WONDER. IMAGINATION. CURIOSITY.
We are a Twinkle branch located in Mapo area near Seodaemun Station which is an active business district in the heart of central Seoul. Twinkle has sister branches in Daechi, Bundang, Mokdong, and Songdo. We’re surrounded by museums, galleries, palaces, consulates, universities, restaurants, cafes, and are only a two minute walk from the train station.
Twinkle AP offers a unique curriculum that targets the top 1% of Korean elementary students. Our curriculum is designed to foster critical thinking and stimulate creativity through both fiction and non-fiction classes. Some of the subjects we teach are science, history, debate, creative writing, and essay writing. We are also planning to have classes for management science and artificial intelligence. Twinkle hosts various events per year such as our Annual Science Fair (this year’s objective is to build a Mars Colony and present it). Our mission is to educate Korea’s future leaders and inspire them to change the world. Twinkle students are self-motivated and communicate like native speakers.

Please mention that you found the job on Teast for the school's reference.
You need to be from one of the following counties to teach English in South Korea: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa. If you are not from one of those countries, you can still teach English in most other countries. This requirement is specific to South Korea and school's can only issue visa's to teachers from those listed countries.
Due to the high number of applications the schools receive they may not be able to respond to every application. If you don't hear back from them within a week or so, it's best to move on to the next job.
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy anything which they then pay you back for later. NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. Scams in TEFL are rampant, be careful!
