With one year of teaching in South Korea already established under my belt, I can confidently say that I am familiar with the world of South Korean academies. Additionally, as my previous contract worked closely with Elementary and Middle School aged students, I have experience with building a strong rapport with students along these age groups. My personal teaching philosophy aligns with the idea of using textbooks as a tool, but to not rely on them completely — that in order to learn a language, they must begin thinking in that language. Thinking in English – when paired with activities, pop culture, team-building projects, and creative outlets – allows the brain to feel more comfortable with a structure that had previously been foreign. Thus, I love to enter the classroom by having basic conversations with my students, engaging in their shared interests and using them as leverage during lessons, and implementing task-based learning methods that allows them to gain confidence in English.

i would say that I am dedicated, hardworking individual. I'm someone who has experience in leading teams, educating students, and ensuring high-quality standards across a variety of products. I've obtained a combined GA Level 3 Certificate in TEFL with a focus on young-learner education as well as a BA in General Studies with a focus on cultural studies, which allows me to teach various students from different backgrounds and levels across the world with an understanding of cultural differences.

I'm also an experienced content creator and artist with a technical degree that has given me skills to handle problems and hurdles with creative and unique approaches. Some of my skills include being proficient in a variety of software programs from video-editing to the complete MS-Office and Photoshop suites.

If you want a creative, team-driven, and quality-focused individual who has an empathetic and learner-based focus to education, then I'd say that I am the perfect candidate.

My background experience i believe would translate well into a teaching position. My creative design skills allow me to create engaging lesson plans and materials. Also, after recent travel experience across China and Vietnam I found I could adapt well to different cultural environments, I also found a passion for helping the local people improve their conversational English skills. I have experience working for major brands such as Skechers and JD sports where the ability to handle pressure and multitask is essential. My personality is calm and assured.

I am an outgoing, adventurous, and passionate person in all manners, professional or personal. Throughout my time at university in Madrid, Spain, I developed a passion for the English language in all its uses. By taking on leadership roles in both student-led and university-sanctioned programs, I learned I had a knack for helping others in the many stages of their English-speaking journeys. Additionally, my years of client-facing roles in the service industry have strengthened my dependability, drive, and leadership. A friendly and approachable attitude has granted me friendships all over the world and in all aspects of life, giving me the chance to strengthen social skills with those from different walks of life. I look forward to new opportunities and am excited for new challenges and experiences within any position I hold.

My experience in healthcare and academic administration has uniquely prepared me to be an effective, patient, and highly organized English teacher in South Korea. In my role at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, I coordinated interpretation support for over 200 different languages and managed patient relations. This daily immersion in cross-cultural communication taught me how to bridge steep language gaps, anticipate student frustrations, and maintain total composure during high-stress situations. It also honed my ability to practice empathy and active listening, traits that are essential for making young or non-native learners feel comfortable and supported in a classroom. Additionally, my work as a Graduate Assistant at the University of Illinois Chicago sharpened my operational and educational design skills. I routinely audited and updated academic documents to maximize readability and clarity, which directly translates to designing accessible lesson plans. Combined with my 120-hour TEFL certification, I have the practical toolkit needed to break down complex grammatical concepts, track student progress efficiently, and keep a classroom highly organized and engaging.

Holder of a 120-hour TEFL/TESOL qualification, an Advanced Certificate in Teaching Young Learners, and an Advanced Certificate in Teaching Business English from TEFL.org. A highly motivated and adaptable professional with a BSc (Hons) in Geography and Environmental Science from the Open University.
Experienced in training, coaching, mentoring, and presenting to diverse audiences through
leadership roles in operations management and volunteer community education. Skilled at creating engaging learning environments, building positive relationships, and adapting communication styles to suit learners of different ages and abilities. Passionate about cultural exchange, language education, and supporting students in achieving confidence and fluency in English.

With a Master's degree from King's College London and a State of Wisconsin teaching license, my professional experience spans domestic urban classrooms and international programs in South Korea and China, where I have successfully guided diverse student populations through rigorous academic frameworks. Driven by a culturally competent, adaptable, and supportive personality, I excel at navigating complex linguistic and cultural barriers to build trust, resolve conflcits, and foster personal and academic growth in my students.

My experience with children ranges from ages 5-18 years old. I have experience teaching students in one on one music lessons, large group ensemble rehearsals, and student management with students as a school bus driver. My strengths lie in my patience, understanding, acceptance, and resilience. I consider myself a forever learner and naturally curious about the world. I believe this traits make me well suited in the position of NES teacher.

Hello!

My name is Oscar and I'm starting the process of looking for a teaching position in South Korea for 2027.

Having taught kindergarten and primary levels in Hong Kong and China, I believe I am suitable for teaching positions in South Korea.

What separates me from other teachers is my other experiences. I graduated with a philosophy degree (don't worry, I have a level 5, 200 hour TEFL qualification and have since gained TKT band 3 certification for Young Learners), and my degree gives me an edge in communication and critical thinking. Fundamental 21st century skills. I also worked as a camp counselor in the USA showcasing an excellent ability to care for young children 24/7 for months, coaching sports, wilderness activities, and aiding them daily as they live away from home for the first time. I was awarded counselor of the summer for the young age group.

I am extremely passionate about teaching and my key skills are patience; and being able to create fun, engaging lessons where the children have fun and learn.

I look forward to, and dearly hope for, the chance to work with you.

My TEFL training spans specialist modules in young learners, Business English, EAP (English for Academic Purposes), exam preparation, neurodiverse learners, and online teaching, complementing my existing, extensive expertise in lesson planning, differentiation, and both formative and summative assessment. I am currently delivering online ESL and French tuition and have previously delivered ESL group sessions.

I have taught at the elementary level for two years in Medellin, Colombia (1991-1993) and have taught at the university level at Keimyung University in Daegu, South Korea (2010-2012). I enjoyed my experience in Daegu immensely–so much so that I look forward to returning to South Korea once more. As I am now retired from academia, I look forward to once again teaching young children. I possess a wealth of patience when working with children, and both my vast experience and maturity help me to navigate with a calm demeanor any unexpected hiccups that may arise in the teaching process.

I bring fun and positive energy to our interactions and i prioritize clear and effective communication, cultivate confidence so that students from any background can easily understand and engage.
