Do you love K-Pop, fried chicken, and kids? You might love teaching in South Korea! Even if those aren't your things you might really appreciate this episode. Listen as TEFL Teacher and World Traveler Kim Rodriguez shares actionable, practical tips for living and teaching in Asia.

If you've had your eyes set on teaching English as a second language, traveling, and becoming a digital nomad Kim can teach you a lot. In Season 2, Episode 10, we discuss everything from how to make friends in Korea to choosing the right school for you.

Kim has been living and teaching in South Korea for over eight years and is a great resource for anyone interested in the ESL teacher lifestyle. She has worked in the Korean public education system for a long time as both an Elementary Teacher and University Professor and currently holds a position as Visiting Professor for a Korean National University where she teaches English as a second language. She's traveled to 28 countries in 8 years while teaching in Korea, paid off debt, and acquired her master's without taking on a single loan. That's the power of a good ESL job.
