" "Why would I want to go and teach in Korea??" But she said it was pretty cool and you could travel and stuff so I said why not?

So initially I wanted to teach on military bases, but Im doing EPIK as my alternative plan. We'll see how it works out. And this economy is pretty rough in the US. I mean highly qualified teachers are having a hard time find a job.


It is possible to find jobs that start in the Spring, but of course, don't restrict yourself to just Korea.
Why aren't you considering international schools?



I didnt know about them either. lol


But I am ready to leave my current school already, and most international schools I assume start in August.

But I will try to apply for them next year. Im sure they are pretty competitive as well.
