Hello, my name is Jason Stoiber and I am a security professional and former registered nurse from Minnesota, looking forward to using my over fourteen years worth of transferable skills to become an educator and make a difference in the lives of future generations. Education is the key to understanding and influencing humanity and with an aim to leave this world a better place than I found it, I am eager to use my sense of humor and impeccable ability to establish rapport to inspire and support young students. Any of the positions offered by your school would help me achieve this.

I am writing to express my strong interest in a teaching position within your institution. With a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of Central Florida, current certification in English 6–12 and Exceptional Student Education (K–12), and hands-on experience teaching high school students, I am eager to contribute my skills and passion for education in an international setting.
I currently serve as an ESE Teacher at South Lake High School in Florida, where I manage a high school caseload and ensure compliance with all IEP requirements. In this role, I provide targeted math and English remediation through small-group and individualized instruction, collaborate with general education teachers to support inclusive classrooms, and facilitate accommodations across multiple grade levels. I actively participate in IEP development and multidisciplinary team meetings, consistently advocating for student growth and academic success.

Prior to becoming a lead teacher, I worked as a Teacher Assistant in both VE and self-contained ESE classrooms. This experience strengthened my classroom management skills, reinforced my ability to differentiate instruction, and deepened my understanding of supporting students with behavioral, emotional, and developmental needs. These roles have shaped me into a patient, adaptable, and empathetic educator who is committed to meeting students where they are and helping them achieve measurable progress.

In addition to my formal teaching credentials, I have completed a 120-hour TEFL certification, including specialized training in Grammar Instruction, Teaching Young Learners, and Teaching Business English. As a fluent speaker of both English and Spanish, I am confident in my ability to communicate effectively with diverse student populations and foster inclusive learning environments.

I am a disciplined, growth-oriented educator who is passionate about making a meaningful impact in students’ lives. Teaching abroad represents an opportunity for me to both contribute academically and grow culturally, and I am excited about the possibility of bringing my dedication, flexibility, and strong work ethic to your school community.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss how my experience and qualifications align with your institution’s needs. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have experience teaching students across multiple grade levels, where I have developed and delivered engaging student-centered lessons that support language development and academic growth. I am patient and enthusiastic. I build strong relationships with students and create a positive, supportive classroom environment where learners feel confident with language and participating actively. I am skilled in differentiating instruction. I effectively incorporate visuals, real-world connections and collaborative strategies to support English language acquisition.

I excel in social situations and public speaking. I have found friendships in every job I have had and enjoy making my work fun for everyone.

I have a numerous amount of experience in childcare and education. My last place of employment is a preschool where I was a teacher assistant. I am passionate about teaching children. I am patient and caring towards students. I have taught ESL lessons a few years ago at a Japanese school in New York. I helped the Japanese children learn English through nursery songs and reading books to them. I have a strong interest in the culture of South Korea. I have taken Korean language classes briefly in the past and I would like to try to learn the language again through online lessons etc.

My key strengths include clear communication, creativity in planning engaging activities, behaviour support strategies, strong organisational skills, and the ability to support children’s cognitive, emotional, and social development. As a nearly qualified psychology graduate, I have a solid understanding of early childhood development, learning through play, behaviour guidance, and social-emotional growth. I have hands-on experience working in a dementia care home, which has strengthened my patience, empathy, and ability to respond calmly to individual needs. My experience there has helped me further develop my communication skills, emotional awareness, and the ability to build trusting relationships.

I am a graduate of the University of Leeds – I studied (BA) Liberal Arts, this degree programme consisted of interdisicplinary study across Poilitics, Philosophy, Sociology, History, Media etc.

Professionally I have worked in Recruitment, E-Commerce, and most recently a career in the video games industry primarily as a QA Tester.

Alongside this, I have developed technical skills within various programming languages, frameworks, and libraries.

Outside my professional life I am an avid reader, a writer, I play the guitar, remain active; via hiking, attending the gym, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu etc.

I have always wanted to teach English abroad, and after visiting Seoul last year I absolutely fell in with Korea. Currently, alongside my current job, I am in the process of attaining a TEFL qualification.

I am certified to teach English and History at the intermediate and senior levels (Grades 7–12), and I chose these subjects because of their transformative power. Literature, language, and historical inquiry provide students with the tools to question dominant narratives, understand diverse perspectives, and reflect on their own identities within a global context. In my experience, the English and History classroom is often the space where students begin to critically examine media, culture, and social structures that shape their lives—both positively and negatively. The intermediate and senior years are especially formative. Students between the ages of 12 and 18 are developing a sense of self while navigating external pressures, internalized beliefs, and complex global influences. Through thoughtful instruction and modern teaching techniques, I strive to create learning environments where students feel supported, challenged, and empowered to reach their full potential—academically and personally. I am particularly passionate about helping students develop media literacy and critical thinking skills so they can engage thoughtfully with the information they encounter and make informed, value-based decisions. I have not lived abroad before; however, I feel well prepared to move overseas because of my adaptability, openness to new cultures, and strong sense of purpose as an educator. I approach new environments with humility, curiosity, and a willingness to learn, which I believe are essential qualities for living and working in an international setting. My academic and professional background has consistently required me to engage with diverse perspectives, navigate unfamiliar contexts, and reflect critically on my own assumptions. As a teacher, I am accustomed to building relationships across differences, adjusting my practices to meet the needs of varied learners, and learning from the communities I serve. These experiences have prepared me to integrate thoughtfully into a new cultural and professional environment.

I am interested in working in education because of a commitment to developing critical thinkers with a worldwide perspective that deeply aligns with my own philosophy as an educator. I believe education should equip students not only with academic skills, but also with the ability to think critically, engage ethically with the world around them, and grow into compassionate, responsible citizens. With an emphasis on preparing students for success while nurturing them into better citizens, it resonates strongly with my desire to provide students with a positive, meaningful educational experience. Students should not only learn, but they should learn through what they are passionate about to indulge in the academic world. I am focused on setting students on a path to chase excellence so they can achieve the success they want in life, especially during their formative years in lower and higher levels of school (elementary, middle school, high school). I am excited by the opportunity to contribute to a school community that values global awareness, critical inquiry, and holistic student development, and I would be honored to support students as they grow into thoughtful, engaged members of both their local and global communities.

I am intentional about preparing for and engaging with cultural differences in professional settings. When entering a new community, I take time to learn about its values, social norms, and educational context, and I approach this learning with respect, curiosity, and humility. I believe that meaningful work in education requires an openness to perspectives different from one’s own and a willingness to listen, reflect, and adapt. I am committed to honouring local customs and community knowledge while contributing my skills, experiences, and collaborative mindset to the school environment. I view working in a new cultural context not only as a professional opportunity, but also as an important space for personal growth, service, and mutual learning. Encountering cultural differences challenges me to think critically about my own assumptions and strengthens my ability to build inclusive and respectful relationships. While transitioning into a new cultural setting can present challenges, I am confident in my resilience, flexibility, and capacity to adapt. I approach change with a growth mindset and see unfamiliar environments as opportunities to learn alongside students and colleagues. I am motivated by the chance to contribute thoughtfully within diverse communities and to grow both personally and professionally through cross-cultural engagement.

I am a TEFL-certified English teacher with a 200-hour Level 5 qualification and a Bachelor’s degree with honours. I have experience leading and teaching groups through university instruction and professional facilitation roles, which has helped me develop strong classroom management, lesson planning, and communication skills. I am reliable, adaptable, and well-organised, with a calm and professional approach to teaching. I work well both independently and as part of a team and am committed to creating a positive, structured, and engaging learning environment for students.
