I am a British Native Speaker who, after having come back from spending 6 months in South Korea au pairing for a Korean family, I became interested in returning and teaching. It will help me gain experience for the PhD I wish to complete in the future, in order to become an Educational Psychologist as well as my desire to deliver the passion and enthusiasm I have for working with children.

I have some experience in assisting in classroom environments (with children and adults), however have not had extensive teaching experience, apart from teaching children aged 3-8 yrs old, in a church setting for 7 years.

I have been described as warm, friendly and fair, which I think are traits needed for jobs involving children for them to feel comfortable and inspired to learn and have fun at the same time!

I grew to enjoy my time in Seoul, that I would like to return and teach English in this city is possible. I support the ethos The English School and would love to be part of it. I hope you would consider me.

At the moment I work with kids at the department store that I work at, which involves me interacting with a variety of clientele from all over the world. Towards the end of highschool I worked as a private tutor for ESOL Students (English as a Second Language) , which involved me not only teaching them the material but making sure they understood it in their new language. Being an ESOL tutor meant I had to explain things in more that one way to help the student learn the meaning for themselves.

Personality wise, I would consider myself quite easy going, in the sense that I do not get frustrated or angry easily and do not mind sudden changes. I am friendly and love teaching people new things, I am also creative, enthusiastic and always looking for new experiences. Finally, I also have a strong work ethic so I take pride in what I do and always try to achieve the best.

Due to my experience with working in a variety of different environments, e.g. schools, hospitals and shops, I am friendly and approachable person, with an ability to effectively communicate with others and excellent listening skills. I am a fast learner with an eye for detail, who is also great at adapting to new situations and circumstances. I have a TEFL teaching certificate, so I am familiar with a variety of teaching techniques and strategies.

I am a fun, energetic, enthusiastic person! I am outgoing and enthusiastic about languages and have experience with children. I have volunteered at a preschool for several months as well as taught troubled youth at my recent internship before graduating at Boise State University with a major in Social Science this May. I recently received my TEFL Certificate of 120+ hours. I believe language is the key to building ties between people of different cultures and creeds. I am dedicated to not only learning languages, but also to teaching languages to connect others together.

1. I have been an English teacher to elementary and middle school students in South Korea for 1 year.

2. I have worked at a daycare center in America for 5 years as well as worked as a nanny during university.

3. I am currently in training to be a licensed teacher in America for kindergarten.

4. I worked at an elementary school as the media clerk (library), but I also assisted in the classrooms as an aid to the teacher sometimes.

5. I have a bubbly personality, always smiling and trying to make children smile. I'm a very hands-on instructor and like to use games, activities and crafts to assist in learning.

6. Due to my personality and teaching style, I definitely prefer working with younger children in kindergarten instead of older children who don't have much interest.

To Whom It May Concern:

As a working registered professional, I have had a plethora of experience in a range of roles where I have been able to directly impact people's lives. Having held various high pressure roles, I am looking to use my creativity and enthusiasm to be able to advance the learning of others.

I have worked in schools and children's centres teaching children in the past in placement and voluntary positions whilst completing my degree in Leeds, England.

I speak with a clear British English accent and was raised in Durham, one of the top university cities in the UK, which is popular with Korean students.

My interests include reading, football, travelling and cooking. Ideally, I would like to be working long term in a country to be able to settle and progress as an English teacher.

Thank you for considering my CV application.

It is my pleasure to write this precis of my experience and skill set. I am Australian by birth and hold a Bachelor of Arts – Information Management/Librarianship and a Graduate Diploma of Computing. I have in excess of twenty years experience with young adults as the Reference Librarian and as guest lecturer at university in Information Technology and as the Online Courses Administrator. I held the role of librarian each weekend during the school year as well as a full time job in information technology.

I have provided training to colleagues, as well as students. In addition, for many years I have been a Musical Director and music teacher as I have a passion for music. My specialty has been training people aged five years to eighty years to play brass instruments and to polish technique for aspiring career musicians applying for entry into a music conservatorium post secondary or tertiary studies.

For the past few years I have turned my hand to managing homeless shelters for men in Central Australia, this a great number of Aboriginal men were housed in the shelter. I highlight this as the Indigenous peoples of Australia have a different culture and I was successful at being culturally sensitive and at the same time building rapport and respect. In this way, I would do the same in South Korea as I would be just as much a pupil, as the pupils for whom I would teach English.

My wife Jayne and I would like the opportunity to share our passions and love of life and life long learning by living and teaching in South Korea. We have lived much of our lives in Provincial cities and would rather move into less densely populated areas, should we have the opportunity. Jayne has sent her resume under separate cover.

I am a native English speaking British citizen. I am also a native speaker in German and Tamil. I have completed a 168 hour TEFL course recently.

I am passionate about traveling and learning about new cultures. Visiting South Korea last year has inspired me to apply for a teaching position in Korea to pursue my career in teaching as well as learn more about the Korean culture. Over the last 10 years, I have worked with children and young adults in various settings. I enjoy working with students to help them to efficiently learn and look forward to creating exciting and engaging lessons to motivate them.

Past Experience:

2017 – 2018 Engagement Coordinator
Deliver and facilitate high quality, engaging presentations and PSHE sessions to a group of up to 250 students during school assembly in mainstream schools, SEN schools and colleges.

2016 – 2017 Senior Mentor/Assistant Programme Manager
As a Senior mentor, my role was to lead, inspire and pastorally care for a team of up to 12 participants (aged 15-17), ensuring their safety and assisting their personal development through 18 days of intense activities. Work alongside other members of staff to ensure that all young people in the team are engaged and fully participating in all activities. Facilitate and tailor curriculum sessions to the team in an engaging and inspiring way. Lead visits to community partners/charities to deliver social action projects.

2012 – 2013 Trained Volunteer – Victim Support
As a trained volunteer, I provided emotional support to victims of crime on the support line as well as in person. Additional work includes advocating on behalf of victims with other organisations, and working closely with support workers. Trained in Hate Crime, Disability Awareness and Mental Health Awareness.

2011 – present Private Tutor (part-time)
In my spare time I have been tutoring A-level students in Psychology and German to prepare them for their final exams.

2006 – present Tamil Teacher (4 hours every Saturday)
Teach children and young adults (aged 5 – 17) Tamil. This involves teaching them how to speak, listen, read and write the language at various levels ranging from beginner to A-level students.

I am confident in speaking to people one-on-one or to large groups of people, which I believe will help me to be an enthusiastic and effective teacher. My previous work as a swimming instructor, camp group leader and lifeguard has given me plenty of experience interacting with and educating children of all age groups. This experience has given me a foundation of skills in communication and organisation which I hope to build upon by teaching English as a foreign language. Furthermore, my time spent volunteering at a student helpline has given me a deeper understanding of the struggles many students face during their time in education, meaning that I am aware that teachers not only have educational responsibilities, but pastoral responsibilities to their students. With a good balance of energy and empathy, I am confident that I can be a successful teacher to my students and a valuable asset to my employers.
