| I'm not gaining any financial benefit if the position is filled and the only reason I'm posting to this site is because it's a good opportunity for a spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend of a soldier stationed in the Dongducheon Area.
The teaching position is at a public high school in Ji-Haeng, Dongducheon and will begin at the end of August. If you're at Camp Casey you probably know the area as "New City." I've taught at the high school for the last three years. However, I want to move to Seoul so I can be closer to my girlfriend and can take Korean classes in Seoul without spending 3 hours a night on the subway.
The requirements for the position is a bachelor's degree and citizenship from an native English speaking country. In addition I'd suggest that you have an open mind and a laid back attitude. If you can't take things in stride then you'll have a much less enjoyable time. My fellow teachers at the school are all very friendly and a pleasure to work with, but there are cultural differences that you have to learn to accept in Korea.
The benefits for the position, as far as I know, are 2.0 million won per month. Free airfare from the US (or other location) to Korea and back and free housing. The current apartment is a 2 bedroom apartment in Ji-Haeng. Also, I've usually had 2 weeks of vacation during the summer and winter breaks.
Like I said before, this is a good opportunity for soldier's loved ones to accompany them while making a decent salary and getting free housing in the process. Send me a pm or reply if you're interested or want more information. |
