About the School
This established English kindergarten in Gangnam-gu’s Daechi-dong, one of Seoul’s best-known private education neighborhoods, runs a multi-year English curriculum that most students begin around age four. Because of that early, continuous start, children in some classes are noticeably ahead of the pace seen elsewhere: a class of six-year-olds in its third year of the program is already working through material that would typically be reserved for seven-year-olds at the same third-year stage in a more conventional program. Teachers here join a team of six current native English-speaking teachers working alongside experienced Korean staff, and can expect an unusually strong, well-prepared group of learners. The role is kindergarten-only, covering both regular classes and the after-school program.
