I am I highly dedicated, reliable and organised person that is used to working effectively as part of a team and on my own. I have excellent time management skills and I always give 100%. I am keen to learn and always looking to improve. I am driven by success and hard work.

I feel that many of these skills are transferable to English teaching.

I am very excited by the opportunity to continue my teaching career. I am a college graduate. I have a BA in Communication from Kennesaw State University.

I am sure I will be able to meet any and all expectations from your school.

I graduated from college in December 2020 with a Bachelor’s degree in Strategic Communications and am currently working on my TEFL certification. I will be TEFL certified in April 2021. I first learned about teaching English overseas as a career in 2015 and it’s like a lightbulb went off in my head. I knew this was the path for me. I always knew that I wanted to travel and I’ve always been interested in other cultures and languages.

My college degree was heavily focused in advertising and PR principles, writing, studying demographics and target audiences, and ethics. I’ve worked various retail jobs since I was 18 and have been with my current job since 2016. After being with my store for a year, I began training new employees and learned how to adjust my training style to the person’s needs.
Through working retail, I’ve developed many skills that cross over into teaching including: learning how to interact and deal with a variety of people, patience, adaptability, planning, and interpersonal skills. I’m adaptable and work well under pressure. Sometimes there's no pressure like working 40+ hours a week in a mall during Christmas season.

More personally, I’ve always been an avid reader and learned a lot of my early vocab through books. I believe this gives me a unique insight into the frustrating nuances between written and spoken English. I understand the frustration with English pronunciations that don’t follow any rules.

I vividly remember finding the same book in two languages and trying to figure out how translation worked. It definitely went over my 6-year-old head and I remember naively thinking that it was just translated word for word.

I've learned a lot about linguistics since then and have taken Spanish, Latin, and Korean classes. Korean was my foreign language in college. So I have a lot of experience as a foreign language student and I’m ready to take on a role as the teacher.

I have experience as a tutor at 6 ESL summer camps in which I led children of all ages in a mixture of classroom and outdoor activities.
Following my success as a tutor, I was promoted to a supervisor position and was responsible for training over 70 tutors.
I pride myself on being an engaging and enthusiastic communicator, as well as on my ability to form and maintain interpersonal relationships. I have used this skillset to lead a plethora of training sessions across a variety of fields including ESL, retail and youth football.
I have an MA and BA in English related fields, along with a TEFL certificate. I bring the skills that I gained at university into teaching by devising creative lessons for the students to engage with.
My interests include writing fiction as well as performing stand-up comedy. I also love to travel and to seek authentic experiences in new countires. I am an outgoing person who enjoys meeting people from all over the world and learning about other cultures.

I have had five different English as a second language jobs since 2016 and have taught in three separate countries. I currently teach online to students all around the world. Notably, I am teaching three students from Korea; one kindergarten student, one aged nine, and one age 30.

I have worked with English students one on one, in ESL summer camps, and academic classrooms. I also have experience teaching theatre, arts and crafts, and various outdoor activities, including soccer, hiking, and camping, to children in ESL summer camps.

I am patient, very energetic, and I love to work with children. Through various travels around the world, I have gained cross-cultural communication skills, which include non-verbal communication. I also have theatre skills, including public speaking. My strongest academic subjects besides English are politics, sociology, and geography.
I am outgoing, love to meet new people and learn about different cultures!

A confident native speaker that enjoys educating people of all ages. Has over 3 years of teaching ESL in Thailand and in the U.K. I have fallen in love with south east Asia's food, culture, and entertainment. I now call Thailand my second home. However I am looking forward to discovering a new journey in south Korea. This year due to lock down in the U.K. I have spent much of my time learning hangul language and watching Korean series.

I am looking forward to being part of developing students English language in Korea. I am a calm vibrant person that feels comfortable talking in front of large groups, due to having experience teaching in university conference halls in Thailand. Besides from teaching I have worked in other sectors such as customer services and management therefore my communication skills are effective.

Moreover I am eager to work as part of the team to help Korean schools achieve there goals. At my previous work place during my free time I contributed to holding marketing events and workshop events with the goal to attract new students.

In my spare time I love traveling and socializing, after I graduated college myself and two friends backpacked more that 20 countries! Korea was actually one of the places we went.

I am a Charismatic and dependable teacher with nearly 5 years experience delivering educational assistance and instructions to various level of learners. Committed to providing students with necessary tools to achieve academic goals. Instilling love of learning and cooperative teamwork. Adept in application of excellent communication and problem solving skills.

Through my experience to date, I feel I have many strengths suitable for this position. My role as a language teacher in Shanghai, China has particularly demonstrated these strengths by the resilience, adaptability and outgoing nature needed to move abroad on my own. I found my love for teaching and have proved my patient and caring nature with the teaching of Chinese children. I have excellent communication and leadership skills that I have gained by my work in managing a nightclub bar and leading a classroom as well as other various job roles I have completed. I love being challenged and am excited by the prospect of experiencing new cultures.

As a professional young woman, I am confident I have the qualifications required to contribute to your field of work as well as add some of my own perspective and experience. While my attached resume outlines my in-depth experience and professional development, it does not fully encapsulate my passion for teaching and shaping the minds of young children. Having been admitted to a mandarin emersion program when I was a child, I understand how important being bilingual is in every day life as well as professional development. It has allowed me to broaden my perspective and appreciate a wide variety of other cultures. My background includes roles such as an English as a Second Language teacher in the Philippines and a Sexual Health Peer Facilitator at Lewis & Clark College. Both of these roles have allowed me to master communication skills and a diligent mindset crucial for this job. Although these positions do not fall neatly under one category, they have pushed me to adapt and react to many different and uncontrollable circumstances. With my psychology major, I am able to understand other people from a very analytical and empathetic position that I believe would be extremely beneficial toward becoming an English teacher. Additionally, as a rhetoric and media studies minor, I will be able to provide effective theoretical and methodological tools for understanding how public messages, images, texts, stories, conversations, and symbols work in diverse societies. I am very passionate about working with children and have even begun work toward achieving my Level 5 TEFL certificate (168 hours). I welcome the opportunity to discuss any available positions and how my credentials and experience will add substantial value to your work.
