EPIK Orientation Experiece | ESL Teacher in South Korea | Apartment Tour | Grocery Haul

My 2022 Fall EPIK Orietation experience videooo! I'm so excited to finally be sharing this. I wasn't sure I recorded enough content to put a video together because at the time, I was far too shy to openly vlog the experience but once I started editing it all came together wonderfully. As you will see, I was totally out of my element but I had so much fun. I met amazing people and learnt so much. I hope you'll enjoy the videooo!

Hey girl. I will definitely try putting a video like that together.

Im currently applying to Epik. Any general tips for the interview?

[@Shirley.sThirties]

I'd say the usual honestly, be yourself and be ready to show them that you can teach (if you're not a teacher already) by hyping up your energy and being confident. Hide any piercings and/or tattoos and just look good you know. All the best doll!

[@pearly_kamaxaba]

Basically, removing the nose ring?

[@triggerhappyeu]

What do you need in order to do this? Do you need a university degree?

[@Shirley.sThirties]

Hi yes you do. A degree in anything, it doesn't need to be in teaching specifically. Thanks for watching🌻

[@0rhythm_divine0]

Hey could you please tell me that if Indian nationals are allowed to teach English language in South Korea??
I mean we Indians are pretty good in English because of our colonial history....

[@Shirley.sThirties]

Hey there! So apparently yes, Indian nationals are allowed to teach English in South Korea however the only difference is that you need to have a valid teaching licence. You can find out more at this link: www.epik.go.kr:8080/contents.do?contentsNo=48&menuNo=275#:~:text=*Under%20the%20CEPA%20agreement%2C%20Indian,%2FTESOL%2FCELTA%20certificate)
BTW, I totally agree with you! Indians are generally proficient in English, South Africa has many people of Indian decent and there is a variety of black, white and Indian South Africans teaching here in Korea. Thank you for watching 🌻
