Education: I graduated from the University of Exeter, a prestigious Russell Group institution, with first-class honours in BA English and Film. Since leaving university, I have travelled extensively while gaining qualifications as a teacher of English. I have visited twelve countries over the past year including Norway, Sweden, and Mongolia during an independently devised expedition to drive overland from Italy to Mongolia.

Experience: When I returned in February, I worked diligently to secure qualifications as a TEFL instructor with my Level 5 198-hour Combined TEFL Certification, including modules in Online, Telephone, Large Class, Business teaching, and a 30-hour practical methodology course. For years, I have nurtured my love for teaching and found great joy in helping others to grow into inspiring individuals. From my work as a peer tutor to my volunteering work, sharing knowledge became my life-goal. I wish to satisfy this passion, and have chosen to seek this path abroad as I am also particularly interested in the exchange of diverse cultures. During my time travelling, I found interacting and sharing variegated cultures a deeply rewarding experience which I immediately pursued in my TEFL training.

Personality: I am energetic, creative, friendly, and most of all hardworking. I relish a challenge and commit myself to always performing to the best of my abilities. I am passionate about the arts in all forms, and spend my free time satiating my creative hungers through photography, film, music, and maintaining a fit and healthy lifestyle as an avid sportsman. Above all, it is my vibrant personality, strong work ethic, and adaptable skillset which makes me a valuable asset to any team.

I am a well-educated young professional with a background in science. I have an undergraduate degree in marine science and an MSc degree in coastal and marine management. I have a high standard of oral and written English, developed from 5 years of academic essay and report writing. While I lack practical teaching experience, I have just recently completed a 120 hour online TEFL course and I have presentation experience from my academic and professional career.

I have a personality well-suited to teaching; I am patient, knowledgeable, creative and kind. I am a friendly and outgoing person and I am easy to get along with. I have a keen interest in languages and I would like to learn Korean while I am in the country, I feel that this will also help me with my TEFL goals.

I am naturally an outgoing person who enjoys being in the company of other people. This skill and the ability to communicate effectively were further sharpened whilst I was doing the TEFL course at the University of the Witwatersrand language school, where we had 120 hours of practical experience teaching adult students.

I am a person who is bubbly but also assertive and enjoys connecting with others. I have a natural and easy affinity towards creating engaging with people and being able to learn from them, as they do me. One thing that I am proud to have learned whilst doing the TELF course, was creating learning environments where students felt a strong confidence to speak in a way that provided learning for all those involved – myself included. I think teaching is not just about talking at students, especially in a language class. Teaching is about creating a space where students can naturally use the tools and lessons from the classroom, in a more natural way. I was fortunate enough to learn this skill through the TEFL course.

Part of the skills that I have learned and implemented during the practical teaching was how to make learning communicative and relatable to the students and also how to effectively manage a classroom. This is especially important when working with adults who may view an authority figure in the classroom differently to younger students. The ability to create a motivation for students to want to learn – be it intrinsic or external was something that I also learned.

To be a teacher is not just to be a person who gives information to students. But to be a teacher is also to be a person that allows students to open up and be receptive to acquiring knowledge in a way that is more suitable to the demographic in the classroom and also to create an environment where peer learning and discussions can naturally occur. I believe that my outgoing, friendly and easy flowing personality allows for such an environment, while still obtaining respect and professional boundaries.

I'm a freelance writer who lives and works in Philadelphia. I have several years of experience tutoring children and teens in English, and I've written for various online and print magazines. I'm enthusiastic about English, and I'm looking forward to teaching it in Seoul.

Hi,

I love being creative and thinking out of the box. I am a people’s person and love interacting with kids and adults.

I believe that all the above attributes would assist me in having a positive experience in South Korea.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts (Political Economy) from the University of Sydney (Australia), and a Graduate Diploma of Information Technology from Charles Sturt University (Australia) where I received the Executive Dean’s Award for Academic Excellence. I’ve recently completed a TEFL 220 hour Masters Certification from the International TEFL and TESOL Training (ITTT) centre. This also included a 50-hour Teaching Business English course and a 50-hour Teaching English to Young Learners course.

I began my professional career as a Film Journalist, writing for Australia’s only print film magazine, FilmInk. I wrote film reviews and articles, and conducted interviews with prominent international filmmakers. One of the highlights of the job was getting the opportunity to attend the 2015 Berlin Film Festival as a member of the press. Following this, I worked for four-and-a-half years in television at Viacom (MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central) where I began as an Operational Project Manager, and later moved into managing information technology projects in the Sydney office. Part of my role here was to educate and train all new members of staff on a key software system and operational procedures.

Working in Information Technology bought me across the world to Belgium, where I completed a sixteen-month contract as an Analyst for a software company in Brussels. Among my responsibilities here, I was tasked with gathering software requirements and training users on new software functionality, both in-person and online. As previously mentioned, I am currently working in Finland as a Husky Safari guide. One of my roles here is to give customers an entertaining twenty-minute presentation on our operations and a general husky history.

To every role I take, I bring my greatest strength – my ability to build rapport with almost anyone! I find people really interesting and love to find out more about them, their interests and their motivations. This is really important when teaching English, as everyone has different learning styles, personalities and motivations. I’m passionate about the English language and believe my experience and education has equipped me with the necessary skills to provide an outstanding English education to your students in Korea.
