I am a hard working, dedicated and patient teacher. I always produce excellent students in my classroom. I have worked at 2 elementary schools and 1 kindergarten before. Throughout my 2 years of experience I have learnt a lot about children and education in particular. I am a free spirited person and I enjoy singing and dancing. My strongest points include lesson plans and delivering them.

Teaching is my passion! I have over 6 years of experience teaching a variety of levels in the United States, from middle school to special education to elementary school. My degree is in English and secondary education, but I have recently found that my greatest passion is teaching kindergarten. I bring a high level of energy, compassion, expertise, and skill to the classroom. My goal is to create an engaging, safe, positive, and supportive environment in which students can learn and grow. I form strong relationships with each of my students, building a positive classroom community and encouraging students to take risks and challenge themselves. Throughout my teaching experience, I have gained a wide range of instructional methodologies and classroom management strategies, including differentiating to a variety of learning styles, supporting struggling students through additional intervention, and challenging advanced students with additional materials. I have a positive attitude and communicate effectively with coworkers and supervisors. I believe I will make a strong addition to any teaching team!

I have many applicable strengths for this position. Firstly, I am currently teaching English as a Second Language online. This has provided excellent practical experience for teaching English in a physical classroom. It has given me the opportunity to understand my students who differ in age a lot better and has given me the ability to understand how much work is required to teach English successfully.

Secondly and personally, I am someone who generally loves people, socializing and I have a deep passion for learning about and experiencing new cultures. I am not one to shy away from a stage and I enjoy taking the lead. I am also someone who adapts easily to new environments and different people.

Thirdly, I have excellent interpersonal skills as the bulk of my work experience has required me to be personable and to meet my clients/customers where they are. For example, I have worked as an Aspiring Financial Advisor and I have worked and volunteered as an HIV Counsellor. Both these roles require someone who is sensitive to people and who will ensure that everyone is taken care of.

Lastly, My degrees have provided me with the necessary academic foundation for a role such as this as I have majored in International Relations and Studies. I have been privileged enough to be able to have studied different cultures and people extensively.

My recent work experience as a Medical Secretary within the NHS has also allowed me guide and assist fellow colleagues in the usage of the recent Electronic Patient Record System known as HIVE.

I also have experience working as a youth leader for children and young adults, which gave me the skill of working well with young people. Carrying on, as a youth leader for children, I have experience presenting and speaking to a various amount of people. This has also developed my ability to be flexible during presentations and speeches.

I am compassionate and empathetic which will allow me to understand how my students are feeling learning a new language.
I am energetic and driven which allows me to stay focused on my goals.

For several years, I have focused my career path on many academic pursuits. I have graduated from the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal (Howard College), whereby I had obtained a cum laude and received various awards based on my merit. Thereafter, I completed my level 5 Teaching English as a Foreign Language course.
As a trained mental health professional, I was also able assist with mental health concerns, behavioral concerns, positive behavioral support, academic, and classroom support, consultation with teachers, parents, and administrators as well as provide individual and group counseling/therapy. My role was instrumental in furthering the mission of the schools in my district which was to provide a setting for teaching, learning, and for the attainment of competence and confidence.

Additionally, innovation and problem-solving are part of my skill set, with proficiency in planning. Experience in interacting with diverse populations has given me in-depth understanding and awareness of differences in both individuals and organizations. These qualities will contribute to teaching.

●I am a skilled and enthusiastic English Language Teacher/tutor with 2 years of experience developing lesson plans and curriculum for students young and in their adolescence stage, online and in physical classrooms.

●I'm equipped with the Communicative Teaching Method. I apply this method in the classroom through interactive, student-centered activities that maximize “student talk time”.

● My strongest skills are that I am an empath who is skilled in verbal and nonverbal communication, especially when meeting people for the first time. I generally have calm and engaging energy, which makes me easy to talk to (with kids especially), and I easily adapt to new environments due to my curious and open minded approach to different cultures.

dedicated to promoting learner development and assisting students in achieving their educational objectives.

