Update: I know nothing about these people, I just received an email. However, it sounded like something that would be worth looking into for folks who are on their own and looking for work for themselves or their grad students.
Currently, we are working hand in hand with several local Korean government agencies to recruit qualified teachers from the United States.
Since 2007, AST as nonprofit organization has been focusing on cultivating global talent for education, and representing American teachers’ right in South Korea. As an effort from our office staffs, all 1200 schools which are involved in Gyeong-gi Do and other cities from elementary schools to high schools have hired over 600 English speaking teachers from the United States.
From this fall semester 2012, over 200 teachers from the United States has been participated in our program in South Korea. You may contact our teachers through AST Facebook page.
