Next Chapter Korea
A 6 month Journey To Your Korean Dream
tell me..
What would it feel like to FINALLY relocate to South Korea??!!
Really, imagine if you stopped thinking about teaching in Korea and actually DID IT.
Picture living rent- free (hallelujah!), comfortably enjoying life (shopping, entertainment, eating out, etc) AND saving money!
Here, you would stop just trying to learn Korean and learn it naturally through full immersion.
Yes, it’s possible to learn this beautiful language that you love through real conversations, meaningful relationships, interactions and daily life.
On a deeper level, you need this relocation (more than you probably want to admit).
You know moving to Korea would help you BREAK out of your comfort zone.
Where you are right now (your job, daily life, current social circle, etc) you aren’t being challenged enough, are you?
You know that relocating to Korea and becoming an English teacher will help you grow, explore your abilities and talents… learn who YOU are.
Ultimately you know it’s time to start a journey that helps you come out of your shell and become the confident, independent, brave woman you are meant to be!
But you don’t know how to get there.
You’re not sure exactly where to start in the application process. You’re overwhelmed by all the contradicting information out there and don’t feel confident in your ability to find and secure the job of your dreams (or any job really).
But you CAN have your relocation dream.
And you can get there with ease, security, and confidence that you’re ready!

Create a profession ESL lesson plan to submit in your application and know how to create fun and engaging lessons for your future students

““I enrolled in the Teach Live & Thrive in Korea course a while ago and I absolutely love it. It is so helpful! It was a great investment and there are so many sections that I go back to and it’s really helped me lessen some of my fears. A little background about me. I graduated from college in 2013 and, at the time, I was unsure of what I wanted to do with my life. I knew I wanted to travel, but I didn’t know how I would’ve pulled that off. So I started doing some research about ways to work and travel and that’s how I discovered teaching abroad. So, for the past few years, I’ve researched and researched and researched. Before I discovered the Hello Tonya Teacher website, I had already had a clear idea of the process, but not so much in depth as Tonya provides in the course. After years (literally) of going back and forth with myself, this course has helped me take the plunge and accept a position in Jeonju! In short, this course has been a Godsend!!”

““I had some information but it was all from different sources and information from all over the place..I wanted a location where I had verified information from someone who actually went through this process and knew what they were talking about. Before going through the course I had a lot of questions and they were answered from Google but I didn’t really know if Google had all of the right answers, so I was like let me find someone who has the right answers.””
