[RISE] ESL Teaching Positions for Inexperienced/ First Time Teachers/ Play-Based/ Travel Enthusiasts/ Gain Work Experience/ Enjoy Korea
My name is Derek and I am the executive director for Embark Recruiting.
Embark Recruiting started in 2003 as a Native English Teacher recruitment agency. We provide information about teaching and working in Korea.
Personally, I have a lot of experience being on both sides of the recruiting process and understand how difficult it can be. My, and Embark Recruiting’s, goal is to make the process as smooth and painless as possible.
At Embark Recruiting we really care about our teachers and always try to look out for their best interests. Please check out HERE for more information about our relationship with teachers.
Let me help you find your dream job!
Rise Korea was first established in Korea in 2014. It has since been recognized through its innovation and sincerity of education by many parents. While spending the most important time of their lives at RISE campus, students are molded into talented and competitive potential global leaders through programs that have not yet been offered by domestic educational institutions. In this recognition, Rise continues to expand significantly in Korea and throughout the world.
Curriculum/Programs
RISE offers a premium, subject-based English language, and leadership training program to children 3 to 12 years of age. The program is based on proven, award-winning content from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), the largest and most established K-12 publisher in the world, with some 200 years of Education History. Their foundational content is used by over 5 million students in US classrooms on a daily basis.
