can nebody get me a job at korea.wanna go so badd haha

Im graduating soon and Im thinking of going to foreign countries to teach english. Korea and Japan are my choices so far.

if you are caucasian, they give kind of a priority, as a korean american, my english is doubted. I am also graduating, anyone know of a way to go there and teach?

i don't know if i want to work there. I want to be a dentist. But you can be a dentist anywhere in the world...

Question?
You mentioned Caucasians have priority, do all foreigners or is it partial to just them? Specifically as a Black American I would like to know the success rate for Black American that speaks Korean to find employment in Korea.

Any Bachelor's degree? As long as you can speak good english? One of my professors said that Korean journalists receive pretty good salary. BUt then of course, I need to learn Korean first.

If you are korean and you speak korean and english fluently AND you went to a good school then yes you can find one. i know a lot of unnis that went to korea after they graduate college and work at like the ENglish hakwons(afterschools). that right there is good money =D

Citizens of any country where English is the official language (US, Canada, Australia, UK, South Africa, etc) generally get ~$2,000 a month, paid housing, and paid airfare (both ways). They definitely prefer caucasians though. If you are asian (even if you're not Korean), you might have trouble getting a job as a native speaking English teacher. But most hagwons work with a partner system - one foreign (AKA white) teacher and one korean teacher. If you are an American- or Canadian-born Korean, you'd probably have better luck looking for a job as a Korean English teacher (assuming you speak Korean) - but generally the Korean teachers don't get housing or airfare. Good luck!

Whoa!!! that's a lot!!! and there are fringe benefits, too!!! Too bad I'm not a caucasian coz yeah that salary is a lot higher than here in my country, like x4 to x8 depending on the job position...
