EDUCATION
SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY, San Diego, CA – Bachelor’s degree, Business Admin.

I have nearly nine years of experience working with children through long-term nannying roles, caring for a wide range of ages. I also gained classroom exposure through education-related coursework and classroom observations during my university studies.

I am patient, reliable, and enthusiastic, with a calm but engaging teaching style. I adapt well to new environments, enjoy working as part of a team, and value creating a supportive classroom where students feel confident expressing themselves in English.

I have a strong passion and knowledge of the English language, excellent communication and organization skills, and I am comfortable following structured curricula. I am eager to learn, receptive to feedback, and confident using provided materials and training to deliver engaging, effective lessons.

I finished university with a bachelors degree in Child Learning and Development and Psychology. I then moved to Madrid Spain where I taught English for two years in the classroom, ages 3 to 17. Simultaneously, I am receiving a certificate of ESL methodology from the University of Comillas through my program called BEDA. I absolutely love learning new languages, cultures, and living in new places. I am naturally a very curious individual. I love interacting with students and being able to share language.

TEFL-certified educator (Level 5, 168-hour) with additional training in online instruction and language methodology. I am currently completing a BA in English Language and TEFL (graduating July 2026) and hold a Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language from the University of Essex.

I value structured learning environments, clear communication, and creating supportive classrooms where students feel confident using English. I am committed to professional conduct, cultural respect, and long-term development as an educator.

Here’s a polished and professional summary based on what you shared:

**Experience:**
I am an elementary school teacher at a dual language school with experience supporting diverse learners. As someone who learned a second language as an adult, I bring personal insight into the language acquisition process and apply effective, research-based strategies when teaching new languages to others. I have also worked abroad as a guidance counselor, supporting children’s academic, social, and emotional development. Additionally, I have experience implementing a variety of curricula and can confidently adapt lessons to meet the needs of different groups.

**Personality:**
Creative, culturally responsive, and student-centered. I am adaptable, empathetic, and skilled at building meaningful relationships with students from diverse backgrounds.

**Skills:**
Engaging lesson planning, differentiated instruction, dual language education, curriculum adaptation, classroom management, cross-cultural communication, and social-emotional support. I design interactive learning experiences that are responsive to students’ needs and learning styles.

I am a native English speaker, graduate, and UK citizen with a post-graduate diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language.

As I have spent several years living in Spain, my command of the language is of near native to native speaker level. I also took a TEFLA certificate course in teaching English to as a foreign language twenty two years ago and have since taught youngsters from 6 -12 years of age as part of my 25 hour weekly timetable, the remainder of the classes being with teenagers and adults.

I am currently teaching General and Business English to adults, children and companies both face to face and via skype, virtual classroom and telephone. I teach general and business English, ESP and prepare students for the Cambridge PET, KET, 1ST CERTIFICATE, IELTS, CAE, CPE and BEC and Oxford Tutorial Certificate examinations.

I have a large portfolio of materials to provide practice in all skills areas.

I have experience working with students of different ages, including working with students with a range of special educational support needs.

In the past, I have worked as a learning support assistant in a secondary school, working with students who each had various support needs. I offered support in various subject areas, including maths, science and English. I became experienced in adapting to each student's needs and utilised various approaches depending on the student I was working with. I also regularly liaised with teaching staff, the senior leadership team, and safeguarding leads, as well as other staff within the SEN department.

As an undergraduate, I have also interned for several projects, during which I engaged with younger (pre-university) students. I aided in developing and delivering educational workshops, tutoring and mentoring students, and providing feedback on student projects.

I would describe myself as being approachable, reliable and diligent, with excellent communication, collaboration, and organisational skills.

I am a dedicated and enthusiastic educator with over seven years of tutoring experience, supporting students across a range of ages and abilities. Over the past year, I have specialised in Special Educational Needs tutoring, developing tailored lesson plans that prioritise patience, adaptability, and clear communication. This experience has strengthened my ability to create inclusive, supportive learning environments where every student feels confident to participate and progress.
I hold a 2:1 degree in Biochemistry, which has equipped me with strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and engaging way. Having recently completed my TEFL certification, I am eager to apply effective classroom strategies, communicative teaching methods, and structured lesson planning in an international setting.
I am passionate about cultural exchange and committed to fostering positive, motivating classroom environments. I would bring professionalism, warmth, and reliability to a teaching role in Korea.

Experience:
I recently completed my TEFL certification, where I gained training in lesson planning, classroom management, and communicative teaching methods. Although I am at the beginning of my professional teaching career, I am well-prepared and eager to apply my training in a classroom setting.

Personality:
I am patient, enthusiastic, and dependable. I enjoy working with young learners and creating a positive, supportive environment where students feel comfortable and confident participating in English.

