Smile teaching in Korea without a BA?

Hi there - My name is Christina and I am a 25 year old, Bachelor of Arts, English major from Canada; I am hoping to teach English in Korea but unfortunately have fallen one credit short (first year French) from completing my BA. So, basically I have two pages of transcripts (I've been in University, full time, for 6 years) and no degree certificate. Will I have a chance getting a job in Korea??

Teaching in Korea without a Uni degree

If you have a university degree, then yes, you can find a job teaching English in Korea. If you nearly have a degree, then this is still seen as having totally no degree whatsoever, even though you may only be 1 credit short.

Are you able to provide the visa office and employer your actual degree certificate and sealed transcript? If not, then you will come across obstacles.

Short of a degree

Why don't you just complete your degree. Without one, some many doors will be closed for you, and it seems you are sooooooo close to getting your degree.
