Just
to reiterate: Our goal is to send quality teachers to quality schools,
period. If you want to work with a company that all of the employees have
lived, taught and placed teachers in Korea for over ten years, and who will
continue working for you after you arrive in Korea, then teachenglishinkorea.org would love the opportunity to work with you. Unlike other recruiters, we at T.E.I.K. pride ourselves on helping build our
teachers social network by introducing new teachers to our current teachers
that are living in Korea to help build a sense of community and to help our
teachers smoothly transition in to a new country, culture and adventure. Most
recruiters are Korean, Korean schools or Korean owned agencies and they care
mostly about the school, T.E.I.K. on
the other hand is teacher centric, where your needs come first. Other
recruitment agencies believe that their job is finished the minute you arrive
in Korea, but we at T.E.I.K. believe
that our job is only half finished and we keep in contact throughout your
entire placement. Check out our testimonials pages (testimonials
I & testimonials
II) and feel confident that you will
be working with a company who you can understand and more importantly, who can
understand you.
If
you are not 100% certain that you feel that you would be a great candidate to
teach English in Korea, then don't waste both of our time because we only want
to work with caring and honest individuals who have an adventurous spirit, love
to travel, meet new people and who love teaching children. We hope that you
choose to go to Korea through us and have an amazing experience like we did,
you won't regret it if you decide to go. I paid off $25,000 in student loans in
my first 15 months in Korea and the average teacher saves $15,000-$20,000 per
year. All of us at TEIK were able to meet new lifelong international friends,
learn about an ancient culture, travel to several exotic neighboring countries
and have fun doing it!
