| for private schools, YBM ECC and Pagoda are big chains so might be good. for public schools, korvia are pretty good. |

Thanks. I'm finding mixed reviews online about YBM and Pagoda (Seoul, specifically). Know anything of Chungdahm, English Channel, Princeton Review or Berlitz?
I'm looking to teach in/around Busan. My goal is to save each month in order to travel the region extensively after my teaching contract is over - am hoping my TEFL certification will help increase my monthly salary a bit in order to save more. |

Too busy to scan back a page or 3?
(too busy to go to Korea).
In a word, FAQs.

ALL of these questions have been answered in the top 4 pages of this forum (with the exception of Berlitz).

While the irreverent tone of your response seems unnecessary, I do appreciate your directing me to the previously posted threads.
That said, know of any reviews of Berlitz? |

| Avoid recruiters, and avoid the chains mentioned. You could try Wall Street Institute, although I don't know if a TEFL qualification would cut it. |
