Private Schools are schools where the students go to school during regular school times but where the parents have to pay extra for their children to attend. In some cases there are a couple tiers to the private school leveling system where the government may half subsidize tuition or where they will provide some sort of funding for a student and there are other private schools where unless you have a scholarship or rich parents the doors are shut.
Footprints Recruiting works with a couple different private schools around the world. These are not to be mistaken with private language schools where students study before and/or after school. Private schools are often where the elite of society send their kids and as a result, private schools generally hire experienced and qualified staff for their programs.
That being said, like public schools, often demand exceeds supply and these schools will consider candidates with experience with kids and high recommendations from Footprints.
Private schools are often mistaken for international school teaching jobs. International schools teach curriculum from the US or the UK or Canada in a foreign country and most often these international schools are open exclusive to foreign students. These are super expensive. If you are heading overseas with kids this is a consideration but often impossible because of the high school fees.

“I'd like to start off by saying that my choice to teach abroad in Korea was one I know I will never regret! Footprints made it very easy to communicate with the school regarding details of where I'd be living and what I'd be teaching as well as taking care of my flight information. At the airport the morning we left, my boyfriend and I encountered overweight bags and extremely long lines at security, and we missed our flight by literally one minute. As we watched our plane pull from the gate, we just about lost our minds and any hope that we'd make the long journey we'd been planning for so long. We made one simple phone call to the travel agent, Claus, that Footprints set us up with. It was 6AM where he was on a Monday morning when we called in a panic. He said, "Stay by your phone," and we knew that he would fix this fiasco for us. Luckily, while Claus was searching for a solution, a woman from United Airlines was able to book us on another flight so that we would make our connection out of the U.S. to Seoul. We would like to thank Claus and Laina at Footprints for all their help in getting us to Korea!
