Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications do I need to teach English in Gyeonggi-do?

You’ll need to be a native English speaker from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, or Ireland, and hold a bachelor’s degree (in any field). These are the standard requirements for an E-2 teaching visa in Korea. A TEFL/TESOL certificate helps but isn’t always required.

Do I need to speak Korean to teach English in Gyeonggi-do?

No. Almost all positions are English-immersion, and your students and co-teachers will expect you to teach in English. Knowing some Korean makes daily life easier, but it’s not a job requirement.

Is OK Recruiting free for teachers?

Yes. Our service is completely free for teachers — the hiring school pays the placement fee. You get help with finding a position, visa paperwork, and settling in, at no cost.

What types of schools hire English teachers in Gyeonggi-do?

Mostly private academies (hagwons) and English kindergartens, plus some public and international schools. Gyeonggi surrounds Seoul, with high concentrations of openings in Suwon, Seongnam (Bundang), and Goyang (Ilsan). Schools here often offer higher salaries than the capital to attract teachers, with new positions year-round.
