I am an ESL Teacher with two years experience, teaching young learners and adults in China.

I have good lesson planning and classroom management skills.

I make my lessons inclusive and interactive for the students, to ensure a fun learning environment.

Whilst I don't have experience teaching yet, I am eager to get started and learn. I have completed my 140 hour TEFL certification with an in-person component and feel ready to start my new career. I think I have a lot of transferable skills from my degree where I worked in many production roles that required me to be organised and delegating work to others. As for personality, I am a bright and bubbly person who loves to talk and communicate with others and so teaching feels like a dream job, especially to help others communicate in a new language.

I have worked with children for almost ten years. I spent a year as a nanny for three children, an infant, two year old and five year old. As such I have worked a great deal on encouraging and building developmental skills in children, including communication skills. I also have experience working in a classroom setting, as I interned in a preschool and kindergarten classroom for the entirety of my junior year of high school. I currently work in a childcare center and interact with children of all backgrounds which has given me additional experience in improving not only the English and communication skills of these children but my communication skills as well.

Though I have never taught English in a foreign country, I do have almost ten years of experience with children. I worked as a full time nanny during my gap year before obtaining my degree and helped with developmental skills of all three of the children that I worked with including communication skills. I have also worked in a classroom setting as a high school student, assisting in a preschool and kindergarten classroom. I currently work in a childcare center and interact with children not only from the US but other countries as well, giving me some level of experience with children from around the world and helping my communication skills as well as the communication skills of children that may struggle with English.

Skilled in building strong connections with students, colleagues, and parents, with a genuine passion for teaching students of diverse age groups. Proficient in collaborative teamwork while also capable of independent, self-driven work. Adaptable and quick to adjust to new environments. Known for innovative and creative approaches to teaching.

I am a South African citizen with a bachelors of commerce degree in Economics and Information Systems. For the last 6 months I have been working as a online ESL tutor, teaching English as a foreign language to different nationals and students of different fluency levels.

Through my experience, I have developed and nurtured my passion for teaching the English language and helping my students grow through my teaching. I love teaching English and I have gained the skills to comfortably and progressively teach students of any proficiency level. I am a teacher who strives for development, progress and goal success through my teaching. This highlights my strengths and my goal driven personality which shines through my teaching methods. I am an individual who is patient, understanding of different cultural backgrounds and have a deep passion for the English language.

I obtained a degree from the University of Arizona back in 2014. I hold dual citizenship with both the United States and Canada. I have traveled to a dozen different countries and lived in 5 US states. I have worked a variety of job in different industries which has exposed me to various job environments and co-workers with different socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. In my free time I enjoy reading books about philosophy, history, and various other subjects. The prospect of living in a foreign country with a language and customs different from my own is very exciting for me.

My patient and empathetic demeanor, which I consider to be the cornerstone of my teaching approach, creates a supportive and encouraging learning environment. This approach, coupled with my motivation and adaptability, allows me to adjust to unique teaching situations, meeting students' needs and preferences. The result is a personalized learning experience that reassures students and fosters their growth.
One skill that I possess is understanding cultural sensitivity. Recognizing and respecting cultural disparities creates an environment of inclusivity. It also enables me to tailor my teaching approach to accommodate students' backgrounds and learning styles, fostering a more enriching educational experience. Another skill I possess is creativity and adaptability. Crafting dynamic lesson plans and integrating varied teaching materials and activities creates a positive environment for students to learn.

I feel that I am a fun and friendly individual. I have been working in customer service jobs the last few years so I believe that I have good communication skills. I am well-spoken and patient with people and I am good listener. I enjoy reading and talking about any topic I have some level of knowledge in.

I have experience teaching all ages in private and public school settings. I am calm, patient, flexible, and compassionate. I have experience working with diverse populations and excel at making information easily accessible. I have a strong education background and continue to learn daily. I am organized, punctual, hard working, and have exceptional communication skills.

I am an outgoing, passionate and hard-working recent University graudate with a passion for languages and teaching. I love interacting with people from different cultures as I just completed a languages degree at my University. This has given me a very good grasp on how best to learn languages as I know what the process entails, the difficulties it presents and how best to administer language exercises. I am a patient person which is key during language learning. I am also very easy going and willing to try anything, so therefore I would love the opportunity to work with children or teenagers of all ages. I have recently completed a TEFL course which has given me a basic understanding of the principles of teaching English as a foreign language however this is something that I would like to build on and put these skills into practice. I have experience of living in a foreign country as I was able to live in Barcelona for a year as part of my studies at University which enabled me to gain a better understanding of what it takes to live in another country.

