About Me
HI from South Korea.
I have been teaching in South Korea for a year and I am about to launch into a TEFL course. Yes, it will help and provide all sorts of useful tools to help in everyday teaching. It really is worth doing one before you start but I know many of us don't do it until we have already launched into TEFL teaching.
I love South Korea, the people here are generally very kind, very helpful, and very happy to have us here. You will read the odd horror story about being a foreigner in Korea, but the majority of us just love it and find life here very good.
There is a lot see in Korea, and its a wonderful way to start to understand another culture and way of life.

I have to admit to have my first really annoyed moment with the TEFL course! I have just completed the Young Learners Module. My understadning of the term 'Young Learners' was children aged between 5 and 12 years old. I did a huge amount of additional reading for this unit and everything I read talked about children aged within this range.According to my not so helpful Tutor this is not the case with the i...
