ESL Teachers

I am well spoken, energetic and extremely resourceful. My experience ranges from teaching kindergartners aged 4-5 to middle schoolers. I have advance skills in classroom and behavior management, I have dozens of fun interactive English games and I am well versed in curriculum and test construction based on student needs.

I have a TEFL and Teaching Knowledge certificates from Cambridge University that helped improve my teaching practices and techniques. Coupled with my Honors and Bachelors degree I am a force to be reckoned with in the classroom.

I am able to juggle multiple responsibilities from administration, teaching and teacher training if need be and i am extremely eager and versatile.

Im passionate about teaching and love children. I was currently working at a communications company that is international and i was dealing with international customer queries. I have experience with children from raising my own and being a Sunday school teacher at church. I have a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and Law and a TEFL certification. I have a bubbly personality and love going out and exploring.

I would say that my strengths are in my ability to change and adapt to new situations around me. I care deeply about all my students, so when I recognize one of my students is struggling I help build a new approach that may help them better understand. When working with children, understanding that each one of them is different and may need a different approach is vital to make sure everyone can learn and grow no matter their learning style.

I feel another one of my strengths is my ability to build creative and engaging lesson plans and activities for my young learners. Kids have a lot going on and sometimes a short attention span, making sure that what we do in the classroom gets everyone engaged and ready to learn is important.

My final major strength that I want to highlight here would be that I am a team player. I work well with others no matter if they are coworker, boss, or client. I always make an effort to not only get to know everyone but also figure out ways to make sure we all work well together.

I am dedicated to helping children learn and I’m hopeful that my love of helping others will make me a perfect candidate for your school.

I'm flexible, kind and professional. I enjoy teaching ESL to children, I find it to be very rewarding. I've been teaching ESL in Korea for 3 years now.

I have four years experience working as a Foreign Language English Teacher in Romania, working in the Brasov area during 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. During my time within this position, I was responsible for the planning and undertaking of English classes for children of all ages (8-18), as well as the planning and supervision of other, non-English related activities such as crafts, sports and performing arts. This role allowed me to use my outgoing personality to make a real difference in the lives of children who were learning English for use in their futures. My experiences in Romania allowed me to develop a skillset including, but not limited to, clear communication, timekeeping, initiative and problem solving. I believe that these skills would make me a great candidate for a role teaching English as a foreign language in Korea.

I also have 18 months experience as an online English Tutor. During this period I used online platforms to teach English to both foreign and domestic English students. This role was a way of furthering and improving on the skills that I acquired in Romania, as well as allowing me to utilise my proficiency in technology as a teaching tool. This role was key in allowing me to develop the skill of adaptability, ensuring that, despite the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the students were still able to receive top-tier English classes which were open and convenient to both them and myself.

On a personal note, I am a friendly, outgoing person who is always willing to put himself out there for all kinds of opportunities. I hope that in Korea I can continue to do this and have a real impact on the lives of those who I can assist in their English studies.

I'm a well disciplined teacher with enthusiasm and a good team player. I love children, I love being around children. The smiles kids display is so priceless. It just makes my heart so happy. I love igniting the spark of curiousity in children. I'm a flexible and socialible teacher. I'm patient and I have a positive mindset towards learning.

I completed my Bachelor's degree in Sociology in 2020 and went on to complete a 120-hour TEFL course shortly after. I have always wanted to work with children and during my time in school I completed a weeks work experience at my local primary school, assisting teachers in their classrooms. It was here that I gained my understanding of why people choose to teach; simple tasks such as encouraging a child to tackle a hard word in a book they're reading can have the biggest impact, and there is nothing like seeing the look of accomplishment on a child face once they get it right. I feel that my passion for helping others, taking on new challenges and the skills I have acquired whilst completing my degree and TEFL course make me the ideal candidate for this role.

I believe that I have a good combination of skills and experience that will ensure that I will succeed at teaching English as a foreign language. I believe that I will be an asset to any classroom. I recently completed a 120-hour TEFL qualification alongside my bachelor's undergraduate degree. I studied anthropology, which allowed me to develop my interest in different cultures, and appreciate cultures different from my own British upbringing. This has allowed me to become more open minded, and passionate about various cultures and traditions, which is why I believe that I will flourish as a teacher in South Korea.

I am enthusiastic, outgoing, and confident in my abilities. I work well in a team, but also thrive on my own, organising activities that ensure that the children receive the best education. I have previous experience working with kindergarten age children (3-5 years old), and I enjoy facilitating their growth and understanding of a topic. I worked with these young children as a play facilitator in a nursery, where I assisted in running activities and free play time for the children to explore and contribute to their own education. I believe strongly that younger children have incredible minds which can be guided, to ensure that the children grow to their fullest potential.

During my secondary education, I was a prefect and mentor to younger students, and organised one-on-one literacy tutoring, with students that needed more assistance with their reading and speaking skills; I believe that this experience will lend itself well to teaching English to students, as I already have experience surrounding tutoring in the English language, alongside the certified 120-hour TEFL qualification. I am patient, and care about the development of each child, and I believe strongly in ensuring a good education for all children.

Since graduating from university with a second-class bachelor of science degree, I have been living and working in Liverpool, a city that is known as the culture capitol of the United Kingdom. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people and talking to them, understanding their lives and being able to connect on a human level, and share experiences and cultures. This is the reason why I strongly wish to teach English in South Korea. I am so excited at the prospect of immersing myself in the culture, and experiencing all that South Korea can offer, from rich cultural traditions, to beautiful landscapes and delicious food!

As a person, I believe that I have a wide range of experience in both academia and in a professional capacity. Having completed a degree in psychology with honours, I have learnt a lot about different cultures as well as human behaviour. In my final year, I conducted my own piece of research which involved collecting, analysing and compiling data into a final research project which demanded good time management and work discipline.

As well as my degree, I believe I have an outstanding mix of work experience which will aid me well as a teacher in Korea! I have worked as a special needs camp counsellor in the United States for 3 months, which involved not only running camp activities but also physical and emotional care work for both children and adults. We had a mix of people with physical and mental special needs throughout the summer, with a weekly turnaround of campers. During the summer, I worked in a team of 5 counsellors and have learnt valuable teamwork skills. I also took part in a leadership course at the start of the summer to return as a unit leader for my cabin, which gave me excellent evaluative and assessment skills.
This was a challenging job, as well as being in another country for a significant amount of time and has given me valuable experiences that will aid me in all walks of life. I am certain that I can bring what I have learnt at camp to the classroom and encourage creative ways of learning!

I have also worked as a sales associate part-time for the last 2.5 years at Superdry in the centre of Liverpool, and more recently also joined the LEGO store part time for the last 6 months. Working full-time hours over two jobs has been challenging but has granted me with good time management. I have gained more experience from engaging with both children and adults in both clothing and toy retail, and with the experience I had as a camp counsellor, I believe can make me a well-rounded English teacher.

Personality wise, I am very open minded with a passion for learning about other cultures and experiences! I have a varied number of hobbies including outdoor rock climbing, computer programming, football and playing the guitar. I would love to live and work in Korea, with not just teaching others but also learning about Korean culture and tradition myself.

I am very passionate about education and working with children. Teaching is a career that I stumbled upon but found great enjoyment and growth. I am super inquisitive and always go above the call of duty which is how I became head teacher and mentor at my previous school. I am also very patient as I feel to be an educator you need to have this personality trait in order for students to not fear you and feel comfortable.
