I am 26 years old and I currently hold a Bachelors degree majoring in English and Psychology. In addition, I recently completed my Masters in Psychology (with a focus in child development) along with a TEFL certificate.

I knew that after completing my studies I wanted to pursue a career that would not only allow me to work with children but also initiate change in their lives. As such, my desire to change the lives of children inspired me to use my passion into a real purpose.

I started looking for places where I could volunteer while I was studying and this is when I came across the Iqanga Organisation. This organisation is an organisation that seeks to create a healthy school environment for children in disadvantaged areas in rural Eastern Cape. During my time there I helped prepare children for their exams. It was thus through my interaction with these children that I began to realise a new passion emerging through my interaction with these children, teaching. I have also had tutoring experience. This experience helped me to not only understand the challenges of teaching but the rewards of teaching as well.

As such, I feel that I would make a great teacher not only because of my brief experience around teaching children but because of my overall passion for children and their well-being. I am a very patient, kind and enthusiastic individual

I am Hlezi 흘레지 – I currently hold a Bachelor of Communications from the University of the Sunshine Coast in Australia. Upon completing university, I chose to work in the tertiary space for South Africa's top private institution a student advisor. The position entailed assisting students and parents with the decision making process when it comes to university pathways alongside marketing and communications for the institution.

I am a people person – I love seeing people reach their potential and I am passionate about education. My love for being in the classroom is the reason I have decided to pursue a career where I can give back to society and wake up every day loving what I do. I am a go-getter with an enthusiasm to achieve any goal or challenge I may have.

Growing up I was a sportswoman having represented South Africa in Aquatics and my province in track and field. Discipline and teamwork has been instilled in everything I do – I am proactive to challenges, I am compassionate towards others and have the ability to motivate most people I come to meet.

My strengths, personality and skill set is the single reason I have found my fit in teaching.

To begin with, I have 7 years of English education experience altogether. Moreover, I have a TESOL degree, so I am highly informed on how to teach first language and especially ESL students. I chose to get a teaching degree but it is my passion and joy to see others enjoy learning. I am very organized and creative. At my current job in Korea, I have had to make so much supplementary materials and a lot of them I made from scratch myself. I am very loving towards students but can also give a healthy and appropriate amount of discipline by showing students what they did right or wrong. I hope I am the right person for this job.
