Travel Job Story: Teaching English in South Korea with Niki Brogen

<p>My guest today is&nbsp;<span>Niki Brogen, a former Elementary School English Teacher that taught in South Korea for 3 and a half years with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art and Design and a minor in Business. She was responsible for educating grades 3 through 6 (700+ students per week!) as well as organizing weekend teaching programs. Although the role was incredibly life-changing, Niki knew it was time to return to the USA this past February 2022 to start the next chapter of her life. Currently, she is producing 2 Podcasts : Anime Go! &amp; Melanin Muses, Building her Art Portfolio, Designing her own website, as well as building her career as a Voice Actress among many other projects.</span></p> <p>Our conversation is filled with excellent tidbits and advice on how to join the EPIK program in South Korea, but also the realities of packing up a life at home and moving abroad. There are highs and lows and Niki honestly reflects on her triumphs and hardships as she navigated it all.</p> <p>Want to learn more about Niki?</p> <p><a href="http://www.nikibthatsme.com">Niki's Website</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.instagram.com/nikibthatsme">Niki's Instagram</a></p> <p><a href="mailto:www.instagram.com/@melaninmusespodcast">Melanin Muses Podcast Insta</a></p> <p><a href="mailto:www.instagram.com/@animegopodcast">Anime Go Podcast Insta</a></p> <p>If you enjoyed today's episode and had a&nbsp;takeaway moment to share,&nbsp;be sure to take a screenshot and tag me<span>&nbsp;(</span><a href="http://www.instagram.com/thetravelshifters">@thetravelshifters</a>) and Niki (<a href="http://www.instagram.com/nikibthatsme">@nikibthatsme</a>) on Instagram and let us know what it was!
