I hope to take my family to South Korea and begin a new chapter in our career.

Wife: 15 years in Graphic Design - Painting - Master's in Art Ed.

Daughter: 5th grade

.....leaving Kansas.


Hoping to begin conversation with individuals who have or are currently teaching in Seoul.

Welcome to the forum.

What more precisely are you asking about?

I have been in a public school setting, my entire career. A close friend is currently employed at Seoul Foreign School and has been recruiting us for the past 5 years to look at teaching in Korea.

We would tell him each time...."we like our simple Kansas life"

Our life goals have changed this past year. We now would like to live small and save, save, save. As our goals are now to teach for the next decade and retire at 50 and 47, God willing our health remains good.

The Director of Human Resources has informed us that our information has been passed on to HS and MS principals and look forward to meeting with us at the UNI Fair.

Thank you, for the DoD idea. I will look into that option as well.

Can you inform me of the path that lead you to DoD schools? Thank you, in advance.
