ESL Teachers

I have 5 years of teaching experience, including 3 years in Korea and 2 in the US. I'm a warm and kind teacher. My wife is Korean, so I have a good understanding of Korean culture. I can even speak Korean a bit!

English as a Second Language (ESL) Educator dedicated to delivering high-quality ESL instruction to students of varying ages and ability levels. Motivate and empower students to achieve and exceed their English learning goals.

I'm a hardworking and sociable graduate with both an intuitive grasp of English, being a native speaker, but also have a solid understanding of English in an academic sense, taking both a diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign language and multiple degrees being achieved in English (a BSc in Psychology, and a MSc in Health Psychology).
Having held positions in customer service for over 10 years, and currently holding a role as an investment Helpdesk Consultant has given me the ability to communicate (sometimes complicated) concepts to clients and students in a simple, efficient manner that allows them to learn and understand with ease.
I enjoy travelling, and consider myself adept in adapting to and ingratiating with different cultures. I also enjoy surfing, rugby, and reading- the latter of which I believe will be invaluable when engaging with students, and aiding them in understanding the language (whether this is writing, speaking or reading).

I am a teacher from the UK with 3 years experience teaching English as a second language to young learners in South East Asia (Cambodia), I have spent the last three years studying a BA Hons in Education Studies whilst working with young learners in English pre-schools, helping them to develop their language, literacy and numeracy skills.

I am now looking to further my career in Seoul where I look to work as an English teacher with school aged learners.

My university degree specialised in learning and teaching practice and I have developed a solid understanding of various aspects of learning, teaching, curriculum and assessment which I am looking to utilise in a teaching position. I have a passion for English language teaching and have experience in a variety of effective methods of teaching that focus on enjoyable environments centered around the students.

Education experience in both industry and early education. I began my career as a lead teacher at both a preschool and a daycare. I led and delivered technical education in my role as an operation specialist at a major US financial institution with excellent feedback and results. My education credentials include a bachelor's degree in psychology, TEFL and TESOL teaching accreditation. I am a native English and Arabic speaker – I can adapt and identify with the unique challenges of education. I am passionate about helping people grow through empathy, leadership, creativity and perception. I aim to contribute to a positive working environment where my students, fellow educators and I strive to achieve their full potential.

Dear Hiring Manager,

I hope this message finds you well. I recently came across the teaching role in Sinchon and I'm excited to express my interest in the position. After reviewing my resume, I believe my experience, personality, and skills make me a strong candidate for this opportunity.

In terms of experience, I had the privilege of serving as an AmeriCorps Member, where I received comprehensive training in classroom techniques and teaching. During my time, I successfully designed and implemented a 6-week Chinese language and culture program for elementary school students, helping them improve their skills and cultural awareness. I would love to bring the confidence and empathy I learned in this teaching position to your private academy.

On the personality front, I pride myself on my strong interpersonal skills. As a Resident Advisor at Wake Forest University, I played a vital role in promoting community well-being. I facilitated conflict resolution, enforced university policies, and connected individuals to the necessary campus resources. I also worked in the Global Village living and learning community which prided itself in cultural awareness. Working with the Global Village enhanced my communication skills across cultures. Building positive relationships and effective communication are essential to me in creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment.

When it comes to skills, I have a solid foundation in teaching and lesson planning. My experience as an AmeriCorps Member allowed me to develop engaging and effective lesson plans, with a focus on phonics and literacy. Additionally, I have proficiency in various software and tools, including Workday, Google Analytics, and MS Office. These technical skills enable me to incorporate technology into teaching and administrative tasks, enhancing the learning experience for students.

Overall, I believe my experience as an AmeriCorps Member, Office of Registrar student assistant, and Resident Advisor, combined with my interpersonal skills, cultural awareness, teaching abilities, and technical proficiency, make me a well-rounded and enthusiastic candidate for the teaching role in Seoul.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my qualifications align with your requirements. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need any further information.

Best regards,
