As a newly qualified TEFL teacher, I am a resourceful, confident, and hard-working individual with proven success forging relationships with people from diverse cultures and backgrounds. I am a great communicator and enthusiastic team player, with the initiative and drive to take charge and lead when needed. My previous experience has laid the perfect foundation on which to build my teaching career.

Bachelor Of Arts degree holder with vast experience in English, literature and writing.
19+ years’ experience as an ESL teacher and tutor in Taiwan.
Well-versed in modern teaching approaches and assessment methods.
Experience teaching kindergarten, baby classes (4–6-year-olds), middle school, high school, and adult students.
Personally exhibit a fun, relaxed and open-minded approach to teaching and tutoring English as a foreign language.

I currently work as a student aide where I help to teach English language arts, history, math, science, and computer science. Primarily, I work with children who possess learning disabilities who require an immense amount of close attention and care. I love working in this position because it allows me to try a variety of teaching techniques. I believe that I am a creative teacher who enjoys kinetic learning while also being open to adapting to unfamiliar techniques, if I believe it will serve a purpose. I have logged hundreds of hours as an aide and a tutor and also serve in extracurricular sports as a coach. I am not a shy or reserved person and enjoy being around people and learning about their life experiences. Most of all, I love teaching to someone who has little to no grasp on a topic. There is nothing more exciting than seeing a student struggle with a concept and then eventually become a master of it.

As a recent graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology I am eager to bring my skills and dedication to an international setting. Throughout my academic journey and teaching experiences, I have cultivated a deep passion for guiding students toward achieving their full potential. Whether I was implementing interactive lesson plans, facilitating group discussions, or providing personalized support, my goal has always been to create a stimulating and inclusive learning environment that encourages student engagement and academic growth. My adaptability and cultural sensitivity have been honed through diverse interactions with students from various backgrounds. I firmly believe in the value of cultural exchange within the educational landscape and am excited about the prospect of contributing to an international school environment. Embracing cultural diversity and integrating global perspectives into the curriculum is a cornerstone of my teaching philosophy. The opportunity to immerse myself in a new educational setting while contributing positively to the lives of students in an international context excites me immensely.

Hello, I am an enthusiastic and creative 23-year-old who for many years has wanted to be part of a TEFL programme.

I first heard about teaching English as a foreign language whilst in Vietnam when I was 18 and I was instantly intrigued by the opportunity. As lover of exploring new cultures, history, food, music and people, I saw TEFL as a chance to throw myself completely into a brand-new culture whilst being tasked with the important and rewarding job of aiding people’s education.

My inner urge to travel and see the world has taken me to some incredible places such as Cambodia, India, Peru, Hong Kong and many more. This has helped me develop the ability to adapt, respect and integrate with a wide variety of cultures. It has also immensely developed my communication skills to enable me to feel comfortable and confident in conversing with a spectrum of people, both individually and in groups.

My previous teaching experience involves volunteering as a teaching assistant with the El Rio foundation in the north of Colombia where I aided permanent teachers, working as part of a team to improve their lessons which involved: English, Art and Sport. My goal from this experience was to learn whether I wanted to commit to a full-time teaching position in a foreign country or not. The rewarding feeling after seeing the children’s progression made me realise the importance of education and convinced me that this area of work is perfect for me.

After graduating from university – alongside completing my TEFL qualification – I have spent the last 10 months working for myself in creating a successful art business where I make and sell my art to consumers all around the world. This has involved a lot of organisation, time management and hard work, traits which I believe to be essential for teachers. It also shows my driven nature to succeed in what I set my mind to. The business is now self-sufficient for the next year, which is why I believe this is the right time for me make the most of my TEFL qualification and make a real difference.

For a long time, I have wanted to experience and live in South Korea. This is why I believe one of your exciting opportunities to teach in Seoul is the perfect fit for me. I am more than excited to get to know this incredible place and its people, and I think my enthusiasm will only enhance my potential as an educator.

I am a confident decision maker and solution finder driven by results. Multitasking is part of my DNA, along with the ability to keep cool and level headed under pressure, quick to find solutions to issues before they become problems. I have learned that long-term goals are best achieved when I break them into shorter goals.
My short-term goal is to find a teaching position that will put me in a forward-moving school/academy with solid performance and future projections. As part of a team, I want to add value and continue to grow the educational institute.
Success is my only option, I am driven, motivated and seek/achieve nothing but the best. I do not follow in paths but create my own so others can follow.

With a genuine and nurturing nature, combined with a professional and ambitious approach, I possess the primary skills needed in my field, including team building , excellent communication and good classroom management skills . Additionally, time-management and progress monitoring are part of my skills set, with proficiency in leadership. I am a very hardworking individual with exceptional multi-tasking skills, who is always reading up on the latest research studies published in order to provide efficient and effective services in my workplace. In addition, I am a very committed person who enjoys helping others and I believe my wonderful affinity with people of all ages, especially children makes me a great candidate. Also, during school holidays I freely tutor learners around my community for English and history lessons. This inspires me to give back and help the community in any little way that I can. I have the ability to focus on details, work towards perfection, and approach work in a neat and organized manner. I am proficient in using MS office, adhering to rules and strictly following work regulations.

I am a qualified ESL Teacher with a background in Social work and facilitation. I have facilitated educational groups at various schools. I am an attentive listener and I have the ability to think on my feet in unforseen circumstances. I'm generally more approachable than most people. The first thing people usually observe and say about me is that I'm very friendly. I am hardworking and I always look forward to a new challenge.

