I am a highly educated young person from South Africa, looking for a new experience abroad. I recently graduated from university and I would love to come teach in South Korea. I have a Bachelors degree as well as a Post-graduate degree in Bcom Financial Planning.

I am extremely good with people and adapt very easily into a new environment. My strengths are that I am overly enthusiastic and friendly, and also work very well with children. I use to be a qualified life guard and surf instructor, so working with children comes very naturally to me. I am very passionate about learning children new things.

I am use to working hard as I paid my way through varsity so I will always give it my all and do what is expected of me. My schooling was in English so the language is definitely not a problem to me.

I am VERY excited to start teaching in South Korea!!!

I am very personable thanks in large part to many leadership positions I have had stemming from High School. I was Student Body President, President of the French Club, involved in sports, I was on a 2 year service mission in Korea and met and taught amazing people during my time there. Because of my experience living abroad, leading other people, and teaching as a Teacher's Assistant, I know that I have very desirable skills that will benefit the students who I am over.

I am a citizen of the United States with a Bachelor's Degree as well as a 120 hour TEFL certificate. I have my necessary E2 documents (apostilled diploma & background check) ready.

I believe I would be a good teacher because I'm a responsible professional who knows how to be nice and patient when someone is struggling with a language. I would be sure to correct mistakes in a polite way that makes sure they're still willing to keep at it.

I have been living and working in Iksan, South Korea as an English teacher for the past seven years. I have worked in both public elementary/middle schools and private hagwons. I think working in all different types of schools has helped to make me a well balanced teacher who is patient, hard working and creative when producing and presenting lessons. I have worked with students from age 6-19 and I have learned a lot about tweaking a lesson plan to suit different types or ages of students.

I am a qualified Teacher of English as a Foreign Language with many years of experience working in Korean and Japanese schools and academies as a native English Teacher. I have worked with kindergarten, elementary, middle-school and adult students. I am comfortable working in front of a class, and of tutoring students one-on-one. I am determined to develop my teaching skills further, and of learning new teaching methods for use in the classroom. I seek new challenges and greater responsibilities in my teaching career.

Experience: I tutored English to university students. I have developed Economic content for tests, assignments, and exams for college students. I have also taught dance to kids from the age of 6 – 18, and adults.

Personality: I am friendly, approachable, optimistic, patient and energetic.

Skills: I have studied overseas which has extended my horizons and enabled me to adapt to almost any environment. I am a quick learner and enjoy immersing myself in different cultures.
