A recruiter said that you can only teach for your school if they send you out to a company ... and it can only be 30% of the total hours you work. Not the freedom to work anywhere on your own outside your school.
Any thoughts?
E-2 visa holders to be ...allowed to teach at firms
Foreign nationals holding E-2 visas granted to those who come to Korea to teach languages at private institutes will be able to teach at both private and state-run firms starting in December, said a committee co-organized by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and the Presidential Council for National Competitiveness, dedicated to regulatory reforms, in a report submitted to the council Tuesday.
So far job restrictions for E-2 visa holders have been relatively strict. They were only permitted to teach languages at middle and high schools, colleges and private education institutes, and organizations which have their own training center. |

You will be allowed to teach at a firm IF your primary employer (the school) agrees. The E-2 is still a sponsored visa and as such requires your sponsor's permission. The new changes just make it easier and legal. You can still NOT teach outside on your own. |
