Question

Hello! We are a {foreign family} planning to move to Seoul next year. We are currently concerned about the high tuition fees at foreign schools. It is important for both my husband and me to learn Korean, and we would also like our children to experience Korean culture. We are planning to live in Gangnam or Itaewon, and we are curious about how difficult homeschooling might be.

Our older child will be entering middle school, and our younger child will be entering the second grade, so we are considering homeschooling due to the high tuition fees at foreign schools. Is there anyone in Seoul who has experience with homeschooling? We are particularly concerned about whether foreign schools have higher standards in math and science compared to American schools, and whether there are bullying issues.

If you have any advice on homeschooling or would like to share your experience with foreign schools in Seoul, we would greatly appreciate it. Your help would be truly invaluable to us.
