Hi Geraldine,
I’m so glad to hear that! Let us know if you have any questions.
Beautiful outfits! I love them all! I’m hoping to relocate from England to Korea as soon as I’m able. I really want to do a TEFL course. I have no degree but plenty of experience working with children professionally. I’m 40 next year and have survived cancer a few years ago. I need to do this because it’s something I’ve wanted to do for such a long time. I will be relocating myself, 4 of my 6 children (two eldest are in university) and my husband who works for the local government. Tell me I’m not crazy? I just want my children to experience a different culture and maybe gain bilingual skills. I love working with children and hope to become a children’s mental health practitioner eventually. I’m hoping there’s some scope for it in Korea. I absolutely love your site and thank you for taking the time to create such wonderful and helpful content 🙂
Hi Tara,
Awww, I’m so glad to hear that! Thank you so much for the kind words. You’re too nice. ^^
It will be challenging but I think you should pursue your dreams.
Maybe a quick solo trip to take the temperature of the country if you haven’t been yet?
It can be a bit hard to get a visa sponsorship without a degree.
The mental health sector is a growing industry in South Korea, so hopefully you can get into it as many children would benefit.
Best of luck! ^^
