Welcome to RISE Yongin!
We believe learning should be fun, interactive, and inspiring, and our goal is to create a positive, engaging environment where everyone can thrive. Our campus is directly managed by RISE headquarters, which means our teachers and staff benefit from dedicated administrative support. Our students are bright and motivated, and many of our upper-level learners have achieved outstanding results in national competitions. We’ve had winners in the RISE Writing Competition, TOEFL Primary (Steps 1–2), and TOESEL (Starter, Junior, and Basic levels).
What truly makes our campus special, though, is the people. Many of our native English teachers have chosen to stay with us for the long term, which speaks volumes about the strong sense of community and the supportive culture we’ve built together.

New teachers receive comprehensive online and on-site training to set them up for success in the classroom. What matters most is a genuine love for teaching, a creative spirit, and a positive attitude. If you enjoy working with kids and believe that learning should be fun, you’ll fit right in.