I have tutored University Students and also learners from Grade 7 to Grade 12. My warm personality and willingness to always help made classroom management easy for me as learners were always willing to cooperate. I work well with kids as I have a very playful nature and laughter here and there goes a long way for the kids. The aim is to always make learning fun.

In my teaching experience I have seen that leaners come into the classroom with open minds, and it is the teacher’s responsibility to expand their minds with information so that they can use the acquired knowledge to build their personalities and broaden their thought processes to help them solve problems of everyday life. Another thing that has always worked for me in my teaching years is knowing that students have different needs and they grab information differently. As a teacher, I need to be able to consider that when I prepare my lesson. Also, interacting with my students during my free periods has helped me a lot because I get to see if students understood the lesson. I’m currently teaching English and having to communicate with my students in English, even when it is not in a classroom a lesson, improves their self-esteem and they are able to express themselves in English. I am a passionate and a friendly person, thus it’s easier for kids to communicate with me.

I have 1y10months working as Cabin Crew, travelling across Europe ensuring passengers have a safe and enjoyable journey. Through this I meet people from a wide range of different cultures, and interact with them often.
10 months experience as a Supervisor role, preparing cabin and roles, training crew if necessary.

I am very eager to learn about new cultures and languages, and also to share culture and language with others.

While I don't have much teaching experience, I have seen many different teaching styles, through school, university + job training, and can use my experiences there to develop a good teaching style.

Recently completed a 200hr TEFL course online.

I am a kind and friendly individual, able to work well under pressure and maintain a professional demeanor in a classroom setting. I have just completed my Celta qualification and had fantastic feedback from my tutors regarding my lesson planning and performance so I feel I would be well suited to a teaching role. I currently work in administration within an English language academy for adult students and have been observing the teachers lessons to gain further experience in how lessons are given and different teaching methods. I was also heavily involved in our junior school programmes over the summer and easter holidays, staying in the residential accommodation with our students, planning all excursions and managing the students on excursions. Throughout all my jobs I have often worked in public facing roles so I feel that my communication and listening skills are great. I am looking forward to starting a new career within the English language teaching community.

I am an experienced ESL teacher with over 4 years experience online and in person. My most recent experience is as a Homeroom Teacher in Mapo-gu. Within this position I also taught the first ever international class at the school which included teaching English, Math, Science, Social Studies and even arts. We performed a short musical for parents. Although my time at this school was short, it was very impactful on not only me but the school as well. I created the curriculum on my own and had free reign over the topics taught. This meant studying topics such as creative writing, book reports, the life cycle and so much more.

I have recently graduated with an Honors degree in Children's Literature and Creative Writing from a UK university and am currently completing a 120 hour TEFL qualification.

I have an F6 visa and therefore do not require sponsorship to work in Korea.

I am a hard working, determined young woman. I am very passionate about making a change through education.
I was volunteering at my University as a Radio Presenter and Producer. I used to mentor new students at student media, I was responsible for employee wellness, I was a part of the disciplinary committee.

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Mosa, and I’m writing to express my keen interest in teaching English in Korea. South Africa has been my home, and I am excited about the prospect of contributing to an educational environment in Korea.

I have diligently prepared my necessary documents for placement in a Hagwon and am eager to embark on this fulfilling journey. Your online presence and commitment to collaborating with esteemed schools resonate with my aspirations in this field. I admire the support you provide to teachers throughout the placement process, and I am enthusiastic about the possibility of working with you.

I have a passion for learning, good organisational skills and I adapt easily to new environments. Strong communication skills with patience and understanding.

Thank you for considering my application.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Warm regards,

Mosa

I have much experience with working with children in formal education settings. I had worked as a teaching assistant at the African Angels school in East Chintsa, South Africa as part of a placement programme whilst studying at Sheffield Hallam University. This gave me a good introduction to teaching English as a foreign language (many of the students spoke Xhosa as their mother tongue). I also have over 12 months of experience as a teaching assistant in UK based schools, diversifying my skills in education by learning conflict resolution and different teaching styles.

I consider myself to be hard-working, empathetic and adaptive. I hold myself to high standards in whatever I do and always look to learn as much about a role as possible so I can deliver the best performance. I am patient, knowing that students have different ways of learning and taking on information, and knowing that your approach to teaching needs to flexible so that all learners can take something valuable from a lesson.

As a politics graduate and an individual with a passion for story-telling in my spare time I am adept at writing and teaching others how to improve the structure and quality of their essays, poems and stories. Other skills include being comfortable using a variety of IT systems and building a rapport with individuals from a range of backgrounds and differing professions.

Thank you for your time in reading this.

In terms of my strengths, I communicate well and thoroughly, meaning that I can efficiently explain and understand lesson plans while effectively responding to students struggling to understand the topic. I adapt very easily, I am well traveled and although I have never been to South Korea specifically, I find settling into new places to be a quick process. I am eager to continue learning, I understand my knowledge is not absolute and I learn from my mistakes every day. Finally, I bring a strong energy everywhere I go. I have the ability to stay excited about the task at hand, and I hope to let that excitement spread to all my students wherever I go.

I have pervious experiences of both teaching English as a foreign language and in a public school. I have worked in education administration for many years and really enjoy working with the students and helping them to reach their goals.

I love learning and hope to pass this affection on to my students by providing them with lots of resources that will facilitate their learning inside and outside the classroom. I have experience of doing this through my many years working in Education administration. I have great digital skills with experience in Microsoft office apps. I also have fantastic research skills.

I am a calm and organised person who works hard both independently and as a part of the team. I love history and exploring other cultures. I especially love film, tv and when I am not watching something I like to do archery, swimming and walking.
