Hi all,

I'm looking for some good Facebook groups that will allow me to get in touch with current teachers in South Korea. From what I've read on here, it seems the best way to find a job is to first begin with the current teachers and figure out what schools are best. Does anyone know of any particular Facebook groups where people would be willing to personally connect with me and help me out?

Or if anyone knows of any other methods that would allow me to connect with current teachers, that would help as well.

Thanks!

None.
We can't have nice things, because people can't control themselves. It's funny how an expat facebook group with only a couple thousand members can be nothing but a wall of spam from recruiters/part promoters/desperate bloggers (including some of whom who are Korean)

Most FB groups are geographical. Choose the 3-4-5-6 locations you would like to be in and look them up based on city/province name. At least that's how it works in my neck of the woods.

Most groups of current teachers are closed groups with message invitations only. Recruiters and spam sellers ruined all the open groups.

Search Facebook by town or city, avoid general korean facebook groups. We use a facebook group in Geoje and it works well. Geoje teacher group, Tongyeong teacher group, etc.
