I believe as a teacher who openly welcomes students and accepts their cultural differences can help with an easier acceptance by the school environment. I believe that when a student feels valued, he/she is more apt to assimilate into the English-speaking culture, to make friends easier and increase opportunities to use English. Students who engage in more conversation and activities with native-born English speakers, acquire English skills quicker which help to boost their skills more.

I understand the individual needs of my students. It is helpful to assess the student’s language proficiency and educational history in doing so the design of the classroom lessons can then be individualized to focus on each student’s functional English level in the areas of listening, speaking, reading and writing. This ongoing student assessment helps me as a teacher obtain current functional levels so lessons can be targeted towards maximum growth.

I am a caring teacher, I feel that the key component of being a successful teacher is to love your kids with all your heart as long as you do that the rest will fall into place with time.

I am an empathetic teacher, I think back to when I was a kid or teenager. Everything that happened in my life felt HUGE. If I failed a big test, it seemed like my future was basically over. These dramatic thoughts are happening in your students’ heads and impacting how they feel during class. So i try and connect with them on an emotional level which then helps the students to feel more comfortable in practicing and perfecting their English. They become more attentive in class.

I am enthusiastic as well as creative, I believe a lesson should be fun as well as educational. Especially with younger students, if you have a fun lesson plan they are more captivated and tend to listen more attentively in class.

My experience as a teacher, I had taught English for 2 years to primary school students (mostly grade 1 and 2) whilst I was in high school. After that I had taught swimming to students of various ages for 2 and a half years. Even though it might be different aspects I believe that teaching swimming is much the same as teaching English, the process you go about are similar as you are required to make the student feel comfortable with what they are doing.

I am currently studying my Level 5 TEFL Certification.

I graduated from Purdue University in May 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology Honors, with minors in Spanish and Human Rights studies. I have done online English tutoring for an adult student in Afghanistan who was at an elementary level, and I have done in-person tutoring in Spanish for local high school students from Spanish-speaking regions who were struggling due to lack of understanding of English. Additionally, I worked as a Youth Development Intern last summer in which I helped facilitate programming focused on conflict resolution, communication, and team building. I am also completing the 120-hour combined classroom and online TEFL course through TEFL.org.

I am skilled at language acquisition: I can speak proficiently in Spanish and at a beginner level in Mandarin and Korean. I have proven my exceptional intercultural intelligence and communication skills on many occasions including summer study abroad experiences in Spain and Singapore, personal solo travel across East Asia, and tests such as the Intercultural Development Inventory (in which I am in the Adaption category, the highest on the spectrum, meaning I can adapt my perspective and behavior to better understand and communicate with people of diverse personalities and backgrounds).

I am passionate about East Asian and Korean culture and have done several anthropological projects focusing on this area: my undergraduate honors thesis was on the feminist movement and media representation of women in South Korea, and I have studied the Korean language through several different extracurricular activities (an informal class, an online class, a phone app, a podcast, television shows). Though my research thus far has focused primarily on South Korea, I am also very interested in the issue of reunification and the social, economic, and political climate of North Korea and have done a fair amount of personal reading in these areas.

I am organized, motivated, resourceful, open-minded, and a fast learner, and I work very well in groups or individually. My holistic and well-rounded liberal arts education in Anthropology gives me a unique, people-oriented outlook on problem-solving and strategic thinking. Finally, I have an unquenchable thirst for traveling and trying new things, and as a highly adaptable person I am very open to change and new experiences.

I am a bilingual TEFL certified graduate from the United Kingdom. I received my BSc in Computer Games Design and Production from Northumbria University.
I am an adaptable, enthusiastic, and creative individual committed to helping students progress. I have qualifications from TEFL / ESL surmounting to 150+ hours including specialization in Teaching Young Learners.
I am computer literate and proficiently skilled with Microsoft Office, Adobe Suite (including Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash), AutoDesk Maya 3D, Clip Studio Paint, Krita and more.
I have held positions before that have required me to train new employees. I have also taken the role of mentor and tutor for family members and briefly whilst I was studying abroad.
I have spent two years studying abroad during my high education. Whilst living in South East Asia, I found that I possessed the ability to adapt smoothly and swiftly to even the most drastic of changes.
I have a passion for learning from locals about their culture and lives. I am open-minded and accepting of all people and welcome any opportunity to see the world from another's perspective.

