I believe that my experience and passion for teaching would be the ideal fit for the type of candidate you are looking for and I would be thrilled at the opportunity to join your team.

I’m a British national who has been living in Seoul for 4.5 years. I have a degree in TESOL with Korean which means I possess both knowledge of how to teach the English language and of Korean culture. I also have a 130 hour TESOL qualification and have 2+ years experience working in Korea. I have taught every age group in Korea from kindergarten until adults and therefore have a thorough understanding of how to adapt teaching methods and materials to various age groups. I have a bright, friendly and patient personality and try to instil confidence first in my students as i believe self confidence is of the greatest importance when learning a foreign language. Having learned multiple languages myself i understand what it’s like to be in the shoes of a learner which helps me to better devise effective methods of language learning.

I am currently working in Digital Marketing, however after almost four years in the field, I have learnt that I would prefer to work in a position that is much more interpersonal, and people focussed. I have decided to pursue teaching because I had a very positive experience of education myself, so a career in education has always appealed to me. With my own academic background (Bachelors in English and Masters in Communication & Entrepreneurship), I feel as though I am well suited to teaching English.

Though I plan to change my career path, my current job had provided me with a great set of transferable skills. These include excellent verbal and written communication, creativity, problem solving, organisation, time management and management of a demanding workload. All of these skills would be essential in a teaching job.

I also have experience with children, including childminding and mentoring children in an after school homework club therefore I know that I enjoy working with and being around children as I am an energetic, enthusiastic and fun person. I am also highly empathetic, a good listener and patient which would all be crucial skills to have as a good teacher.

I was born and raised in London, United Kingdom and I have a Bachelor's Honors Degree in Magazine Journalism and Feature Writing. I have a TEFL/TESOL certificate to teach English as a foreign language. In my own time I run a travel blog and YouTube channel and I have published an E book on Amazon.

As for my experience, I have recently obtained the certificate last year and I am currently teaching Japanese students online as an English tutor on the platform Native Camp. I have years of experience working as a journalist, freelance writer and in customer service.

I am someone who is always enthusiastic, I have a positive mindest and I love to socialize. I am hard working, highly organized and I always meet my deadlines on time. I can easily adapt and learn new skills, and I like to think outside the box.

As a graduate from the University of California, Irvine with a Bachelor of Social Sciences in
Sociology and currently working as a Research Data Coordinator for UC Irvine Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, I highly look forward to working as an English Instructor.

Currently, I work as a Research Data Coordinator where I provide comprehensive data management for a research portfolio of Phase I-IV cancer-related protocols, provide accurate collection and coordination of data submission to study sponsors, assist the principal investigators and study coordinators for all data management aspects of cancer-related trials, and communicate with multi-level networks. Even though I do not work with the patients directly, I take pride in making a difference in the lives of others by working behind the scenes with the team members to help the Cancer Center operate.

Before I worked at the Cancer Center, I worked as a Customer Relations agent at Asiana Airlines. As a customer relations agent, I recorded and responded to customers’ compliments, inquiries, suggestions, and complaints registered through the online customer service feedback system and agencies. By working at Asiana Airlines, I learned about the importance of customer service and learned how to adjust to the company culture.

In addition, I have experience working at a nonprofit organization called Project Kinship where I mentored high school students living in underprivileged populations by conducting self-governed tutor sessions every week. As an academic tutor, I learned how to prepare the class and teach the students effectively on their academic standing.

Through the various work experiences, I realized is that I am happiest when I help and see people grow. Therefore, with the knowledge and skills I gained, I want to make a meaningful contribution to help learners in Korea achieve their educational goals.

I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing back from you soon.
