South Korea, home of thousands of private English academies, will soon introduce a public English emersion program. Regular classes will be conducted in English.
“A pilot English immersion program will be introduced at some elite private and public high schools starting this year”

An educational team stated.
This program will then be gradually expanded to all Korean public schools. Korea already has over 2000 foreign English teachers working across the peninsula in the public school system and earlier planed on having every public school hire foreign English instructors. This program will extend not only to the elite wealthy class citizens of the country but extend to even the less fortunate living in rural areas.