I have been in the Learning & Development industry going on 6 years, beginning my career in the corporate field as a registered Facilitator, Assessor and Moderator focusing on various training/teaching interventions.

Upon acquiring my TEFL certification, my direction is now in the language field

I have a passion for learning and an even greater passion for people along with different cultures, which is why I enjoy this field of work more each day.

A few personal details about myself:
– 33 year old male
– Born and raised in South Africa, Johannesburg
– Of Indian ethnicity
– Clear neutral accent with excellent written and spoken English skills
– Not married and no kids so relocation is welcomed

My name is Phillip Tsang and I’m very much interested in teaching in Seoul. I was born and raised in San Francisco, California. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in business economics. While studying at university, I was able to meet many Korean friends that were studying abroad. The friends that I made was a bond that is something that has carried me all the way through my adult years. That is where my interest to experience the culture further and desire to learn the language began.

I’ve been working in a logistics company for the past four years where I am responsible for coordinating multiple shipments daily across America and all over the world. I also am involved with communicating with our offices all over Asia which gives me the opportunity to interact with people from different cultural backgrounds.

Although I have no formal teaching experience, I lead a team of two people and consistently train new employees on the system and procedure. The extensive amount of time and effort that my superiors have instilled into me for being in charge of the training portion of our company is something that I have to take very seriously. Becoming a teacher takes a lot of patience as well as organization to prepare two of my strongest points in life. I am very much so confident that if I am granted this once in a lifetime experience I will be able to bring so many positive changes to these kids’ lives.

Best Regards,
Phillip

My Ideal start date would be next year February as that would give me enough time to collect all the background checks and apostilled.

I have been an English teacher in China now for three years. In those three years I have taught a range of student ages from 3 years to 22. I am well organized and can stick to strict time constraints. I work well in teams as well as autonomously. I am easy to interact with and can capture the attention of many students to engage them in classes. While teaching younger students, I had a range of experience teaching phonics, tenses, basic vocabulary and acting classes. With my older students I have had experience teaching them more complex sentence structures and and grammar points as well as assisted them in academic writing such a Compare and Contrast essays, Research essays, Problem and Solution essays and Argumentative essays.

To whom it may concern,

As a new but enthusiastic ESL teacher I wish to gain experience and develop my skills. Having taught English online to students in China for the better part of a year, I am aware of how rewarding this profession can be and it is one that I wish to pursue further. I am greatly looking forward to being able to teach students in person where my personality can shine through and I am able to build relationships in order to motivate, educate and hopefully have fun with them along the way.

As a destination for teaching, Korea really stands out for me. The rich culture and stunning scenery is something that I am really looking forward to being immersed in. For someone such as myself who is just starting their teaching journey there appears to be a great support system in place that removes a lot of the hurdles so I can focus on finding my style and becoming a better teacher.

With my motivation to share my knowledge and develop the students understanding of the English language, I am prepared to push myself to exceed the expectations you have for this role. Thank you for your consideration

Sincerely,
Sam Townsend

I am very comfortable working with and managing groups of children, a skill developed through my experiences working as a nanny, helping run a vacation bible school program, babysitting younger family members, and tutoring.

I am also currently enrolled in a 120 Hr TOEFL course, as well as a Teaching English to Young Learners TOEFL Specialist Course, both to be completed this month (July 2019). While in university, I also took an education course aimed at showing teachers how to effectively improve student literacy and fluency in English.

I also believe my personality makes me especially well-suited to a foreign teaching position. After spending a semester in Shanghai–and interning at Intel Shanghai for a summer–I am very flexible and capable of thriving in different environments where English is not the primary language of communication. Working abroad has made me patient and very empathetic. I have studied four languages throughout my life and am accordingly familiar with the struggles of language learners and can connect with them in ways that I believe will make me an effective teacher. I have a real passion for the English language and would love the opportunity to share this excitement with my students.

My internships have made me comfortable with managing larger groups and speaking in public. I feel fully confident in my classroom management skills and my ability to communicate lessons effectively.

Overall, I believe my experiences have shaped me into a person capable of being an effective teacher who makes her students excited to learn.

