Teaching Locations In South Korea - City Directory |
|
| |
|
South Korea is made up of 9 provinces and 7 metropolitan cities. Seoul is the capital of South Korea and boasts the largest population of almost 10 and a half million people.
There are various uncontrollable factors why we cannot place applicants in every city at all times throughout the year. When we don't have positions in your desired city we will let you know and offer you a suitable substitute. The smaller cities employ less western teachers than the larger cities so if you want a smaller city please try to be slightly flexible and open to suggestions.
Scroll down the page to view the summary for each metropolitan city or alternativley click a province name to see what cities within that province we work with. Each city has an associated website for more in depth details.
