The TEFL International TESOL programs in South Korea are for everyone. Many Asian countries legally require English language teachers to be certified. In Korea, many English teachers have been hired because they are native-speakers and university graduates. But that doesn’t necessarily mean they have developed the skills and tools to manage, and enjoy, the classroom setting. Non-native Korean teachers may be looking for direction and information on techniques and methods that are successful in other countries. Teachers that have been teaching for more than a year in Korea may have systems and methods in place to get through their job, but want a “booster” on how to add more variety to their classes and, make them more exciting, or help them reach lesson objectives better.