I have a bright and caring personality and a passion for helping children learn and grown in their knowledge and skills. I have had teaching experience as a Sunday School teacher at a church where I created lesson plans, produced plays, and taught children aged three to ten. I have additional experience with children within my own extended family, ages one to thirteen, whom I have cared for often in the past four years. Professionally, I have had many public facing jobs where I have developed the skills of conflict resolution, trouble shooting, multitasking, and public relations. In my academic life I have sought out challenges and a well rounded selection of subjects studied, including Educational Psychology.

I have a good grounding in both informal, creative forms of teaching, through my time in Athens, I have been able to engage with children, of all different backgrounds and cultures, in as many different ways as possible, from running summer camps, sports activities, film nights, art lessons, and also formally, through my two placements in Seville.
Last year I worked at OneWay Language School in Sevilla teaching a variety of students. also taught at a local school, across all ages from six to sixteen, giving me invaluable experience of teaching in a school, alongside teaching in an academy. Both roles allowed me to gain further teaching experience, working through student books, to implementing my own lesson plans. I taught from small intensive C1 classes, working alongside another teacher particularly with the youngest students, to being tasked to take half the class out to the library to teach independently. Working in both locations was a fantastic opportunity to experience and develop my teaching methods in both an academy setting, and even more importantly in a school setting, with a wide variety of different students and levels.
The year before I worked at a different academy in Sevilla, Connect Idiomas. This was my first formal teaching position, which gave me so much confidence and desire to continue in my hope to teach English abroad.
I taught a wide variety of different ages and levels, from four year olds to adult C2 classes, and from one to one, to intensive exam preparation lessons. What I most enjoyed about this role, and also with the role at OneWay was the ability to teach such a variety of different ages, abilities and needs. Both experiences were invaluable in giving me as much exposure to learning and implementing the way in which I want to teach. I always felt supported in my role, which gave me the confidence to really pursue and experiment the ways in which to get the best out of every student, which was at the heart of everything that I did.These experiences have given me the desire to teach again and to become an English teacher, especially as a foreign language, as I feel that is the most rewarding form, and what interests me the most. The ability to not only teach but to learn about new cultures and to teach others about mine, is incredibly appealing.
I have shown through the volunteer projects and my degree that I am able to learn quickly on the job, and that I am willing to engage completely in new topics and to settle quickly into a new environment.
I have demonstrated that I can work well within a group, also individually, that I am always happy and confident to work with a wide range of different people from very different backgrounds, languages, and cultures. I believe that with these unique experiences I can offer a great deal to this role.

Dear Sir/Madam

I am writing to express my interest in the teaching positions you have available in South Korea. I am a native English speaker from the United Kingdom with a BA degree in English Literature from the University of Bristol. I have also completed a 140-hour TEFL qualification from TEFL.Org, including a 20-hour in-person course.

I now work at a state secondary school in the United Kingdom, as a special educational needs (SEN) teaching assistant. I work with a diverse range of students from ages 11-18, providing both educational and emotional support in a classroom setting. As well as this I have also previously volunteered with a local scout group, working with children from ages 6-8. This was a more practical role as I ran both educational and fun activities for children, and was responsible for a large group of young children.

This experience has shaped me into a well-prepared, adaptable and determined individual who is very passionate about working with children and allow them to have the best education possible. I am now keen on expanding my experience into the role of an English teacher abroad. I am confident and comfortable in a classroom setting and wish to bring my experience into an international classroom in order to allow students to learn in a positive and encouraging environment.

My degree in English Literature has meant that I have strong communication skills and a deep love for the English language and the many uses it has in both practical life and in accessing modern media for entertainment. As the world becomes more connected, being able to access the English language is of great interest to many people and I would love to have the opportunity to assist in this journey.

