Teacher Tutorials
We have created some helpful tutorials for prospective ESL teachers for Korea to better assist you in preparing to teach in Korea. Some of the videos are a broad overview of teaching, living, and working in Korea (6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 by Dr. B.) and some are more specific to different aspects of living or working in Korea.

TEIK Hosted Dinners
Every year, TEIK hosts two networking dinners for teachers, with one in the spring and the other in the fall. Teachers are invited to both events to meet other new teachers, make friends outside of their schools, and help foster a greater sense of community among TEIK teachers. We believe that the more friends a teacher has, then the more successful they will be socially and professionally while in Korea.
