Pay and hours
- Salary
- ₩2,400,000–₩3,000,000 / month
- This is an employment contract, so Korea's 2026 statutory minimum wage of ₩10,320/hour (₩2,156,880/month on the official 209-hour basis) applies to it. See salary data across all live listings.
- Per hour
- ≈ ₩22,100–₩27,600 per teaching hour
- Effective pay per hour (base salary only — housing is listed separately and not counted) is how you compare jobs with different schedules. Rates are approximate: the salary as advertised, divided by the hours as advertised. Where the employer gave a ceiling ("up to 40 hours") rather than a typical week, the real rate is the higher one — ask what a normal week actually looks like.
- Teaching hours
- 25 hours a week
- Actual classroom hours. Full-time hagwon roles in Korea typically run 22–30 per week.
- Time on site
- Not stated
- Hours you must be at the workplace, including prep and gaps between classes.
- Split shift
- Not stated
- A morning-and-evening schedule with a long unpaid gap in the middle of the day. Unpaid gaps do not count as working time, so a split shift lengthens the day without raising the pay.
- Weekend work
- Not stated
- Whether Saturday or Sunday classes are part of the normal schedule.
The job

- Contract
- Employee · Full-time · 12 months
- An employment contract (근로계약) carries the four national insurances (4대보험), severance pay (퇴직금) and the statutory minimum wage, whether it is full-time or part-time. A standard first contract in Korea is 12 months.
- Visa
- E-2, F-series visa
Housing and benefits
- Housing
- Housing provided
- Severance pay
- Offered
- Severance (퇴직금) and national pension / health insurance enrollment are legal requirements for full-time employees in Korea. “Not stated” only means the listing doesn’t mention it — ask before you sign. “Not offered” means the listing says no.
- National pension
- Offered
- Health insurance
- Offered
- Flight / settlement support
- Not stated
- Paid vacation
- 11 days
- Contract vacation days, separate from Korean public holidays. For context, Korea's Labor Standards Act §60 (근로기준법) — 11 days in the first year (one per full month worked), 15 days from the second, rising by one every two years to 25. Workplaces with fewer than five employees are outside this rule (§11), so ask how many staff the school has.

Milestone Institute is currently one of the most well-respected academies in South Korea. Its roots started over 18 years ago in Daechi which is located in the Gangnam district.
Our core curriculum is based on Reading and Writing using American textbooks, novels, and other non-fiction contents. We also have a very unique system that focuses on having no more than 6 students per class, so that teachers can give each student individual attention and care. This allows our teachers to build a stronger relationship with their students and help them excel in their studies.
