The Global Village (GV) is a unique peer-to-peer teaching internship where participants teach conversational language to Dankook University students. Over three weeks, participants lead small-group classes in their native language, focusing on interactive learning and cultural exchange. The program offers a unique chance to build meaningful connections with local students while gaining firsthand insights into Korean culture. Plus, teaching is not only rewarding, it is a fantastic opportunity for participants to learn more about themselves and build value skills along the way. There is no program fee to join the Global Village and you will receive free on-campus accommodation and flight reimbursement up to US$1000.
