Below is a copy of my resume and contact information. I am interested in obtaining a teaching position in Seoul or Gyeongg-Do province. I am looking to teach elementry students or older. I would prefer to teach Adults, College Students or High School students. I will also consider teaching elementary students, but no middle school or kindergarten! I repeat No Kindergarten!
Second important piece of information you should know, I was South Korea in October, 2007 and March, 2008. Both times I was working for a school in South Korea. The first time, I had serious culture shock and left, I was only there for two weeks. The second time I came back and was serious about teaching and living in South Korea, I was in Seoul not Busan for the second time, and I was fired by my principal. So she flew me back to the States. This should all put up some red flags about my situation. I want to try this one more time. I believe the third time will be a charm! I want to live in or around the Seoul area. Closer to others who can speak English. I would like a nice quite place to live with a nice western style bed, sleep is very important to me, and I will need to be well rested every night. The last school, provided nice housing, but it was a newly constructed building and students were living there, right near Dankook University, and it was too loud with students coming home late, making noise and the building was poorly or cheaply constructed allowing noise to travel into my room. So I need a nice, quite place to live with a nice bed, pillows, clean blankets etc. And a hot shower.
If you can provide me with these simple requests, and make sure I can come back to South Korea on a new visa, I would be willing to be your new English Teacher. I am also looking for a 2.5 mill won + contract, but would consider 2.1. I look forward to the responses and coming back to South Korea.
