ESL Teachers

●I am a skilled and enthusiastic English Language Teacher/tutor with 2 years of experience developing lesson plans and curriculum for students young and in their adolescence stage, online and in physical classrooms.

●I'm equipped with the Communicative Teaching Method. I apply this method in the classroom through interactive, student-centered activities that maximize “student talk time”.

● My strongest skills are that I am an empath who is skilled in verbal and nonverbal communication, especially when meeting people for the first time. I generally have calm and engaging energy, which makes me easy to talk to (with kids especially), and I easily adapt to new environments due to my curious and open minded approach to different cultures.

●Lastly, I have huge passion for working with children as I spend most of my time engaging with children from different backgrounds volunteering in doing self improvement activities with the children at the local community centre.

I am a career educator; this is what I do!

I am a self-motivated, enthusiastic, patient, culturally aware, and passionate teacher with good communication skills. I can work well both in a team setting and on my own initiative. I am
dedicated to promoting learner development and assisting students in achieving their educational objectives.

I am a well educated, well spoken and extremely adaptive young graduate with a bachelors and a masters degree. I have spent five years in education to improve myself and reach new levels in my life and make myself the best, most educated and highest achieving person. I have a massive desire to become an excellent EFL teacher and leave the UK to explore the world and perhaps, in the long run, call a new place home.

I am a happy person who always looks at the bright side and is grateful for everything in this life. I am ready to work hard and commit myself to a new endeavour. In terms of my personality, I am someone who is always happy, I am patient, friendly and very kind, yet I am always aware of my surroundings and analyse and adapt well. I respect everyone regardless of what background they come from, regardless of commonalities or differences and love to learn about new cultures. I have a huge interest in learning new languages as well so I can be comfortable wherever I go.

My skills are that I am extremely adaptive, I am a quick learner and when I apply myself to something, I do it with passion and dedication. One strong trait of mine is that I am a huge fan of feedback and being shown my mistakes as I know this will allow me to improve and become the best. I pick up languages very well and seem to be able to accustom myself very well, which is always beneficial when moving abroad.

I do not have experience in teaching, but once I am given the opportunity to start, I will excel and I will dedicate myself to becoming a proficient, capable and respected teacher.

With a recently acquired Master's degree in Classics, I am eager to bring my passion for education and cross- cultural exchange to South Korea.
During my academic journey, I developed strong communication skills, a keen understanding of linguistic nuances, and a deep appreciation for fostering a collaborative and inclusive learning environment. My academic background has equipped me with the ability to connect with diverse audiences, making me well-suited for a role that requires effective communication, such as teaching English in a foreign context.
As a recent graduate, I am excited about the prospect of immersing myself in the vibrant culture of South Korea while contributing to the educational experience of students. This cross-cultural program aligns with my own dedication to fostering a love for learning and promoting cultural exchange. My dedication to education, coupled with my adaptability and enthusiasm, positions me as a strong candidate for the English teaching position. I am confident that my academic background, passion for teaching, and commitment to creating a positive and engaging classroom environment make me an ideal fit.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the dynamic learning environment and positively impact the lives of students through the English language.

