About Us
EDISEN Academy is seeking passionate teachers who believe they can bring out the best in elementary school children. Our institution was established in 2013 and currently has over 40 staff members and 900 attending students in two campuses, Daechi (Hanti station) and Bundang (Sunae station).
EDISEN admits students through a strict admissions process that ensures that our learners are ready to engage with advanced material. Their English proficiency is overall some of the highest in the country for their age, and all our students would have no problem immediately acclimating to classrooms abroad in English-speaking countries.
Our mission is to provide a safe, fun, and engaging environment for both students and teachers. In the classroom, students learn by interacting and discussing with peer groups while following the basic principles of Kagan Cooperative Learning. Your teaching will be supported and guided by a thorough curriculum developed by the EDISEN R&D Team.
If you are a teacher who hopes to be part of a dedicated and supportive academy, please send your cover letter and resume to edisenhr@gmail.com. We look forward to more motivated teachers joining our team and hope to hear from you soon.

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!
