Everything you need to know about applying (and getting hired) for the EPIK program

Everything you need to know about applying (and getting hired) for the EPIK program Sangsangnim! Also known as “teacher” in Korean. This is a term that you will become very familiar with after you land, settle in and indulge in the incredibly rich culture as an EPIK program participant living and teaching English in South Korea. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. You want to find out more about the EPIK program and how to become an English teacher in South Korea and we’re here to tell you everything you need to know. So let’s dive right in! EPIK is your gateway into South Korea’s vast public school system. It is by far the largest employer for teachers in South Korea, but what’s the difference between the public and private school systems there? Public vs. private schools in South Korea. Private academies, also known as Hagwons, are more likely to function as a business than a school. Teachers will often get paid more here, and work with more foreign teachers as they will often be completely English-focused schools. Students will go to a Hagwon for kindergarten or arrive there after school for English-intensive classes. I personally taught at a Hagwon and was lucky enough to end up in a great neighborhood in Seoul, which is right where I wanted to be. The trickier part about my experience working at a Hagwon, however, wasn’t only the longer working hours than my friends teaching at a public school (about double the teaching time). It was the number of students being pulled out of, or put into classrooms in the middle of a term. Because Hagwons are businesses, you’re often being told what to do by the parents (business patrons), and usually, have to do what they say! Public schools, in contrast, function through three government-run programs: Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (SMOE) recruit for more than 2,000 schools within Seoul, the country’s capital. Gyeonggi English Program in Korea (GEPIK) recruit for all public schools in the province surrounding Seoul. English Program in Korea (EPIK) are affiliated with the Korean Ministry of Education and recruit for public schools everywhere else in South Korea. These are, by far, the best programs to teach English in South Korea. You will sometimes be earning a little less, but the programs look after their teachers very well, and you will have more free time to learn Korean, see some sights, or whatever you want to do with half the teaching hours than at a Hagwon! All. About. EPIK. Sign up to Teach Away today for access to the latest teaching jobs around the world. EPIK is an incredibly secure program with a great orientation into the country. You can still end up in one of South Korea’s big cities, or in a more rural village, but the program has a lottery system and you ultimately may not end up where you choose. You may also be the only English teacher at your school. But don’t despair! Public schools are a great place to work, and the workload tends to be much lighter than at a Hagwon Sweet! So who’s qualified to teach with EPIK? Any native English speakers with a bachelor’s degree and citizenship from the following countries: Australia Canada Ireland New Zealand South Africa The UK The US You will need a college degree to anywhere in Korea, and the EPIK program is no exception. However, this degree does not have to be in teaching or other related specializations. EPIK requires no prior teaching experience and no degree in teaching whatsoever, which means it’s a great place to start if you’re interested in heading off to teachers college eventually, or just getting a year of teaching experience in to then go teach in other places in the world! Candidates who meet EPIK’s program requirements will also have to have no criminal record, pass a health check and go through all of the steps in getting an E2 work visa. If you’re looking to maximize your chances of getting accepted into EPIK, You will also have a much better shot at a successful EPIK program application with a TEFL. Is a TEFL certificate required to teach with EPIK? Yes. For jobs at most South Korean public schools, you will need to have a TEFL certificate that’s at least 100 hours in length.

Aside from it being a set requirement, taking a TEFL course will help prepare you for things like managing your classroom and planning lessons once you’re accepted into EPIK. That way, you’ll know what to do when kids start climbing on tables, or an overworked student falls asleep on your watch. The scoop on your EPIK (get it?!) salary and benefits.

Here’s the great contract deal you’ll get with EPIK: EPIK pay scale ranging from $1,700 - 2,500 USD (or 1.8 - 2.7 million KRW) per month Settling-in allowance of around $300 USD (around 300,000 KRW) $1,250 USD (paid in KRW) towards your flight Furnished housing Health insurance Pension contribution 18 vacation days, 14 national holidays and 11 sick days If you end up teaching somewhere rural, you may also qualify for an extra $100 USD (100,000 KRW) each month.

