 |
|
I was wondering if anyone has or even knows of anyone who's ever had a F-4 (Gyopo) visa, being a native English speaker, without a college degree, but instead had a TEFL or another certification to teach and have taught in Korea legally.
Thanks^^.  |

| To my understanding regardless of being an F4 you must have a minimum of a BA degree to teach legally in in South Korea. There are those out there teaching illegally, but they take the risk of being caught. I am unaware of any extra benefits being given to F4 people in this regard unless something has changed recently... |

| A person with an F-4 visa , like those having F-2 and F-5 visas , must meet Korean legal requirements to engage in employment. To teach English that means a four year university degree. The person must register with the Dept. of Education , not Immigration. |
