Hello. My name is Neil. In terms of experience I have 15 years of work experience. This was gained in a career as a lawyer. However I am seeking to transition into education and use the skills I have acquired to enrich the lives of children. I am very determined and would do anything to succeed in this role. I would hope to do this by being very patient and approachable whilst recognising that all
Children learn at different rates and some may therefore require more care and assistance to get ahead. I like to listen and encourage others to talk only interjecting at appropriate points. I hope this is what you would be looking for and would love to hear from you.

I have been writing and reading English at an advanced level for a long time. I graduated with a Medieval History degree which involves rigorous research with dense texts and extrapolating in order to craft a clear, concise essay. Additionally, I really enjoy working with kids and teaching. Teaching is a natural evolution of my degree and this is an opportunity I am very excited to explore. In past years I have also taken time to teach kids how to play chess and having patience is one of my greatest strengths. Lastly, I am looking forward to exploring and learning about new cultures! I will be learning just as much as the kids I will be teaching and this greatly excites me!

My name is Jeremy, I am a young, passionate, fun-loving English Teacher from America.

I have taught english in Italy and Costa Rica as well as college anatomy and physiology, kinesiology, and CHS 101 college introductory through Arizona State university as a student teacher. Additionally I coached swimming through Scottsdale Aquatics Club for 4 years working with the fastest 12-15 year olds in the state.

By trade and by nature, I am a storyteller. The human capacity for learning through the art of storytelling is both as old as time and yet remains timeless. I value both expressionism and language as I believe that both are critical measures of our ability as human beings to interact and evolve. I am a fully qualified TEFL instructor and hope to leverage off of this, so as to enable as many students as possible to present their stories to as wide an audience as possible.

As of 2018, I have been employed as a management consultant within the learning and development industry. As a result, I have come to specialize in the design, development and delivery of highly effective and targeted learning solutions, spanning across a diverse demographic. Each undertaking had demanded that I not only design an experience that is immersive, but so too one that is appropriate considering the audience in question. Consequently, I have had extensive experience when designing lessons and content that caters to a variety of learning styles, academic and linguistic levels, contrasting cultures and age brackets. Further, my position had demanded that I maintain an effective interpersonal relationship with several stakeholders, meaning that my ability to adjust and acclimatize to contrasting conditions and social groups has been sharpened and should hold me in good stead considering the nature of this industry.

Further, I have subsequently been employed by ICEV and have had first-hand experience in educating students ranging from the ages of 6-12 years old. I have been entrusted with the development and implementation of some of the curriculum that had been taught across the entire institution and had been expected to develop my own independent lesson plans, content and activities

I am a History graduate and currently a Masters student studying Politics and Economics in London, I really enjoy being able to study current affairs as well as making the most of my own intellectual experience in such tough times. I have worked in a kids summer camp in the UK, Barracudas, I was intending to take on a third season but it was naturally interrupted due to COVID. It was a fantastic experience and my task was to set a daily timetable of activities for kids aged 6-14, striking the right balance between fun and informative games – such as splat but placing the emphasis on team work and creativity. I also looked after, and catered for, special educational needs children – learning how to become a better, and more well-rounded, instructor.

All details included in my CV.

I have worked with a wide range of children in the past in both direct leadership and auxiliary roles. I was the president of my Venture Crew through the Boy Scouts of America where I would lead meetings and serve as an example for many years to younger scouts in high school. I have also volunteered at various Scouting events where I helped manage various small group activities for school-age children. I have also worked as a camp councilor for Camp Invention, both leading children and assisting teachers in getting children engaged in STEM-related activities. In terms of direct language teaching experience, I was the vice president of the Korean Language and Culture Club in university where I would create short and basic grammar lessons and present them to teach the club. I also would work with my peers in both high school and college to help unofficially tutor them in wide range of classes. Overall, I have a wide background in terms of both leading a range of ages in group settings and teaching different subjects.
I am a very approachable person, so people tend to feel comfortable asking me for help. I also have a very calm personality, so I tend to be able to stay level-headed and adaptable in most situations. I am a creative person, so I can think of many different ways to create lessons to keep children engaged in learning, and I am very curious myself, so I work to inspire curiosity and the drive to learn in others.
My skills include use of technology, so I can easily integrate it into lesson, and language acquisition skills. I have studied to varying degrees Spanish, French, and Japanese, and I have done very well in all my language classes. Having a very strong foundation for language learning oneself is important to be able to teach others language, even if its one’s native language. I work to have clear communication with anyone I meet. I take the initiative in most things that I decide to do, and I have developed critical thinking skills through-out my college career as a STEM major.

I have worked for several years part time and both a babysitter and an au pair for local families in my town in the UK. Additionally, during my time at school I volunteered with local refugee children to help them with their homework. This experience, along with my friendly and outgoing personality, has enhanced my skills working with children and helping them to grow and learn as individuals. Throughout this last year at university, I have volunteered through a society helping local adult refugees to improve their English skills. This has given me valuable experience to put my TEFL qualification into practice. I am a very patient and dedicated individual and would love the opportunity to help young children with their English skills. I have always been very driven and motivated to continue my own learning experience, and this enthusiasm is reflected in my desire to help others get excited about learning too.
