To qualify for teaching in Korea, you must hold citizenship from one of seven designated countries: the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, or South Africa. Additionally, a bachelor's degree is required, regardless of the major. While not mandatory, possessing a teaching license or a TEFL/TESOL certificate is highly recommended to enhance your credentials and increase your chances of securing a teaching position.
