Please mention that you found the job on Teast for the school's reference.

You need to be from one of the following countries to teach English in South Korea: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa. If you’re not from one of those, you can still teach in most other countries. This rule is specific to South Korea’s visa issuance.
Schools receive many applications and may not reply to everyone. If you don’t hear back within a week, move on to the next job.
Never pay to apply. Never pay to “buy something now and get reimbursed later.” Always verify you’re speaking with the actual school (not an impostor). Scams do exist—be careful.
