Allowance & bonuses
Settlement allowance, plus completion and renewal bonuses.
Exact terms are set in your contract — we help you secure and verify each one before you sign.
The problem
Teaching abroad shouldn't feel like a gamble.
Most teachers start alone — scrolling random job boards, unsure which school is stable, whether a contract is fair, or who to call if something goes wrong.
"Is this school even legit?"
Unknown academies, mixed reviews, and no one on the ground to ask.
"Is this contract fair?"
Hours, housing, pay, and terms buried in fine print you can't verify.
"Who helps me in Korea?"
No local contact when questions, paperwork, or problems come up.
You bring the passion. We bring the map.
We're your guide on the ground in Korea.
You want to live in Korea, teach children, and grow — with as little risk as possible. We get you there through a private, human matching process instead of a noisy job board.
