ESL Teachers

I am a very bubbly and charismatic individual. I have a huge personality and enjoy any activity that allows me to release my energy and flourish. Working with children is a passion of mine and I thrive off helping and watching others learn and grow.
I have travelled extensively throughout my life and love learning about new cultures and meeting new people. I am a big “foodie”, I enjoy good food and always eager to try new things. Music and dance play a huge role in my life and I am always incorporating it in my everyday life and activities. In addition, I enjoy staying fit by hiking, working out and group activities.

I am a kind, patient and positive person who loves working as part of a team and has a passion for teaching English and traveling. I have three years teaching experience in China and would love to teach again in Asia. I love teaching young kids and making school a fun learning environment. I’m experienced and calm in a teaching environment but would love to gain more experience and learn more myself.

I am an adaptable and quick learner who is hardworking and equipped to handle any challenges that may arise. I am good at dynamic problem-solving and try to view things with an eye for quality while still ensuring that the multifaceted nature of the tasks at hand are taken into account. I have worked diligently in various customer service and education roles that have garnered a wide range of skills including great communication abilities and mastery of time management. I am one who is friendly, with a cooperative and team-focused demeanor that is always ready for a new challenge. This has translated well into my work and allowed me to grow as an employee and a person. From previous experience, I have skills in various cloud technologies and office programs such as Microsoft Office, Salesforce CRM, Tencent teaching platforms, and social media. I am also adept and experienced at lesson planning, event organizing, and parent-teacher communication and training.

Taking a position as an undergraduate teaching assistant is what started and fueled my desire to join the field of education. This was further solidified and validated in my work as an ESL teacher for young and mid learners. It is through this line of work that I have discovered my love of languages, education, and seeing students grow and succeed in areas they never thought they could. This is a path I am excited to contribute to, enhance, and explore within South Korea.

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to express my interest in an ESL job in South Korea that I've seen advertised on your website.

To introduce myself, I’m a French & Italian BA graduate of The University of Manchester in the UK. I most recently worked in technology sales in London, though I’m looking for a career change from August 2021.

I hold an 120 hour TEFL qualification, and in the past have completed numerous placements at primary schools in the UK where I taught a variety of subjects to children aged 4-9, often with a focus on children who require slightly more aid in the classroom.

Training and teaching have also formed key parts of my professional experience in both the military and sales, so again I’m confident of my capability to teach. On top of this, excelling in technology sales and the Royal Navy demonstrates my consistency as a top performer, communicator, hard-worker, team player and leader, and key contributor inside and outside the immediate job description. I can provide references on request to speak to this as well.

On a more personal note, languages have always been a hobby of mine, hence my degree in French & Italian. I've spent a lot of time in classrooms as a student being taught languages, and therefore I have a strong understanding of what works well in different settings, what doesn't, and how different students respond to different methods.

Something else to note: I've been teaching myself Korean for the last two years in my free time, and particularly since lockdown hit, I’ve been able to make great strides with this. Whilst I’m not fully competent in speaking at the moment due to lack of people to practice with, I can read, write and understand to a good standard, though I’m learning more everyday.

I believe I've also already acquired the documents necessary for the E2 Visa: the apostile stamped degree certificate and criminal background check.

I visited South Korea in Summer 2019 on holiday, and I’m keen to return ASAP. Having lived in both France & Italy during my studies, I have experience in adapting to a new culture, new language and new surroundings far from home, and I'm ready for South Korea to be my next move.

I'm highly organised, ambitious and enthusiastic, and this programme stands out as something I would love to be involved in.

Thanks in advance for your consideration,

Alexandra Saunders

Even though I don't have formal teaching experience, I have extensive tutoring experience. I have tutored philosophy at Rhodes university from 2017 to 2020. I have tutored English to a group of fourteen year-old students in 2016. I've also facilitated an ethics course for sixteen year-old students in 2018. Currently finishing my Masters in Philosophy and pursuing a TESOL.

1. Patient, caring and kind personality having the understanding, compassion and sensitivity to student differences.
2. I am trustworthy and very reliable person and would always give my very best in any career that I wish to pursue.

4. I am a committed individual who is able to adapt quickly to changing environments with efficiency. I show my dedication through my strengths and abilities to try my very best to complete any tasks given to me to the highest standard.

I have a passion for teaching and education. I believe that learning should be fun! I love singing, dancing, art, and crafts – I always try to incorporate these in my lessons.
I have experience teaching English online, in a training/learning center and in a Kindergarten. I taught young learners between the ages of 2 and 10, where I did lesson planning, content creation, engaging students in play-based learning, classroom management, parent communication, tracking student progress, tests and maintaining individual student portfolios. With recent focus on 2–3-year-old students.
My teaching style is small group play based, to maximize learning and engagement. I communicate well and have received good feedback from my colleagues and all parents (parents were given the opportunity to observe my classes).
I work well and get along with all campus staff in achieving an objective, on time and with excellence. I believe communication is the foundation of success and growth. I am confident, dedicated, willing and a fast learner.

Hello, I love teaching kids and watching them grow into well-spoken students. I have two years of teaching experience in China.

My hobbies include soccer, rugby, and cycling. in my spare time, I enjoy travelling and experiencing new things.

I have a lot of patience with my students and have a unique teaching style.

I am passionate about helping others learn. During my time at The University of Birmingham, I had the opportunity to tutor and help students with their essay writing skills and I also led study sessions with my peers. This gave me confidence with speaking in large groups which later helped me when it came to presenting projects in the classroom.

During my time at Northampton University I studied Law and as a result, I was able to develop my organisational skills as I had to prepare for 5 different lectures and study groups everyday on a weekly basis. Whilst studying I also worked at H&M where I was a Department Manager. I had to work efficiently and manage a team of around 30+ staff, delegating roles and organising my department during each shift.

Once I had finished my studies I began working for HMCTS at Northampton County Court. During my time there I have grown further in confidence and my communication skills with the people i work with as well as the general public has improved. I aim to give a warm reception to everyone I meet and always maintain a positive and respectful attitude in the workplace.

I enjoy working with kids and can effectively communicate and teach things in ways that they can understand. I am also very confident in my English, from grammar to reading and writing.
Additionally, although I am not fluent in Korean, I recently studied abroad at Korea University in 2020 so I am familiar with the culture and customs.
