As a new teacher, I am enthusiastic to begin a new adventure in Korea. I am eager to learn about the rich culture, diverse traditions, beliefs, practices and history. In my short time on this planet, I have learnt that I love learning about different cultures and environments. As a South African living and educated in South Africa, I am surrounded by many different cultures and am thus very aware of cultural implications. This is advantageous in a school system as it can aid in teaching practices. I am able to discern how different cultural implications may affect and influence learners when they are in the midst of forming their own unique personalities, perceptions of the world and interactions with others.
I have a passion for English, which I aim to share through teaching. I can easily adapt to the changing world and environment. This will enable me to adapt my methods of teaching to meet each students’ unique needs, as each child’s development and learning processes are different. Learners are still navigating the world around them, and that does not change when they are in a classroom environment. I aim to utilize my Psychology and English degree and TEFL course, in a classroom of learners, in a creative and fun way and enable my students to advance in their knowledge which will open endless opportunities for them in the workplace, in the future.
I have a strong work ethic and good organisational, communication and creative skills. I am interested in people, language, expanding my knowledge and personal growth.
