I am an enthusiastic and creative educator with a diverse professional background that blends the performing arts, design, and teaching. For over 17 years, I traveled the world as a professional performer, experiences that deepened my love for different cultures and sparked a passion for education. During this time, I taught dance to pre-teens and teens at summer camps and served as a teaching assistant in middle school art classes, where I enjoyed helping young students express their creativity. I also worked in after-school programs, gaining valuable experience supporting students in a range of activities.
In addition to my work with students, I built a successful career in design and advertising, where I developed strong communication and leadership skills. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Advertising Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, and recently completed a 120-hour TEFL certification to formally prepare for teaching English abroad. I am currently studying Korean to better immerse myself in Korean culture and communicate more effectively with students and colleagues. I am excited to bring my energy, creativity, and global perspective to the classroom, and to inspire students to learn English in a fun, supportive environment.

I am a passionate educator with a strong background in art education and animation. With 4 years of experience designing and delivering personalized lesson plans, I adapt my teaching to meet individual learning styles and needs. I believe that through creativity, any subject can be taught across diverse learning environments. My experience in animation allows me to integrate technology and storytelling into the classroom, making lessons dynamic, engaging, and inclusive. I am dedicated to fostering a supportive environment where every student feels empowered to reach their academic potential. I am now seeking an opportunity to bring my skills, creativity, and enthusiasm to a forward-thinking educational community that values innovation and personalized learning.

I am fast to adapt and learn any new skills needed to perform above and beyond those at the top. I always plan out my months while adding in new topics or skills to practice. Furthermore, I believe we should use our free time outside of work to better ourselves and become intermediate in every field. Having a diverse set of skills will make any job candidate stand out. To settle for the bare minimum would be the same as killing creativity. Life is too short to only be average at what you do in a career. I believe that we should always work more than what is required and encourage others to do the same.

The company that has me on the team benefits from my expertise in creating new ideas while encouraging and striving to follow the corporate ladder to success. I plan to learn from my coworkers while also sharing my knowledge from my technical, educational, and sociological backgrounds. My approach in a career prioritizes engagement through consistent project completion and peer relationship management.

I have over 4 years of professional teaching experience. This has included teaching students of all ages, from as young as the age of 5 up through retirees. The diverse experience has been a wonderful time for me to really hone my skills and understand my strengths in explaining vocabulary, using visual aids and songs for younger students, as well as tips and tricks for older, advanced students, or even helping high school and university age students prepare for an English exam such as TOEFL. I have really taught all across the board which has helped me to be prepared in any situation when teaching.

I am a friendly, hardworking, motivated, and reliable person. I have a lot of experience traveling and working with different types of people and in various circumstances. Currently I am woking in a school where I work with kids who are 13-14 years old. My main job is as a special circumstance aid to a 14 year old with autism but when he is in class I work with other students helping them with their work individually or in small groups. I also teach english to a student from China who recently moved to my town and was struggling in class. We will either work on her school work or I will create various worksheets on grammar and vocabulary that will help her assimilate in school. I do a lot of research on how to best work with different students as many of the kids I work with have various issues that sometimes require extra help such as trauma, autism, or ADHD. I also understand that each student learns differently and you have to be flexible in how you teach and listen to the student. I have also completed a 120 hour course for TEFL which I have put into practices at times when teaching English.

Through my program with The TEFL Org I have a strong foundational understanding of how to structure an effective lesson plan and possess the interpersonal skills necessary in order to efficiently run an engaging class session. I also have a flourishing knowledge of the Korean language as I've been self-teaching myself for the past year and have taken an online abroad course (Basic Korean I) through Seoul Women's University.

My experience is mostly academic as a recent graduate. However, I do believe it does provide me with a great level of perspective. I have strong performance in Linguistics (my major). Demonstrating my ability to grasp complex concepts and apply them effectively. Courses such as Cross Cultural Communications honed my analytical and critical thinking skills especially in relations to being respectful and appreciative of other cultures and people.
In my brief professionally experience as a waitress required me to interact with many people from different walks of life. This strengthened patience, confidence, listening and negotiation. As a co-worker I strengthened communication, team work, leadership, adaptability and time management.

I taught ages 5 and 6 at Mount Pisgah in Jeongja for a year and a half. I loved teaching the younger ones and always wanted to make class a fun yet insightful experience. I believe making class a safe spaces and mistakes made are not something to feel bad about but opportunities to learn and grow. I had an array of personalities in my class and I can see how each student has individual needs, and I do my best to make sure each and every student feels praised and is given attention to during class. I also had some after school elementary classes which was fun to get into some deeper themes and ideas but overall I love working with the younger ages.

Teaching is something I feel comes naturally to me. I grew up with a younger brother, and I had to routinely teach everything from life skills like how to tie a shoelace, to how to deal with bullies. I learned through this how to strike a balance between helping him, and letting him help himself. Sometimes, the best approach was for a gentle push in the right direction, letting him figure it out by himself, and othertimes he needed clear and blunt guidance. I feel this has prepared me for being a Teacher in my adolescence, I know when to guide, and I know when to step back and let the student learn independantly. Furthermore, personality-wise, I am a very level-headed person, slow to anger and quick to rationalise in situations that require a calm and collected approach. I feel this is a great strength when dealing with students from all walks of life, with different backgrounds and personalities.

Skill-wise, I come from a background in IT where I used to work as a specialist fixing computers for people daily. I therefore not only know how to use technology effectively, but also how to teach people in a way that isn't patronising. I feel my experience transfers well to this new teaching role, providing a strong foundation to build my teaching career upon.
