I've saved a couple blog posts from that time in order to share a snapshot of what life was like for me as an English teacher at two rural schools outside Ulsan.

I no longer have my how-to-apply posts because they're surely out of date by now, but if you have any questions about teaching in Korea, I would be more than happy to share my advice. Just send me a message!
