Footprints Recruiting, Inc.  We are a teacher placement and support agency based in Vancouver , Canada. Footprints works with public school boards in South Korea and China as well as reputable private schools in South Korea, Taiwan and China. We have found that many of these organizations, such as the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, require that all applicants they consider have either an Education degree or accredited TESL/TEFL certification. Unfortunately, due to governmental restrictions placed on teaching visas, we are only able to work with applicants that are native English speakers.

We are a teacher placement and support agency run by and for teachers.  Every employee at Footprints has taught for at least a year abroad.  We have employees that have taught in South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and South America.

Footprints will not only assist graduates in securing a placement but we will also walk them through the visa process, assist them in organizing their flights and provide with ongoing support throughout their contract.  We understand the stresses, because we have been there. We have a number of excellent opportunities available starting this month that we would like to introduce to recent graduates. Please contact me at careers@footprintsrecruiting.com if you have any questions.

Thank you,
