| What's the current rate for kindergarten teachers? Suppose they have no experience. Suppose they have experience. Suppose they have a degree in early chilldhood education. |

2.0-2.2. For all of the above.
I thought ECE was a 2-year college program though, which unless coupled with a 3/4 year degree is ineligible for an E-2. |

| 2.2 to start at my school. Preference given to those with Ed degrees. 23 hours a week with a nice schedule. A decent deal for anyone just starting out in Korea. |

May depend on where you're from. Where I'm from, technical colleges offer two-year ECE degrees for people working in daycares, etc. Those seeking state certification (required for public school and HeadStart positions) must either complete a four-year undergraduate program complete w/ student teaching or a post-graduate program with a supervised teaching component.
That said, my school offers 2.2+ (depending on experience) for kindergarten teachers w/ early childhood or elementary certification. |

But to work in a Korean kindergarten on an E2 visa one would still need to have at least a bachalor's, even if a high school student with lots of babysitting experience could do a better job of it. |

That is correct. I was simply pointing out that in the U.S., at least, ECE is not necessarily a two-year program. Plenty of universities offer a full four-year ECE track leading to state certification, and a number are now offering MAT's in ECE as well. In other words, it is possible to have an ECE degree that fulfills the requirements for an E-2 visa. |
