I believe in giving back to the world and I find this as an opportunity to make a difference, and work with people from other parts of the world to nurture others and change the lives of students. I want to enhance and leverage a career in teaching and hone other relevant skills as well. My dream is to get and have more hands on experiences, where I can be well adept at teaching, bringing in solutions and innovative ideas into the world,experience new ideas, from other places and people from different backgrounds

I have always loved learning and have always wanted to teach. I enjoyed studying for a Law degree and for the Legal Practice Course where I obtained a distinction. During my education, I have found that education is an important factor in helping to achieve social justice and I am very much interested in helping students to learn in a positive and supportive environment; I feel that this will be beneficial for them and will help to lay the foundations for a successful life, academically, professionally and socially by helping to make them more well informed and engaged members of society.

At GCSE and A – Level, I enjoyed helping other students and would often encourage them to complete their work and to revise for examinations. I achieved two A’s and a B at A-Level and was mentioned in the local newspaper and the college prospectus. I would like the opportunity to inspire young people, to teach them to love learning and to develop a positive attitude that will help them to overcome the fear of failure, for example in my first year at college I sat one of the modules for an exam early and was awarded a C grade by the end of the year I had achieved almost all A grades. I really want to encourage students from all backgrounds to ‘never give up,’ as my father always encouraged me to do.

During my first term at university, I volunteered one day a week at the Redbridge Refugee Forum and became aware of the challenges that refugee families face not just with acquiring a new language but with obtaining food, adequate shelter and other financial support which could have an adverse impact on their education. My volunteering experience reminded me of the difficulties that young people from disadvantaged backgrounds faced when learning and helped me to observe the importance of managing class time efficiently to make sure each student was provided with support in the classroom and to tailor the provision of information to accommodate different learning styles to different young people where possible.

I have worked as a Switchboard Operator and Receptionist during the day and night shifts at two hotels and have learnt to successfully work with people from different backgrounds and this has helped me to develop excellent communication skills. I have worked as a Commercial Litigation Paralegal and as a Business Support Officer, for the Children’s Social Services department, in the youth centre and office, as a result, I have resolved to provide young people with the same great educational experience I was given.

I am a CELTA and TEFL certified ESL/EAP teacher from the UK with over six years of experience. I am currently teaching at Canvard College University of Business and Technology in Beijing, China, and will finish my contract by teaching at the University of Plymouth, UK.

My current role of Pre-Sessional Academic English Tutor at Canvard University of Business and Technology in China, (and later, University of Plymouth in the UK) has allowed me to refine my skills as an English instructor to a more professional level. Teaching in a university environment has been an extremely rewarding job with its own unique challenges that I have enjoyed every second of.

 With my experience, confidence, certification, creativity and enthusiastic personality, I know for a fact that I can actively contribute to the reputation of any school.

Hello! I am a very bright, bubbly and lovable girl. I have a plethora of experience working with international students and have a little experience teaching mainly elementary grade students from church and also in a real classroom. I have created short lesson plans and have managed to create a fun, safe learning environment as well as having control over classroom management. I have lived in South Korea for a few months as an exchange student in Korea University so I have already become a bit used to South Korea and have a love for South Korea.

My name is Tifffany Nguyen. I graduated from Newman University with a degree in Psychology. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese. The experiences of working with students and the interest in Korea's cultures have motivated and challenged me to apply for teaching English in Korea.

In high school, I joined Korean Fan Dance club to help at fundraising events for local churches and perform at the annual Asian Festival. Practicing with Hanbok, I was amazed and became curious about the Korean culture, food, and history. Throughout the years, I participated in Big Brother Big Sister program to assist middle school students with homework and after school's activities. In the summer of 2013 to 2015, I worked as a Tutor Counselor for Upward Bound Wichita Preparation program at Wichita State University to provide support and guidance for high school students preparing for college. Since 2016, I became a Vietnamese instructor to help elementary students at church improve and practice the Vietnamese language. The excitement of seeing them learn motivates me to teach better. I enjoy working with children and hope to have an opportunity to contribute my passion as an English teacher in Korea.
