I have worked in the corporate sector for many years and therefore I am able to demonstrate professionalism for this role.

I have effective communication skills whereby people like to open up to me as they feel welcome to speak their mind or any issues they are having.

I am very close to my niece and nephews and therefore I have experience teaching life skills to children.

I have been told I am hardworking and I have a bubbly personality which is why I think I would be a great fit for this role.

I would describe myself as a calm, patient, and reliable professional. I love visiting museums, walking on the beach, travel, watching movies and dramas, listening to music, reading and playing board games. I am an English major and hold post-graduate degrees in International Relations and Conflict Management. In addition I hold various other certificates, including a Level 5 Advanced TEFL Diploma, and a Assistant Creche Teacher certificate. I have worked a researcher, project manager, and administrator. Most of my experience is related to the field of peacebuilding and conflict management, and I have taught peer mediation and conflict resolution skills to learners of different age groups, as well as to adults. I am familiar with different teaching methodologies, lesson planning, teaching English one-to-one, Business English, teaching other subjects in English, and English exam preparation.

My current position as a house parent at the FTIFA Football Academy based in Houtbay, Cape Town, underscore my experience working with youth and young adults. My role here includes to ensure students’ safety, supervise, mentor and support their well-being and development. There is a growing interest among South African youth in Asian cultures, as evidenced by the popularity of anime, games, and trends. My own children and their peers are fascinated by Japanese and Korean music, dramas, and languages, reflecting a broader cultural curiosity. This increased interest in South Korea makes me eager to contribute to a mutual exchange of ideas and experiences between our countries. Through teaching in South Korea, I hope to deepen my understanding of Korean culture by engaging directly with students, communities, and educators. This experience will be invaluable as I consider ways to continue fostering South African-Korean relations especially among the youth upon my return home.

My greatest strength as a teacher is my passion for learning and teaching. I truly believe that education is the key to a successful future, and I am committed to helping my students achieve their full potential. I bring enthusiasm and energy to my classroom every day and strive to create a positive and welcoming learning environment. I am always seeking new and innovative teaching strategies and am open to feedback from my colleagues and students. I believe that my passion for teaching and learning inspires my students to love learning as well and to strive for success

I am a highly professional, results-driven TEFL teacher with experience in the development and delivery of language programs to a wide variety of clients encompassing diverse backgrounds, beginners to advanced, from students and migrants to business professionals.

As a teacher and trainer, I have overseen the instruction of over a hundred students and personally trained five instructors. This role demanded the regular creation of learning materials, the teaching of lessons, workshops and intensive courses, the preparation of progress reports and delivery of in-house testing and instructor evaluations.

Enthusiastic and engaging individual with a passion for hands-on learning methodologies. Possessing a diverse background and extensive travel experience, bringing a global perspective to work.

I briefly did some Substitute teaching many years ago but thoroughly enjoyed it and am willing to expand on that experience teaching full time. I am fully trainable and willing to learn all things in order to be successful in this role.

As a new teacher, I am enthusiastic to begin a new adventure in Korea. I am eager to learn about the rich culture, diverse traditions, beliefs, practices and history. In my short time on this planet, I have learnt that I love learning about different cultures and environments. As a South African living and educated in South Africa, I am surrounded by many different cultures and am thus very aware of cultural implications. This is advantageous in a school system as it can aid in teaching practices. I am able to discern how different cultural implications may affect and influence learners when they are in the midst of forming their own unique personalities, perceptions of the world and interactions with others.

I have a passion for English, which I aim to share through teaching. I can easily adapt to the changing world and environment. This will enable me to adapt my methods of teaching to meet each students’ unique needs, as each child’s development and learning processes are different. Learners are still navigating the world around them, and that does not change when they are in a classroom environment. I aim to utilize my Psychology and English degree and TEFL course, in a classroom of learners, in a creative and fun way and enable my students to advance in their knowledge which will open endless opportunities for them in the workplace, in the future.

I have a strong work ethic and good organisational, communication and creative skills. I am interested in people, language, expanding my knowledge and personal growth.

I am a friendly, patient, caring person who loves working with people. I have strong analytical, communication, adaptability and time management skills which I believe make me a great fit for this role.

I have previous experience working in a team and leading training sessions with colleagues, as well as volunteer experience teaching English to students in Indonesia.