I am a well educated, well spoken and extremely adaptive young graduate with a bachelors and a masters degree. I have spent five years in education to improve myself and reach new levels in my life and make myself the best, most educated and highest achieving person. I have a massive desire to become an excellent EFL teacher and leave the UK to explore the world and perhaps, in the long run, call a new place home.

I am a happy person who always looks at the bright side and is grateful for everything in this life. I am ready to work hard and commit myself to a new endeavour. In terms of my personality, I am someone who is always happy, I am patient, friendly and very kind, yet I am always aware of my surroundings and analyse and adapt well.

With a recently acquired Master's degree in Classics, I am eager to bring my passion for education and cross- cultural exchange to South Korea.
During my academic journey, I developed strong communication skills, a keen understanding of linguistic nuances, and a deep appreciation for fostering a collaborative and inclusive learning environment. My academic background has equipped me with the ability to connect with diverse audiences, making me well-suited for a role that requires effective communication, such as teaching English in a foreign context.
As a recent graduate, I am excited about the prospect of immersing myself in the vibrant culture of South Korea while contributing to the educational experience of students. This cross-cultural program aligns with my own dedication to fostering a love for learning and promoting cultural exchange. My dedication to education, coupled with my adaptability and enthusiasm, positions me as a strong candidate for the English teaching position. I am confident that my academic background, passion for teaching, and commitment to creating a positive and engaging classroom environment make me an ideal fit.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the dynamic learning environment and positively impact the lives of students through the English language.

I have just recently graduated with a First Class Bachelor (Honours) of Arts in History at the University of Oxford and I am currently studying for a Master of Letters in Middle Eastern History at the University of St Andrews. This has gifted me the ability to deal with high-intensity workloads, develop great writing skills, and meet deadlines. I have a passion for education, having educated younger students in literacy and numeracy lessons while at middle school and currently taking up private tutoring positions at U2 Tuition and Superprof. These passions can be expanded through this teaching position, granting me the chance to inspire language learners, bridge cultural gaps, and exchange ideas between myself and students.
Adaptability has been a constant theme throughout my professional and educational journey. As a lifeguard for four years, I honed my ability to remain composed and focused in high-pressure situations, demonstrating adaptability in ensuring the safety and well-being of others. Moreover, my role as Men's captain of Lincoln College Boat Club, alongside the intense final year of my History degree, required effective leadership, time management, organisation, and flexibility in organising a twenty-six hour timetable of rowing outings, coordinating with coaches, other committee members, and other boat clubs, attending regular meetings, fundraising for boat club finances, hiring and interviewing coaches, and writing contracts. This all involved managing a diverse team, fostering collaboration, and navigating challenges to achieve common goals.
I have a genuine passion for language education, shown through my 188-hour TEFL course and a diverse background that includes tutoring and volunteering experiences, all of which equips me for educating, safeguarding, and relationship building with young learners and children. Adaptability is evidenced through working with students of varying abilities, from young students struggling at middle school, to university applicants, to university students, tailoring my approach to meet individual learning needs. Moreover, my voluntary work as a team leader for Lincoln College Vacation Project, where I supervised and cared for children in social care on residential trips, further demonstrates this flexibility, looking after children with disadvantaged backgrounds and some with significant behavioural issues. These experiences not only enriched my ability to communicate effectively, but also heightened my sensitivity to diverse backgrounds and learning styles.
In concurrence with my adaptability, I possess relevant teaching and mentoring experiences. In the summer of 2022, I undertook an 188-hour TEFL qualification, including a seventy-nine-hour methodology course, a level five grammar course, and a principles of teaching course, providing me with relative experience of teaching English in a non-native English speaking country. This has exposed me to the nuances of the English language and made me confident in my ability to assist students in their language acquisition journey. I have provided tutoring at middle school and high school levels, aiding less able students in developing literacy and numeracy skills. Currently, I tutor a student undertaking a BA in History, combing my passion for the subject with personalised and effective teaching approaches. Furthermore, my involvement in aiding university applications through mock interviews, personal statement analysis, and written work sample evaluations demonstrates my commitment to fostering academic and personal growth in young individuals.

