Public schools in Korea offer a great working environment and are perfect for those who want to get the real Korean experience.  The structured teaching schedule allows teachers to enjoy evenings and weekends off while sharing their knowledge with Korean students and teachers.  Teachers who are hired to work at public schools work directly for the Korean Ministry of Education.  These jobs are ideal for people who are intersted in teaching as a profession or those who want to gain international experience.