At your school, you will be expected to work a full 40 hour week, even when you don’t have classes to teach. You will have around 3 to 5 classes a day, leaving you with plenty of downtimes to socialize, learn Korean, or whatever you find to fill the time. You’ll get to know both your fellow teachers and students very well, which means lots and lots of snacks and treats at most hours of the day, in my own personal experience. Where will I be teaching? The short answer is, it depends. EPIK places teachers all over South Korea, except Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. And although you can rank your top 5 choices on your application, you won’t actually get to choose where you end up. Do I have to apply to teach with EPIK through a recruiter? Not necessarily. You can either apply directly through the EPIK website or get the help of a recruiter specifically working with EPIK. Recruiters add a little extra something with their knowledge of the school system, work visa process and ensuring your contract is kosher. I personally went through a great recruiter who even visited the school I was working at during the year to check in. Before I made my choice on private vs. public school teaching in South Korea, he walked me through all options and scenarios very thoroughly. They also sometimes provide assistance after arrival and are good contacts to have after you arrive in a foreign country. Make sure to choose a reputable recruiter to avoid any potential opportunities to get scammed. What’s it like to teach in a Korean classroom? Korean children are passionate, focused, fun, and very, very smart. They often attend school during the day, followed by a variety of academies from math, to music, to English - sometimes several in one evening- before heading home to work with a tutor and finish their homework. As you can probably tell, they are pushed very hard from a young age, which is why it’s important, as a teacher, to inject some fun into their day along with the learning! They will have a lot of questions for you as a foreigner, anything from the color of your arm hair to whether your family is back home missing you. Some will speak near-perfect English, while others will know little to none, and it’s your job to keep them focused, learning, while always keeping in mind- hey, they’re kids! Again, your TEFL course will help you learn tips, tricks, and gain confidence in how to reach these children in a positive way.

Understanding the Concept of Instantaneous Rate Chemistry

Understanding the Concept of Instantaneous Rate ChemistryInstantaneous rate chemistry is defined as the rate at which chemical reactions occur. These are typically faster in nature compared to reaction rates that take time to be initiated and complete such as dry cell chemical reactions.You may have heard of the term 'instantaneous rate chemistry' or perhaps you are familiar with the term but are not fully aware of what it is. Basically, it is the rate at which the rate is converted from one chemistry process to another. In other words, the rate at which chemical reactions happen as opposed to the amount of time it takes for them to occur.When it comes to chemical reaction, instantaneous rate chemistry refers to the fastest reaction that occurs. Typically, when a chemical is being manufactured, the materials that go into the process must undergo a series of chemical reactions in order to properly form the material. These chemical reactions may be categorized into two types - physical and organic. Chemical reactions that occur in a process within the earth's crust have instantaneous rate chemistry, whereas chemical reactions that occur in the atmosphere or in outer space are usually not instantaneous.There are many reasons why chemical reactions take a long time to occur. However, you can obtain much faster chemical reactions by using the latest technology to speed up the process. This includes adding chemicals to the material that you will use in a chemical reaction or by heating the material to very high temperatures.There are many different methods used to speed up these chemical reactions. Chemical reaction rate can be determined by taking into account the density of the material to be used in the reaction. If you create a concentrated solution using chemicals that are denser than the solution they are mixed into, then there will be more of the material in the solution to combine with the other chemicals in the process. Therefore, the reaction will take long er to begin.In addition to rapid chemical reactions, you may also want to consider instantaneous rate chemistry when you are shopping for a chemical. In this case, you will want to use the chemicals that will increase the speed at which you will be able to perform your chemical reactions. By doing so, you will be able to make chemicals that can be added into a chemical reaction quickly.At its most basic level, instant chemistry is the rate at which a chemical reacts. Therefore, it is possible to determine instant chemistry by taking into account the speed of the chemical reaction and by knowing the type of chemical to be used in the reaction.
