English Overseas Resources

This is a continuation of my last articles Teach English in South Korea and Applying to Teach in South Korea.

There are many resources I was unaware of when I was researching my move from the states.  I found way more resources once I got here.  I am listing all of resources I can possibly think of.  These are resources I have used and other foreign teachers have used and I hope they will be helpful for you.  Never hesitate to leave me a question J

*Please note that resources will be added to this article at least once a week so always come back for new resources!
