Meet Our Recruiters
"I was about to graduate from the University of Western Ontario with my education degree, when I saw an ad to teach English in Japan. It piqued my interest so I immediately applied. After all, what better way to gain teaching experience and travel to a part of the world I had always been fascinated with, right? Soon after, I boarded a plane bound for Tokyo and what started as year of living overseas quickly turned into five! There was never a shortage of things to do...from spending a day visiting one of Japan's many historical sites, to eating in one of thousands of amazing restaurants, to dancing the night away in a downtown nightclub, or just hanging out in a park under the cherry blossoms in the spring. I also traveled to places like Korea, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Guam, and Hong Kong. I loved my job teaching English and really felt like I made a difference with my students. I enjoyed the opportunity to make friends with other teachers from over the world, as well as some fellow Canadians. Finally, I’m proud to say that I was offered several promotions that helped me develop and expand my professional skills. No matter what country one goes to, teaching overseas is an adventure that you will never regret and never forget!"

Overseas Recruiter"My time in South Korea was intended for a year, but evolved into an 11-year tenure as an L2 educator, Faculty Manager, Senior Instructor Trainer—and now, an International Recruiter. My experience with Creverse led to many global opportunities including a year in Vietnam where I had the chance to work with the Vietnamese education market and instill our organization’s values within their administration and pedagogical approach. My extended experience with Creverse not only inspired me to further my own education, but it also financially afforded me the possibility of acquiring a master’s degree in Global Studies in Education—from one of the top universities in the US. Today, as I finish my thesis in Cape Town, South Africa, I reflect on my journey, and thank myself for stepping out of my comfort zone and making use of the benefits of working abroad—especially for an organization like Creverse who presented me with prospects exceeding my expectations."

Overseas Recruiter"I visited my best friend in Seoul the summer before senior year, and within those four days, I fell in love. Graduating with an English degree, it was the most seamless decision and teaching at Creverse truly changed my life. I planned to stay for one year, but ended up teaching on and off for five years, and becoming an Instructor Trainer at Training Center, ushering in all the new folks who made the same decision I made. It granted me so many opportunities, giving me the financial stability to be able to travel to over twenty countries for months at a time. The fact that I can say I spent my weeklong summer vacation in the Gobi Desert, ate my way through Jeju, and even had enough money to take time off and pursue tattooing in South Africa (on top of still making a huge dent in my student loans) is a dream to me. But aside from those perks, simply teaching and living in Korea was the most generative and blissful experience I've had. To be able to spend time and form relationships with my students was a privilege, and I'm humbled by all they've taught me about the world and myself. I say this all the time, but my time in Korea made me who I am now. As I've moved onto new ventures in New York, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about my time at Creverse, and am excited to facilitate that same feeling in others as they embark on this journey."

Overseas RecruiterMy journey as an Overseas Recruiter specializing in South Korea began in 2017 and it has been an incredible adventure! Stemming from a multicultural family and having travelled to many locations around the world, I've had the privilege of witnessing the transformative power of cultural exchange. It has given me a firsthand understanding of the importance of nurturing connections and creating bridges between people from diverse backgrounds. Seeing the impact that a teacher can have on a student's life inspires me to continue connecting educators with their ideal teaching positions abroad. I'm deeply passionate about helping and I take pride in being a reliable presence throughout the entire process.

What Our Teacher's Have To Say...
I can’t believe that I’ve already been here for 8 months.
Teaching has been fun. I really enjoy the students! I’ve also been able to explore a lot of Korea on the weekends and my off days! I started to learn to surf this summer and I’ve gotten to do a lot of hiking.

Location in Korea: BundangMy time with CDI was a real blessing. I can not stress how much I loved the kids!
It's the best part of the job and they make time fly by! I didn't have much experience working with kids beforehand so I was definitely nervous coming in, but I'm glad I had the chance to experience this opportunity.
Luis Gonzalez
Location in Korea: CheonanI'm having an amazing time so far.
I love my apartment and the area is actually lots of fun even though it's quite a ways from the center on public transport. My branch seems great so far and everyone's been very welcoming, I don't start teaching until tomorrow but I'm really excited!

Location in Korea: JunggyeWe have had a great first week and a few days! Training was great!
he mocks are very helpful because you get feedback right away that you can use to improve your teaching. We had a great trainer that was willing to help us and not afraid to tell us how to make changes.
