Good Day,

I have experience in coaching soccer, tutoring and teaching Mathematics and English.

I was amongst the top coaches at the school I coached at and had the best team of the season with only having lost two games in the entire season.

I have also tutored many struggling students in English and Mathematics and have helped them to be on par with what was being learnt at their school or even being able to excel beyond their fellow peers.

I would describe my strengths as being very organized and creative in my approach in identifying what works best for each individual. I am able to find out what works and expand on that to make it more immersive and engaging for the students.

I approach all my teachings in a calm and constructive manner and ensure that there is always a plan set in place for the lesson ahead.

I am highly skilled in Mathematics, Coaching, Film Making, music media production, computer skills and many more which will be stated in my resume.

Overall I am very open to adaptation and evolving to suit the desired needs of the employer.

Thank you for taking this opportunity to consider me as a candidate for an ESL teacher position. As you can see from the attached résumé (which only gives a glimpse of my experience), I have extensive experience as an educator and most specifically as an English teacher. Additionally, I have successfully taught Math, Science, History, and several languages to young students and adults.

In addition to US curricula, I am also familiar with the British, French, and Spanish systems of education. I typically use blended methods of teaching, incorporating technology and E-learning, building on grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Should you require more details, or copies of transcripts, references, etc., I would be more than happy to comply.

Sincerely,

Glenn G, Kane

I am an adventurous and hard-working person who is always willing to learn and improve myself daily. I work well in a team and can also manage my individual responsibilities accordingly. The reason for pursuing a teaching career is so that I can make a positive impact in the growth of the students’ lives as I find joy in helping others reach their goals. My experience working with children stems from my time as a youth leader, freelance tutor and a volunteer worker within my community. From these experiences, I have gained skills such as lesson planning, delivering captivating lessons as well as being able to understand and communicate effectively with students. I believe my skill set will be a great asset to your institution.

Very kind and caring

In terms of teaching experience I have worked as a Programmes Facilitator for a couple of years, this involved delivering therapeutic programmes to groups of various people. This has given me experience in how to engage and adapt a programme whilst adhering to its structure and principles. I am able to maintain professionalism in extremely challenging enviorments. I have a genuine passion for teaching, as well as learning about different cultures and languages, for me it makes sense to combine these to teaching English abroad. In terms of documents, I have my degree certificate apostille, I have my criminal records check which has been sent to receive an apostille. For start dates I would be available as soon as possible.

I am an easy going person, i don't allow many things to affect me. When it comes to my job or the way I live I like to conduct myself in a professional manner but can also be very laid back and relaxed depending on the situation and my surroundings. Very bubbly personality and know when to be serious.

I tend to make friends easily because I try connect with them on their level and very open minded to different cultures. I enjoy learning new things from people and also enjoy sharing some of my life experiences with them. I have also travelled quite a bit so i have a great insight to many cultures and can easily pick languages up and also communicate and enjoy time with the locals.

Due to my work background I have trained and taught people how to work with different systems and can adapt to their level whether its someone younger than me or older, i am very accommodating and make sure people understand before we move onto the next topic to avoid teaching people the wrong things. I can pick new skills and information quickly making it easy for me to teach others how to do the job and making sure I get everything I have to do done and make sure my team is just as successful at the end of the tasks.

I'm quite a nurturing person, so caring for people comes naturally and I enjoy spending time in family orientated environments because you can learn from the way children behave towards their family and towards each other. Understanding and observing people is something i enjoy doing because you can understand people better by watching how they behave in public and how they carry themselves around people.
