About Us

 

This is Gwangju Songwon Elementary School.

The school is now privately operated.

We are looking for English teachers who will be teaching Grades 1 - 6.

 

Location Description

 

With a population of 1.4 million, Gwangju Metropolitan City, one of the six largest cities in Korea, is divided into five districts. Gwangju is also regarded as a city rich in culture and art, as evidenced by the on-going exhibitions and performances which make the city all the more vibrant and colorful. Every two years, the Gwangju Biennale features a two-month long contemporary art exhibition that invites international artists to display their theme-based work.

 

Gwangju has a cooler version of the humid subtropical climate with four distinct seasons and rainfall year-round but particularly during the East Asian Monsoon Season in the summer months. Winters, while still cold, are milder than in Seoul and cities further north due to the city's southwesterly position in the Korean peninsula. Summers are hot and humid with abundant precipitation, particularly in the form of thunderstorms. Gwangju is one of the warmest cities in Korea in the summer due to its geographic location.
