I originally become interested in teaching when I was in college with the goal of becoming an ESL teacher. I started my career in a sales position and progressed to more ‘hands on’ educational and serviceable roles supporting sellers within my organization. However, I have always found myself volunteering with children in and out of classrooms through various programs. I’ve helped teach classrooms of children, mentored high schoolers and taught kindergarteners through my church’s Sunday school program. I am certain my business and volunteer experience will provide a unique professional, structured and playful environment conducive to effective learning with students.

As a teacher of English as a Second Language, I will provide a motivational, structured and fun environment with meaningful language learning that is able to address the strengths and weaknesses of each student.

I have recently graduated university with a Bachelor of Science (Hons) degree and a 150-hour TEFL qualification.

During my time at university, I believe that I have developed strong communication skills, both on an individual basis and as a team player, through many presentations and events that I took part in. Through my university assignments I have learnt to have good time management skills and good knowledge of written and spoken English. I am computer literate with a variety of different software. I have the abilities to work independently and in a group setting.

Throughout my time at university I held a few different employment roles, which have helped to build my confidence. These roles have been customer facing so were variable and unpredictable. Having to problem solve any issues, as well as making sure that I completed all the tasks for the day. Time management skills and being punctual were a very important part of theses roles.

For the past two years, I have been volunteering with a local Girlguiding UK Brownie group with children aged 6 – 11. I work closely with the leader to plan and run all the weekly activities, incorporating the general programme set by the organisation. Working with this age group has really boosted my ability and confidence to deal with any situation that presents and thinking on my feet, as activities with this age group, often do not go to plan.

I believe that with these combined skills and experiences, I would provide a positive contribution to your school.

I am an energetic, friendly and motivated individual who enjoys sharing her knowledge with others.

I don't have much experience in the teaching industry, however I did spend a week as a teaching assistant in a primary school in the UK in 2013. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and have since been interested in pursuing this.

I believe that some of my skills would be well suited to your company.

Creating a new planner is a new experience for me, however, after completing my certification I can create effective teaching planners that will cater to students of every English proficiency level. I have received my 120 Hours TESOL certification from The International Open Academy, founded in Dublin, Ireland. As an ESL teacher, I can select certain materials that would be beneficial to the student and help correct issues that they struggle with.

As a full-time student and an English major, I have been able to create many detailed and thorough essays, creative writing, presentations, and powerpoints that have helped me to be able to organize my work and closely read what the underlying themes of the essay are. I would harness the same skills in my teaching to identify learning material, organize them in my teaching planner, and effectively use it in the classroom.

I have been on the Equestrian team at Wesleyan College for 3 years and learned the essentials for being a team player, identifying nonverbal communication, and using verbal communication. These skills are important in order to be able to work as a team for your company and have effective team building. I am good at working under pressure and the ability to interact with many different people.

As requested I have attached a copy of my résumé. I look forward to hearing from you and I am very appreciative for this job opportunity. Thank you for your consideration.
