About JLS Academy

Why Teach at JLS Academy?

CHESS · ACE · V.GROUP — three structured English pathways from elementary to high school.

Three Structured Programs

CHESS (elementary, 100% English, Caramel Tree storybook series), ACE (middle school, flipped learning, 9 CSAT-aligned levels), and V.GROUP (high school intensive). Clear role per age group.

Flipped Learning in ACE

Middle school ACE classes use a flipped model — students review pre-class content at home; class time is for discussion, feedback, and application. A modern approach that engaged teachers appreciate.

Founded 1986 — Reliable Contracts

JLS is noted by teachers for reliable contract fulfilment and professional management. Nearly 40 years in operation across 125+ locations means strong systems and consistent expectations.

Bundang HQ — 17 Min to Gangnam

JLS is headquartered in Bundang, Seongnam — connected to Gangnam by the Bundang-Sinbundang Line. Premium suburban lifestyle with easy access to Seoul's centre.
