Throughout August 2016 to June 2017, I worked as a teaching assistant at a middle school in Harlem, New York City for an after school program called Reel Works. I worked with 6th grade students and taught them basic videography and editing skills as well as simple animation. The after school also consisted of helping the students with their homework. Reel Works trained me in social and emotional learning, behavioral management, first aid, and classroom facilitation. Working with more than thirty 6th grade students who have been through various difficult living circumstances have really expanded my compassion and patience. At times it was very difficult, but the work was truly rewarding when I helped students feel better or learn something new. I believe that the role of a teacher is really important for students to feel like they can have fun learning something new in an environment where they feel safe enough to be themselves.

As a Korean person who has lived overseas most of her life, from Hong Kong, to the Philippines, to Canada and the United States, I want to be able to share my experiences with my students while understanding and meeting their needs. I would love to work with elementary students and teach them English in a fun and engaging way. From having multiple ESL teachers since 1st grade, I want to emulate the ways in which those teachers have shown me the compassion and understanding it takes to nurture a child's learning experience with English.

I am currently employed as Master Tutor for the Learning Assistance Center at California State University Long Beach. I believe that the skills I have acquired through my studies in the Master’s program at my university and my teaching experiences have prepared me for a position as an English teacher. Since I was a young boy, I have always wanted to be a teacher and help students reach their goals.
As Master Tutor, I have tutored international students from all over the world. I have developed my abilities as an English teacher helping these students with English at the university level. I taught students by focusing on the four language skills: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. As Master Tutor, I also gained leadership experience training other English tutors.
Prior to my current job, I was an English teacher at GEOS Languages Plus, a private language institute in California. I gained experience teaching young children and adolescents from various countries, and learned how to properly manage a classroom while at the same time making learning fun for students of all ages.
I am passionate about teaching English because I am a life-long language learner. Learning a new language should be fun, and when the students enjoy being in class and studying then they will learn better. I am an outgoing person who loves to talk to people.
I am confident that my experience in teaching and education in Linguistics will qualify me for consideration. If you would like, I have also attached my resume. I look forward to speaking with you and discussing my qualifications in more detail.

I am an enthusiastic person who is always friendly and smiling. As a sports therapy graduate, I am good at motivating people as well as teaching them new skills. I am also able to adapt to any situation I'm in. To work as a teacher, you would have to be patient with students when they're learning something new. Being patient is something that comes naturally to me .

Even though I have no previous teaching experience, I have experience working with children. I did some volunteering whilst i was at school with a holiday scheme/after school club for refugee/ asylum seekers' children. Here i was able to hone my organisation, planning, creativity and communication skills as i sometimes had plan sessions. I have also coached children in football and worked in a nursery.

I am nearing completion of my 120-hour TEFL course and I am looking to start teaching English in the New Year.

I am currently a personal trainer at Feelfit Gym in Oxford and teach a number of fitness classes as part of my role. Recently I travelled to Asia and had some amazing experiences, meeting people and immersing myself in local culture.

I first discovered a passion for teaching when I volunteered at a local primary school, teaching English to children aged 4 – 11. I would now like to combine my passion for teaching with my love of travel, and teach English as a foreign language in Asia.

I would love to talk to you about any vacancies you have.

I look forward to hearing from you.

While I do not have any professional experience with teaching, I am confident that a combination of the skills I have learnt at the TEFL course and my hobby of learning languages, will enable me to assist students with their target language. In addition to this, I have also studied at a Korean language school for 3 months, which has given me insight into making lessons productive, but still interesting.

If I had to describe my personality in three words, I would choose polite, friendly and helpful. This is because I tend to make friends easily and even in situations which may not be pleasant, I can give my opinion without offending anyone. I would also consider myself a very patient person, which can be useful in many scenarios.

My few of my skills include: efficiency with communication, being well-organized, I can deliver presentations to large audiences and I am computer literate.

I am a friendly, enthusiastic and creative person with an MA degree and one years English teaching experience in Hong Kong. Currently back in the UK I am now applying for English teaching positions across Asia.

I spent one year working as an English Teacher at Monkey Tree ELC, Hong Kong. The experience was truly fulfilling, where I taught students aged between 3-13 years old. The varying types and levels of classes which I taught included: Phonics (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced), Grammar & Writing, Reading & Speaking, Cambridge, Trinity (Levels 1-3), Chat Room and Private Tutoring, where the teaching syllabus was created by myself tailored for the individual student. Being able to build a rapport with the children and helping them develop and progress their English was rewarding and humbling.

Along with my highlighted teaching experience I have a TEFL 140 Hours Certificate through TEFL Org UK, a course which I thoroughly enjoyed and gained a plethora of knowledge and skills. Through completion of the course I gained experience in the strategy, planning, implementation and review of a lesson.

I believe my creative and friendly nature is a huge advantage in developing engaging creative classroom activities – working with both young and mature learners is something which I enjoy greatly. I also have knowledge and understating of; Teaching Large Classes, Teaching Business English and Teaching One-to-One English.