I have just recently graduated with a First Class Bachelor (Honours) of Arts in History at the University of Oxford and I am currently studying for a Master of Letters in Middle Eastern History at the University of St Andrews. This has gifted me the ability to deal with high-intensity workloads, develop great writing skills, and meet deadlines. I have a passion for education, having educated younger students in literacy and numeracy lessons while at middle school and currently taking up private tutoring positions at U2 Tuition and Superprof. These passions can be expanded through this teaching position, granting me the chance to inspire language learners, bridge cultural gaps, and exchange ideas between myself and students.
Adaptability has been a constant theme throughout my professional and educational journey. As a lifeguard for four years, I honed my ability to remain composed and focused in high-pressure situations, demonstrating adaptability in ensuring the safety and well-being of others. Moreover, my role as Men's captain of Lincoln College Boat Club, alongside the intense final year of my History degree, required effective leadership, time management, organisation, and flexibility in organising a twenty-six hour timetable of rowing outings, coordinating with coaches, other committee members, and other boat clubs, attending regular meetings, fundraising for boat club finances, hiring and interviewing coaches, and writing contracts. This all involved managing a diverse team, fostering collaboration, and navigating challenges to achieve common goals.
I have a genuine passion for language education, shown through my 188-hour TEFL course and a diverse background that includes tutoring and volunteering experiences, all of which equips me for educating, safeguarding, and relationship building with young learners and children. Adaptability is evidenced through working with students of varying abilities, from young students struggling at middle school, to university applicants, to university students, tailoring my approach to meet individual learning needs. Moreover, my voluntary work as a team leader for Lincoln College Vacation Project, where I supervised and cared for children in social care on residential trips, further demonstrates this flexibility, looking after children with disadvantaged backgrounds and some with significant behavioural issues. These experiences not only enriched my ability to communicate effectively, but also heightened my sensitivity to diverse backgrounds and learning styles.
In concurrence with my adaptability, I possess relevant teaching and mentoring experiences. In the summer of 2022, I undertook an 188-hour TEFL qualification, including a seventy-nine-hour methodology course, a level five grammar course, and a principles of teaching course, providing me with relative experience of teaching English in a non-native English speaking country. This has exposed me to the nuances of the English language and made me confident in my ability to assist students in their language acquisition journey. I have provided tutoring at middle school and high school levels, aiding less able students in developing literacy and numeracy skills. Currently, I tutor a student undertaking a BA in History, combing my passion for the subject with personalised and effective teaching approaches. Furthermore, my involvement in aiding university applications through mock interviews, personal statement analysis, and written work sample evaluations demonstrates my commitment to fostering academic and personal growth in young individuals.

I have one year experience teaching English. I taught in Spain and in Ireland. In Spain I was responsible for 10 classes and 72 students aged5-65. I followed the daily lesson plans and conducted my lessons accordingly. I gave and corrected homework every week online. I conducted a test at the end of every chapter for students. I created a “pen-pal” system for students with a school in Italy, which improved motivation and participation in the class.

In Ireland I was responsible for teaching classes to adults. I had a different class every week, and I had to follow the weekly “scheme of work” to adhere to school guidelines. I taught students from over 20 countries and from ages5-65, which allowed me to understand and cater for diverse learning needs. I played guitar and sang songs with students on Fridays.

I am somebody who is always looking to improve as a teacher. I am passionate about teaching and about helping students achieve their goals.

I have spent much of my academic and professional career in counseling and mentoring children who struggle economically, emotionally, mentally, and physically. I have been formally trained as a crisis counselor and am eligible for a counseling license. Currently, I work as a mentor for students in their career planning. As an after-school leader, I was responsible for creating lesson plans and activities that would engage students creatively and promote critical thinking. My dedication and patience have helped me to address and cater to my student’s needs. I found through my experience as a counselor that building rapport and having empathy for my clients not only helps them to feel heard but addresses issues with the intent of resolution. I am a compassionate and hardworking person and thus strive to find methods to connect with students and their families that help build the support they need for their emotional and career development.

I have one year of teaching in Korea already and I am currently located in Daegu. I'm very patient and and can work with all ages. I prefer to make activities fun and like to especially focus on pronunciation.

I graduated in 2018 with a BA General specialising in Psychology and received my TEFL certificate in 2021. I have also just completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Education, specialising in Life Orientation. I am awaiting my certificate.
Because I have been studying since 2015, I do not have any formal teaching experience. I have been tutoring primary, high school and university learners since 2018 in various subjects.

I am a hard worker and truly put a lot of effort in my studies and my work as tutor. I have always wanted to work with children and believe I would make a great teacher because I am compassionate and patient, but also not scared to be a little bit silly if it means I get learners to engage. I believe that every child or person should be given the opportunity to achieve their best, and I could help guide them.

I speak English and Afrikaans, and I can speak French on a B1 level. I have basic computer skills. I am proficient at lesson planning, and I have good problem-solving skills, leadership skills, working well with others and I am adaptable.