Thank you for considering my application, I am very interested in joining a team of dedicated teachers with a passion for learning. I look forward to the possibility of discussing how my experience may align with the best candidate for this role.
Yours Faithfully,
Florence Esme Taylor-Cooper

With a diverse background spanning both academic and extracurricular realms, I bring a wealth of experience, skills, and personality traits to the table. As an instructor at my university (Florida State University), I honed my ability to communicate complex concepts effectively, fostering an environment of fun and effective learning. Additionally, my past experience working with children in tutoring roles and as a softball instructor equipped me with patience, adaptability, and the capacity to tailor my approach to meet individual needs. Furthermore, my outgoing nature enables me to easily connect with others, while my hardworking character ensures that I consistently strive for excellence in all endeavors. Kindness and understanding are at the forefront of my interactions, fostering a supportive and collaborative atmosphere wherever I go. I work well under pressure, which is a skill I practiced during my legal internship at the Florida State University Center for the Advancement of Human Rights. Ultimately, I am eager to put these qualities towards contributing positively to your organization.

I am very kind and understanding yet organised, disciplined and observant. I think these traits are hugely important for a teacher to possess. I also have a positive and enthusiastic mindset while possessing good time-keeping skills and an efficient work ethic.
I babysat throughout my life for neighbours, family and friends and am very comfortable with children. I am hard-working, curious and open-minded. I have a degree in genetics and cell biology and would be happy to share my knowledge on variety on topics including biology and nutrition. I recently completed a 200 hour teacher training course which covered a variety of topics including anatomy, meditation, ayurveda, and anatomy. Again I would be happy to incorporate these topics into class if that was feasible.
While travelling i have also casually taught English to people i met from all over the world and as previously mentioned love to share my knowledge.

I have experience working with children at a summer camp a few years ago where I taught them basic lessons in biology and our surrounding native species. I'm a person who really likes to get all of the facts right as well as someone who has a strong attention to detail when carrying out any task. I am currently teaching piano lessons as well as percussion lessons to children and adults. My teaching style highlights meeting the student where their skill level is, and then progressing them from there. I also use a method of gathering knowledge of their interests and leveraging it to the advantage of providing them with a more engaging experience, and to accelerate their learning.

I am writing to express my keen interest in the English as a Second Language (ESL) teaching position advertised on the TEFL.org website. With an educational background in languages and extensive experience in student support and online tutoring, I am eager to contribute to your esteemed institution and assist learners in achieving their language goals.

Since May 2021, I have been tutoring on Cambly, where I develop engaging lesson plans and provide adaptive feedback. My role leverages online technology to enhance student engagement and track progress, ensuring a relaxed and accessible learning experience. This position has sharpened my ability to adapt teaching methods to diverse learning needs and to build rapport with students, while enhancing their language fluency and confidence.

As an International Student Advisor, I have interacted with students from a variety of cultural backgrounds, enhancing my cultural awareness and sensitivity—key attributes for any ESL teacher. My empathetic approach has enabled me to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment.

Working as a Test Center Associate, you need clarity and patience: I’ve demonstrated the ability to explain processes clearly and patiently—an invaluable skill when teaching language, which often requires repeating and rephrasing information to ensure comprehension.Enabling me to establish rapport and build relationships with individuals from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

My academic background in French and Chinese has deepened my understanding of language acquisition challenges and enhanced my empathy towards students' learning obstacles. Additionally, my role as Communications Officer for the Chinese Society and various volunteering activities have developed my organisational and communication skills.

I am also certified with a 140-hour TEFL certificate, which has prepared me to effectively teach English to speakers of other languages. My linguistic skills include a B2 level in French and an HSK3 level in Mandarin Chinese, which I believe would be beneficial in a multicultural educational setting.

The prospect of gaining hands-on experience in a company which would allow me to contribute to social change excites me and I am committed to making a meaningful contribution to your team.

Thank you for taking the time to read my cover letter. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for your consideration.

I would be an ideal candidate for this position for the following reasons: I celebrate and support world languages and cultures, I am skilled in prioritizing multiple tasks within deadlines and managing time effectively, I am a quick learner, stellar communicator, patient, organized, deliberate, methodical, detail oriented, and committed to follow through.

I thrive and am experienced working as part of a team in a busy, diverse environment. I have 10+ years of face-to-face public service which include working with behavioral health patients (some of whom English was not their first language), supervising in my current role at Murphy's Markets, and volunteering at Best Academy and the Boys & Girls Club. In addition, I have a Bachelor's degree in Applied Linguistics and am currently taking a 120-hour TEFL course online.
