|
|
I have a couple of years experience in Korea. I'm looking to head back soon. Ideally, I would have liked to work in a PS again but I don't want to wait until February for the next EPIK intake. So now I'm looking at hagwons or after school programmes.
I've had the idea of getting my documents together and paying for my own flight over there. That way I'm able to attend interviews in person, which will give me the chance to make my own impressions of the schools I interview for.
Can someone confirm for me that I would still be able to apply for a fresh E-2 visa if I have all my documents with me in Korea? Also, would a school running an after school program be able to sponsor an E-2 visa for me?
Finally, can anyone recommend any reputable hagwons or after school companies in Daegu? |

Having had a prior E2 , YES, you can come to Korea, get a job and do a visa run to Japan to get a new E2.
Yes, a PS with an after school program can sponsor an E2.
Sorry, no.

If you're from the US, getting your documents together may take until next Feb. |
