Hello... new here!

I'm researching a stint teaching in Korea, but I wonder if I have to go for a full year. I'd like to do a six-month contract instead, if possible. Would I still get the same pay rate and round-trip airfare provided? How far in advance do I need to apply? When would be a good time to plan on going - like, when does the summer session start?

Thanks!

Any contract less than a year is very rare. And of the ones I have seen, they are usually summer/winter camps which are only a few weeks. I highly doubt they will pay airfares for shorter contracts as well. Korea is one of those countries where you may need to sign a year contract and leave half way though, although its not very advisable.
