Hello, my name is Soojin Lee. I have worked in Plastic Surgery Clinic as an English translator and international marketer for 2 years. Also, I have experience in teaching and used to teach elementary school students, so I think I can be a right candidate for this position. I'm self-motivated and love to work as team. I also love to provide my knowledge and be a tutor/teacher for people who need my help.

I would like to apply for English teaching position in South Korea.
I am very excited to be applying to teach in a country as beautiful and progressive as Korea. It will be a privilege to be given an opportunity to share what I know as a teacher with my students.
I have completed CELTA teacher training from International House Barcelona. I am an EFL, business studies and tourism teacher teaching students of diverse nationalities and skill levels. I have been doing that since early 2015. I am available to start immediately. And am willing to relocate and I do hope to learn more about this teaching initiative in Korea following my application (and your response to it).

My methodology in the classroom is to remain approachable to learners at all times, encourage student interaction with the teacher and with other learners. I have learned that leaners feel more involved and tend to participate well if learning is fun and relevant. As a private tutor, I enjoy being challenged by the demands of teaching students with varied abilities. I accommodate students according to their understanding of English language and management studies with the help of teaching resources. Most exciting feature of teaching for me is the diversity of backgrounds, value systems, personal stories and work experiences that my learners bring with them.

I am driven by strong work ethics in my family. My father started our family business on his own from next to nothing. Then my eldest brother took over under most testing circumstances when our father developed health issues. I draw my inspiration from my brother and father who had very limited or no means to study or even have a professional career.

I understand that teaching English in Korea will have its challenges . I am willing to learn and improve myself constantly liaising with the school management, staff and English department cooperating with them to achieve the common goal of improving learners’ language skills required.

I am very interested in applying for the position of Math Teacher. I have been teaching math as a private tutor for High-school students in Diamond Bar California since 2005 (about 12 years). I taught students SAT, AP Calculus preparations in addition to regular curriculums from Algebra to AP Calculus. I also taught UCLA pure math major students from freshman to senior.
Before I taught math, I studied Economics-Finance and obtained an MBA degree from Chapman University in 1987. I also taught English listening course such as AFKN Listening in Pagoda Language Institutes, a private institution in Seoul for college students, until 1997. From 1998 to 2004, I worked for the Australian Embassy in Seoul as a Property/Contract officer.
I have had a strong interest in Math and studied it by myself. Since I came back to California early 2005, I passed CBEST exam and Single subject exams for High school Math Teaching (both I and II). Many of my former students are successful in colleges, such as UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, Santa Barbara, and even UC Irvine.
I have one outstanding skill. I can explain difficult part and make students understood easily. I am an American by naturalization, but will be back to Korea and wish to stay for quite a time. My kids, both are graduating this fall from a college (UCLA) and a law school. As I am very energetic and have enough knowledge, I believe I can make a substantial contribution to your Institute.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Regards,

Brian B Min

I am a highly motivated individual capable of doing any job assigned to me. I do my outmost best in everything because that’s how I was raised. I have a great passion for seeing and learning new things, cultures and skills. I am a dedicated and loyal person who believes honesty is the best policy. I have taught maths at Master Maths to grade 4's up until grade 12's for eight months and I am currently tutoring first and second year university students in different modules. I have many skills that I have developed through participation in many fields. I believe you can do anything you set your mind to. I also believe that a person should always finish what they start. Some of my skills include being an experienced team leader and researcher, being punctual and being a master of many skills (repair work, construction, maintance, tutor, vet assistant, animal husbandry, artist).

Growing up with an older sister who has Down Syndrome and having a young nephew and niece has made me into a patient invidividual.
I have first-hand experience of what it is like to learn a new language at a young age because I moved to the UK when I was 4 years old. (I have completed all of my education in the UK) Therefore, I am empathetic with learners of English and I am able to share my own experience/methods of learning. This understanding helped me to build a strong relationship with students during my time as a TESOL classroom assistant volunteer and English language assistant. It also encouraged them to enjoy learning English.
I have a 120-hour TEFL certificate (online).

I have 2 months EFL teaching experience having completed my CELTA course in August 2018 and being offered a teaching position with the school in which I trained; International House,Dublin. I am creative in class while recognising students needs. I genuinely care about student's progress, and can identify their strengths and areas for improvement quite early into a class.
My passion for teaching began at an early age and I have been involved in the training and development of my team in my 7 years working within the hospitality industry.
I am an outgoing individual who loves working with people. I'm naturally empathetic and genuinely care about the needs of those close to me. I am quite musical, playing the piano and guitar, and singing. I have also been involved in numerous amateur performances in musical theatre.

I have always wanted to become a Teacher because I enjoy assisting others grow. Teaching English will give me that opportunity to transfer my knowledge of English to others, allowing them to expand their linguistic knowledge. I find great joy in seeing the development in one's education, and I believe I would bring passion and enjoyment to my classroom. I believe having a strong language skill is an asset that will promote a lifetime of effective communication. I feel as though English is so universal and one of those languages that many cultures learn. I think it is important to learn other languages and alternative forms of communication besides our own, because it helps us to learn about other cultures. I have had a great appreciation for Korean culture since I was about fourteen years old. My father is in the military and was stationed in Korea when I was young. He told me amazing stories of the country and it sparked a love for the culture. I have taken it upon myself to try to learn Korean/Hangul when I have free time, and being immersed in the language and culture will be very influential. I also know that parent's involvements in their children's education is very important in Korea, this is something I respect and find refreshing. Working in Korea would be a life changing experience. I have lived in America my whole life and I believe it is important to experience different cultures, especially those we have an interest in, so we may better understand the culture, the people, and the country.