Skills:
I am skilled in planning engaging activities, using games and interactive techniques to encourage speaking, and maintaining structured classroom routines. I am adaptable, organised, and committed to continuous improvement as an educator.

I bring over five years of hands-on experience teaching the English language across diverse academic settings, equipping learners with both communicative competence and critical thinking skills. As a former Head of Department (HOD) for English Language, I have successfully managed curricula, supervised fellow educators, and maintained high standards of academic delivery. My experience extends beyond the classroom: I have coordinated seminars and professional development workshops, facilitated community advocacy programmes, and collaborated with institutions to address educational and social challenges. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Bilingual Studies, a Master of Arts in English Language, and a PhD in English Language, all earned from the University of Dschang, Cameroon — a testament to my deep scholarly grounding in linguistics and language education.
Personality
I am a passionate, patient, and culturally sensitive educator who genuinely believes in the transformative power of language. I approach every learner with empathy and adaptability, tailoring my teaching methods to meet diverse needs and learning styles. My experience as a community advocate has sharpened my ability to listen, engage, and inspire — qualities I carry directly into the classroom. I am resilient, open-minded, and deeply committed to cross-cultural understanding, making me well-suited to thrive in South Korea's dynamic and multicultural educational environment.
Skills
My core strengths include advanced English language instruction, curriculum design, academic research, and public speaking. I possess strong leadership skills honed through departmental management and seminar coordination, alongside excellent interpersonal and communication abilities developed through years of community engagement. I am proficient in bilingual education, having studied and taught in both English and French environments, which uniquely positions me to connect with learners from varied linguistic backgrounds. I am also a confident collaborator, capable of working effectively within institutional teams toward shared educational goals.

I bring a strong foundation in team environments and wanting to help others, shaped by years of hands on work in fast paced settings. My background in sports and coaching has taught me how to lead, communicate clearly, stay disciplined, and perform under pressure. I’m comfortable working with diverse groups of people, resolving challenges quickly, and maintaining professionalism even during high stress situations. I love people, learning new things, and coaching/teaching from the skills i've learned in my life. Im passionate about creating connections! I have emotional intelligence, highly adaptable, open minded, and solution driven.

Strong communication: able to connect with customers, colleagues, and leadership clearly and respectfully.
Team collaboration: years of sports and coaching taught me how to work within a team dynamic, support others, and step into leadership when needed.
Problem‑solving: comfortable assessing situations quickly and guiding toward efficient solutions.
Adaptability: thrive in changing environments, learn new systems quickly, and adjust smoothly to new expectations.
Work ethic & discipline: developed through competitive sports, coaching responsibilities, and fast‑paced work roles.

I have over 20 years experience teaching English and have worked with all ages from 5-adult and all levels. Thanks to my degree in Linguistics and my experience, I can confidently explain all aspects of the English language such as grammar and phonetics. In addition to teaching, I have led and supervised several extracurricular activities and excursions as part of my job.

I am a friendly and open person and enjoy meeting people of all different cultures. I like to build a good rapport with my students and remain friendly but professional. I have a clear voice and can adapt my language to suit the different levels of learners. I enjoy working as part of a team and sharing my ideas with others.

For differentiation, I always have extension tasks on hand for the stronger students/faster finishers and scaffold the weaker students with closer monitoring and pairing them up with stronger students. I have used a variety of techniques for assessment, for example written and spoken tests, feedback sessions, tutorials and homework. I have participated in several CPD sessions and peer and formal observations during my previous employment.

I am very flexible and willing to take on extra hours/cover work when required. I am also enthusiastic to help with activities and excursions, and have previous experience of both, as well as pastoral care duties at residential summer schools. I think it is important to be punctual and professional at all times and complete all administrative tasks on time.

I have practical experience supporting young learners through recent volunteering in local schools and leading activities at children’s summer camps. Additionally, my background in management consulting has strengthened my organisational, communication and planning abilities, which I apply to lesson preparation and classroom management.

I consider myself friendly, approachable, and enthusiastic, and I enjoy connecting with young learners and helping them feel confident. I’m patient and sympathetic, and I adapt easily to new environments, always aiming to make learning fun and engaging.

I hold a 120 hour TEFL certificate but do not yet have formal EFL teaching experience. As this would be my first EFL teaching position I would be very grateful for the initial training on offer.

My ambition is to forge a career as an English teacher, with an emphasis on older children and young adults. I am especially passionate about teaching at secondary level or above. To initiate this journey, I successfully completed an online Level 3 Award in Education and Training course, as well as a TEFL course through The TEFL Academy. I am currently studying at The Open University, and by 2027 I will have obtained a degree in Childhood & Youth Studies. I am now eager to obtain more practical classroom experience and further refine my teaching skills by applying the theoretical knowledge I have acquired. I am enthusiastic about creating a nurturing and engaging learning environment where students can enhance their confidence and language skills.
