Pagoda Academy


Pagoda was founded in 1969 by Go In-Gyung and Park Kyung-Sil with the objective of developing foreign language education in Korea. Pagoda has grown considerably since then and currently employs over 100 foreign teachers who teach over 5000 students each month at 4 branches.

Pagoda is dedicated to providing students with unmatched programs. We are also dedicated to providing teachers with an opportunity to develop as they teach ESL, EAP and Business English to our eager adult students.
Pagoda Academy has realized considerable success and has developed a reputation for being a leader in the ESL industry in Korea. With the help of our friendly staff, great teachers, and programs we hope to continue this tradition.

Pagoda Academy is looking for experienced ESL teachers with a background in English education or with a degree in Education, English, Linguistics, TESOL or Fine Arts (Writing). We also look for teachers who have taken an Intensive course (DELTA, CELTA or TEFL) and are looking to use those skills to teach ADULTS. However, this is not to say that we don't accept applications from other candidates who may have graduated in a different
area of study (Business, Liberal Arts). Some of our teachers were not formally trained as teachers, but through their enthusiasm, work ethic and willingness to learn have become excellent teachers.
