To Whom It May Concern,

My name is Heather Daniels and I apply to the ESL teacher position at your institution equipped with a strong passion for educating youth and adults. The English language is an essential skill to possess in this increasingly globalized world and I would like to teach it in a dynamic and creative way. My experiences and qualifications fit the needs of this position because I am an effective and passionate teacher and I am an innovative and hardworking employee.

For the past 10 years I have worked in the educational sector in a variety of capacities. I have taught ESL in the United States, Thailand, Turkey, and have led study abroad programs and retreats in South Africa, Ghana and Peru. I have also advocated for children and young adults in a variety of capacities.

I have gained a tremendous amount of experience teaching children and adults of all levels and I have been trained extensively on IELTS and SAT, and have also spent the past few months as the native English teacher at Kabatas High School-one of the most competitive schools in Turkey-which has also been a very rewarding experience. Before moving abroad I served in the nonprofit sector working as a Site Manager for Jumpstart at Lehman College in New York. I am very passionate about education and community service and I put this passion into all of the work I do.

I am passionate about creating fun, engaging, and challenging learning opportunities for students to master the English language and enjoy traveling and exploring new cultures and consider myself to be a global citizen.

Currently, I am seeking a position that will enable me to strengthen my teaching skills while having an interesting international experience. I think your school would be a great opportunity for me to flourish as an educator and it would also provide me with the opportunity to do what I love most-teach. I am hoping to discuss my skills and qualifications in more depth in an interview. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Heather Daniels

Hi, I'm Onaopepo but most people call me Tunji, or “TJ” for short. I'm a recently graduated medical doctor from Shandong international school in China.

During my stay there I taught English part time, first at a formal private institute for about a year and then later moving on to become a private tutor for families in China, I did that for about 3 years.

I really enjoyed the experience as it brought be great joy and fulfillment, working with the kids was an absolute blast and I learnt so much from them too.

I'm someone who's eager to experience new things, I love learning. I'm charismatic but also very cool and collected, nothing really fazes me, I'm extremely patient, caring and have great communication skills.

I'm also a multifaceted individual, I enjoy playing sports as well as writing, art, painting, photography, cooking and baking so my kids and colleagues could definitely be treated to some brownies!

All in all I believe this role really suits, I find fulfillment in watching the kids learn and grow and the idea of immersing myself in a new culture in such a beautiful place as South Korea really excites me.

Having gained my current knowledge in in corporate finance and business, I have recently become intrigued by the thought of being able to teach abroad.
I am extremely interested in this opportunity and believe that my qualification, education, professional experience and personal qualities such as versatility, patience, resilience, kind and hardworking would make me a zealous and effective educator in the classroom.
I am extremely computer literate and have familiarised myself with a variety of administrative duties, which has enhanced my organisational, planning , process and supportive skills.
I am a team player, self-motivated as well as tend to enhance and encourage other individuals. Using this combined with my empathy, understanding and infectious enthusiasm, I do believe makes for a productive and conducive learning environment. I am an eloquent speaker and believer in effective, clear communication which is supported by myself usually being the one to assist my fellow colleagues with emails, speeches and presentations.

I am a recent college graduate with a degree in Business Administration, and I possess a unique set of strengths that make me well-suited for a teaching position in South Korea:

Cultural Immersion: My study abroad semester in Suwon, South Korea, in March 2022 allowed me to deeply immerse myself in Korean culture. This experience broadened my understanding of the local culture, customs, and education system, enabling me to relate more effectively to students and colleagues.

Language Proficiency: I am self-taught in basic Korean skills, including reading, writing, and speaking. This linguistic ability not only facilitates effective communication with local communities but also demonstrates my dedication to connecting with students and their families on a personal level.

Engaging Personality: My calm yet engaging personality is a valuable asset when working with children. I have a natural ability to create a comfortable and interactive learning environment, encouraging students to actively participate and learn with enthusiasm.

Adaptability and Quick Learning: My experiences, including studying abroad and self-teaching Korean, have honed my adaptability and quick learning skills. I thrive in new and unfamiliar environments, readily embracing challenges and utilizing them as opportunities for personal and professional growth.

These strengths, combined with my educational background in Business Administration, make me a well-rounded candidate for a teaching position in South Korea. I am eager to leverage these qualities to inspire and empower students while contributing positively to the educational community in South Korea.

My name is Katherine Hyon, and I am a seasoned educator, writer, and editor with more than 15 years of experience. As much as I love my current position as Assistant Professor of English at an American University, I have always desired to travel to Korea in order to connect with my Korean heritage and also to contribute to the culture and society that I proudly claim as my own. Although I was born in Seoul, I immigrated to the United States when I was only 2 years old, so I am a native English speaker; I have been educated in the American school system from kindergarten through my graduate degree programs. I hold BA, MFA, and PhD degrees in English and Writing, and I believe that my extensive teaching experience will be an asset to your organization and your students.

While most of my formal teaching experience has been in the university, I feel confident that I can effectively teach English to all ages and grade levels. Throughout the course of my career, I have also provided my services as a private tutor in the areas of writing, reading, language acquisition, and standardized test preparation to students of all ages, from elementary school students to college graduates. I am confident that no matter what age group I engage, I can give my students the attention, care, and direction that they require so that their language skills will thrive. In my extensive experience working with students, I have learned that teaching is not confined to lesson plans, exams, and interactions that take place just in the classroom. Teachers have the potential to impact a young person’s life for the better, but that can only be done through example and authentic interactions. I believe that to be an effective educator, I must invest in the lives of my students and willingly be a mentor who can bring out a student’s full potential. I hope to be given the opportunity to do this with your organization.

From these positions, I have a wide range of essential skills namely: adapting and adjusting to the environment, ability to work in a team and individual, good communication, class management, patience, dealing with different cultures and being innovative. I am passionate and devoted to achieving high standards in what I do. My supervisors commented on my good attitude and willingness to learn new things. Holds a computer knowledge and is quick to adapt and learn new processes, information, systems and products.

I am eager to make a positive impact by fostering a love for language learning and cross-cultural understanding among students in an international setting.

Furthermore, my adaptability, openness, and strong communication skills have allowed me to connect with students from diverse backgrounds effortlessly. I am adept at building rapport and trust, which facilitates a positive learning experience for both myself and my students. In my previous roles, I have been commended for my patience, flexibility, and ability to foster a supportive learning community.

Beyond my passion for education, I am also deeply intrigued by the prospect of living and working in a foreign country. Embracing a new culture and language excites me, as I believe this immersion experience will enrich my teaching methods and deepen my global perspectives.

I am eager to contribute my skills and dedication to your institution and play an integral role in shaping the futures of aspiring language learners.