My goal is to educate my students so they can confidently submerge themselves in an environment and speak English without feeling timid or incorrect. This will open up opportunities for them, assist them in meeting more people, creating more friendships, and overall stimulating their growth in the future. My teaching method is creative and hands-on. I believe independent work is important, however, I have always noticed other's work well with others. I believe the teacher should be involved and engaged in what their students are doing, and not sit on the sidelines "hoping" they learn. I also believe creativity is important in education. This was absent when I was growing up in school, and I noticed when something was "fun" I finished my work more successfully and quickly. Art and creativity can improve academic performance, promote decision making, enhance the idea of collaboration and visual learning can be more successful than verbal at times.

I am a passionate and enthusiastic individual with a keen interest in developing new skills. Throughout my education and professional life I have been shown to be a dedicated and dependable worker, having built strong rapport with my colleagues and superiors alike.

Whilst studying for my TEFL course I have developed a variety of skills to utilize in a classroom. Most noted of these skills by the course leader were my eliciting skills and ability to set an appropriate context.

At University I have proven and refined my aptitude to self motivate and competency with long term planning and conveying information in a structured format. Despite it not being the central focus of my studies studying Psychology did give me an informed understanding on the learning process.

Outside of professional life I enjoy gaming and reading when I'm not socializing with friends. One activity that would be relevant to professional life in South Korean would be learning the language which I have been able to do both through self tutoring and through the support of a nearby language exchange group which I have been attending since mid-August of this year.

I am very excited and privileged to be applying for a job like this! I am a passionate learner and teacher, as well as a lover of people and knowledge. I am eager to meet new people, share new experiences, and learn about new cultures – which means that I’m up for any adventure that comes my way!

I would sincerely love to be considered for a good teaching position because I also think that I have a lot to offer any learning space and I will be a valuable and passionate asset to any work team.

Thank you so much for your consideration.

I am a 23 year old recent graduate currently living in Manchester, England. I have been working, part-time for the past 6 years, and full time for the past 18 months at Lloyds High Street Bank in the centre of Manchester.

Working for this amount of time at Lloyds has hugely developed my people and communication skills. Working in such a large city as Manchester with the diversity of culture and range of different people has given me an insight in to the way to approach and communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds. I have enjoyed the professionalism of working in a high priority bank but am now keen to take a dramatic change in career and move into teaching students overseas.
Studying at Leeds University has again been a great help to me creating relationships with brand new people. Becoming independent and relying on my individual social skills to live in a different city and make new friends has developed me into becoming an open, friendly approachable person.
Since leaving university, completing my TEFL course has been a top priority of mine as I am keen to move abroad and start a new adventure into teaching overseas. My TEFL course, along with shadowing one of my close friends when I am not working myself, who is currently a primary school teacher here in Manchester, has demonstrated to me how challenging but also fulfilling and worthwhile teaching, especially younger students really is. It is something that has absorbed my interest and motivated me to begin a new journey both into a different country and culture and also into a new profession.
The reason for my interest in choosing South Korea and in particular Seoul to begin my teaching career is down to the excitement and anticipation of the complete contrast in culture from the UK that Korea has to offer.
The difference in the public and private educational systems to that of the UK is something that interests me, from in classroom practices to the way in which traditional Korean holidays are celebrated by students and the communities in general. The food and fashion culture especially that expressed in Seoul, along with the vast technological advances draws my attention to teaching and living in the city.
Having always been based in major cities in the UK I am keen to get a taste of a frantic, electrifying Asian capital and offer students and peers an insight into my own culture of living in a northern, UK city. From languages, behaviours, teaching philosophies, sports and games.
I have researched the dramatic climate of Korea and although Seoul is busy and active, Korea still offers unbelievable landscapes and hiking opportunities outside of the city which is something I would be keen to get involved in.

Hello,

My name is Michele Goh, I am currently 24 years old and I am from Canada. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Science. I am an energetic and dynamic person. I like being active and doing outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing, and biking. I currently have all my documents ready to apply for my E2 visa application. I could start ASAP or in October 2018.

I have one year teaching experience in South Korea, I had a great experience leading to a desire to continue teaching. I have taught curriculum basis on English skills, such as listening, reading, writing and speaking. Also I have developed and implemented weekly lesson plans which incorporated smart technology and hands on experiences. I have also taught TOEFL Jr. and TOEFL ibt, test taking strategies in all aspects in reading, listening, writing and speaking.

I have planned and implemented differentiated lessons for ESL students in Grades 3-8. I would prepare daily and weekly lesson plans as well as theme-based activities. Effectively maintained interest and provided an interactive atmosphere. I kept my students engaged with fun and exciting lessons by creating interactive activities or projects. Every week the students are given a collaborative group project, as a class we brainstorm, discuss and share their own ideas. The students enhance their ability in communication and critical thinking in English but as well as social interaction.