I have one year experience teaching English. I taught in Spain and in Ireland. In Spain I was responsible for 10 classes and 72 students aged5-65. I followed the daily lesson plans and conducted my lessons accordingly. I gave and corrected homework every week online. I conducted a test at the end of every chapter for students. I created a “pen-pal” system for students with a school in Italy, which improved motivation and participation in the class.

In Ireland I was responsible for teaching classes to adults. I had a different class every week, and I had to follow the weekly “scheme of work” to adhere to school guidelines. I taught students from over 20 countries and from ages5-65, which allowed me to understand and cater for diverse learning needs. I played guitar and sang songs with students on Fridays.

I am somebody who is always looking to improve as a teacher. I am passionate about teaching and about helping students achieve their goals.

I have spent much of my academic and professional career in counseling and mentoring children who struggle economically, emotionally, mentally, and physically. I have been formally trained as a crisis counselor and am eligible for a counseling license. Currently, I work as a mentor for students in their career planning. As an after-school leader, I was responsible for creating lesson plans and activities that would engage students creatively and promote critical thinking. My dedication and patience have helped me to address and cater to my student’s needs. I found through my experience as a counselor that building rapport and having empathy for my clients not only helps them to feel heard but addresses issues with the intent of resolution. I am a compassionate and hardworking person and thus strive to find methods to connect with students and their families that help build the support they need for their emotional and career development.

I have one year of teaching in Korea already and I am currently located in Daegu. I'm very patient and and can work with all ages. I prefer to make activities fun and like to especially focus on pronunciation.

I graduated in 2018 with a BA General specialising in Psychology and received my TEFL certificate in 2021. I have also just completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Education, specialising in Life Orientation. I am awaiting my certificate.
Because I have been studying since 2015, I do not have any formal teaching experience. I have been tutoring primary, high school and university learners since 2018 in various subjects.

I am a hard worker and truly put a lot of effort in my studies and my work as tutor. I have always wanted to work with children and believe I would make a great teacher because I am compassionate and patient, but also not scared to be a little bit silly if it means I get learners to engage. I believe that every child or person should be given the opportunity to achieve their best, and I could help guide them.

I speak English and Afrikaans, and I can speak French on a B1 level. I have basic computer skills. I am proficient at lesson planning, and I have good problem-solving skills, leadership skills, working well with others and I am adaptable.

Hello Hiring Manager,

I have taught English for 2 years from the middle of 2019 to the middle of 2021 at Chungdahm Learning in Seongbuk-gu. Teaching during that time period allowed for experience in-class as well as online. As we had students on the waiting list during peak Covid times, I believe that my particular hagwon was of the highest teaching and learning standards.
I learned everything about teaching and hagwon operations. During my time at Chungdahm, I was required to create materials such as projects, homework, exams and other course-related content. I also became quite involved with the desk teacher and parent interactions. At one point, I was asked to privately tutor one of the top students for her interview at a top-10 world-renown business school in France- she was accepted!
I have a great empathy for my students. Perhaps my greatest passion is getting to know and understand people. Usually, I like to build relationships with the younger students because they have much more to offer. They normally don’t try to hide any opinions or information that they might be judged about. But, every student is also equal unless they break the classroom rules and reasonable punishment is acceptable.
Outside of teaching, I try to stay disciplined. I like to go to the gym everyday, usually before work. Minimum 2 hours. Cooking at home is also a daily routine. Meal prep for me is always very important and healthier than eating out.

Thank you for considering me,

Adam

Teaching has always been a calling for me, and my decision to transition from a marketing career to education is driven by a genuine desire to make a positive impact on the lives of others.

In addition to my professional background, I am an avid reader and a poet in my free time. My love for literature and creative expression has deepened my understanding of the English language, and I am excited about the opportunity of sharing this passion with students. I firmly believe that a love for language through literature and creative writing can inspire students to become more effective communicators.

I am confident that my enthusiasm, coupled with my dedication to creating an engaging and inclusive learning environment would have an enormous impact on students willing to learn the English language. I would welcome the opportunity to contribute to the educational journey of students in South Korea and to further develop my own skills as an educator.