Hello,

I am a confident, positive-minded, and hardworking person capable of making a meaningful contribution using a wide variety of skills and experiences directly linked to teaching, management, and care. Some of these enriching experiences include the Children's literacy center, in which I established a professional and open rapport with my student; working at the Worner Campus Center at Colorado College as a manager in which I offered a multitude of customer services along with managing over 20 student assistants. And one of my most fun and recent experiences was teaching social studies at Keystone Academy in Beijing to students ages 5 to 14 years old.
Through my experiences, I polished my skills in handling several tasks simultaneously, prioritizing, organization, technical, interpersonal, and dependability. In addition, I am strong-minded who has excellent communication skills and the ability to work individually or within a team. I am a fast learner who adapts quickly to change and eager to learn new things. I am someone who meets goals and provides top-quality results with minimal supervision.

As a CELTA certified English teacher, during my teaching practice, I worked with wonderful adult learners, ranging in age from late teens to late sixties. My students also varied in their English proficiency from lower intermediate to upper intermediate. From this experience, I learned a lot about meeting my students' needs, time management, and classroom management.
Currently I teach English and critical thinking online through Aha! Academy to Chinese international students in their late teens and twenties. Through teaching in this one-on-one capacity, I have grown in my ability to guide students in their communication skills and cultural awareness. Previously, I taught weekly 3 hour American Culture and Conversation classes for international graduate students at UCLA to facilitate a smooth transition to the US. In this position, I was responsible for lesson-planning in addition to teaching.
These experiences have all contributed to my abilities to encourage my students, help them achieve their goals, and empower them to excel in their communicative and receptive abilities in English.
As someone with a warm and friendly personality, I care deeply about my students and one of my great strengths as a teacher is my ability to connect with my students.

I am a higly motivated, self driven individual with a great passion for transforming the lives of children through good education. I have been a volunteer tutor at the Vukani ma- africa community project , teaching English and Mathamatics to underprivileged children and some of those with special needs for over 5 years; their ages range between 5 and 18. Through this initiative I was able to realise that my greatest passion lies in education. I am patient; caring; dedicated and hard working. I possess good time management skills and love to be well prepared. Through my work, I have learnt to understand children from different backgrounds with different abilities and aptitudes and have been able to change their lives by improving their self confidence and enhancing their interests in their academics. I have unique teaching techniques for different children and generally love to have any fun that involves children. In 2017 I took part in a volunteering programme in the institutional office for HIV/AIDS in the University of Johannesburg. Through this initiative I gained great communication skills as it involved alot of public speaking; hosting dialogues and educating students on safe sexual and reproductive health and rights. In this institution we were challenged greatly as it was mandatory to interact with different people. Unfortunately. I could no longer be a peer educator because in April 2019 I obtained my BA Public management and governance degree. I have good typing skills, with the knowledge of Microsoft Word; Excel; Powerpoint and general computer skills as I worked in a call centre environment doing simulations at the discovery institute. The greatest highlight of my educational career was in 2006 when I was awarded with the best reader certificate in Horizon View Primary school.

I am a positive and self motivated young lady who has acquired extensive experience in being a team player and being independent. I've obtained this experience through working with an NGO where I had to complete a project on implementing a Public Relations campaign and a Human Resources Internship at the City of Johannesburg. This experience has helped strengthen my communication and flexibility skills by allowing me to be able to work and connect with all kinds of people and be able to adapt easily to any environment or situation.

I knew that after completing my studies I wanted to pursue a career that would not only allow me to work with children but also initiate change in their lives. As such, my desire to change the lives of children inspired me to use my passion into a real purpose.

I started looking for places where I could volunteer while I was studying and this is when I came across the Iqanga Organisation. This organisation is an organisation that seeks to create a healthy school environment for children in disadvantaged areas in rural Eastern Cape. During my time there I helped prepare children for their exams. It was thus through my interaction with these children that I began to realise a new passion emerging through my interaction with these children, teaching. I have also had tutoring experience. This experience helped me to not only understand the challenges of teaching but the rewards of teaching as well.

As such, I feel that I would make a great teacher not only because of my brief experience around teaching children but because of my overall passion for children and their well-being. I am a very patient, kind and enthusiastic individual
