Hi,

As I only have an unrelated bachelors degree, no teaching qualification and no teaching experience, will I be able to get a job teaching adults?

cheers

You meet the basic qualifications to be employed in South Korea, just as long as there is nothing to prevent you from receiving an E2 visa. Not sure about your background, but some kind of working with people skills would be a plus. Before coming check out the different opportunities from the job postings so you can get a sense for what type of employment options are available to you. From what you have said it is doubtful you would land a Uni job, but as far as public school or hagwon is concerned there are options available to you...

Both Pagoda and Y.B.M. E.L.S.I. teach adults exclusively. You can also work at one of the many teachers training centers supported by the Ministry of Education.
