ESL Teachers

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,
Elisabeth Kuguru

To whom this may concern,

For the last ten years I have been working in the education sector, both within secondary schools, colleges and with adult learners. For part of this time, I worked as a tutor for Functional skills maths and English. The students were all taking an apprenticeship course and completing the Level 1 or 2 Functional Skills qualification to support their chosen career path. I was part of a group of tutors, centrally based. As the students were all distance learning, the English and maths content was available to them online. When they reached certain stages, we would contact them via email and then via telephone calls for a progress check, to make sure they were understanding the course objectives as they worked through the content. If on the call it become apparent they were not grasping the learning, I would spend time to teach them the aspect they were struggling with, until they had a clearer understanding. After each progress check and teaching session, feedback was provided to the learner on a document where their previous checks were available to them. This allowed the students to see their progress over time. As well as tutoring via calls, I also marked mock exams papers and provided feedback with clear targets to improve their work.

Part of my role whilst tutoring and again now in my current role, is to assess the Speaking, Listening and Communication Assessment for the Functional Skills Level 2 English qualification (SLC). The assessment involves running a session for four to six students on a Zoom meeting call. I guide them through the aspects of the assessment and making sure the students are under exam style conditions, reassuring nervous students, and making sure all the assessment criteria is covered within the session. After the recorded assessment is completed, I assess each student to the exam boards standards and provide detailed feedback upon their individual performance. Each student gains a pass or fail mark. If they have failed, within the feedback I provide clear notes on how to improve their preparation and actions within the assessment to help them gain a pass next time they complete the SLC.

In my current role I work within adult education. Our learners consist of several key groups. This includes adults who wish to improve their job opportunities and therefore are returning to education, children who are home schooled, and adults who have settled in the UK where their first language is not English and require English qualifications to progress their career options. We deliver Functional Skills Level 2 in English and maths, a wide range of GCSE qualifications, and a number of A Level qualifications. It is my responsibility to provide all the learners with the correct information for their exams, reasonable adjustments, advice, and support through the process. In the case of Functional Skills, I register students with the exam board, book exams, forward exam results and organise the certification process. For the GCSE and A-Level qualifications, I need to pass on the correct student details to our exam partners for entry as well as liaise with them as issues arise. I work remotely, organising my own time to ensure the processes run smoothly and all students, and that all receive the required information in a clear, concise, and timely fashion.

My previous roles in school settings consists of taking ownership and the management of the GCSE, A Level and BTEC examinations. I liaise with teaching staff and the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) to complete the registration for all candidates via the school’s information management systems and manage the process regards withdrawals, late entries Etc. Within the last school there was a cohort of around 250 GCSE candidates with a further 200 candidates in Year 13 taking Level 3 qualifications, plus private exam candidates. I was directly responsible for the application of access arrangements, liaising with the tutors and the SENCo teams, special considerations, result processing and the certification process. It was my responsibility to provide all the learners with the correct information for their exam, timetabling, seating plans and JCQ guidelines.

I have worked in the past at a College as a Careers Advisor. Within this role I worked independently as the only Careers Advisor within a small careers team. I was responsible for IAG (information, Advice and Guidance) for both current and potential learners. I supported Level 1 and 2 students, A level and BTEC Level 3 students applying for university and students completing degree courses (HNC and HND level), as well as adult learners going back into education. The support was offered in face-to-face interviews, informal drop-in sessions, group workshops and presentations. I advised learners on the UCAS process (applying for university) and liaised with external partners to ensure an excellent service was delivered. Learners were provided with targets to aid progression. I have also completed a 13-week placement at De Montfort University with their Careers Department for my Postgraduate Diploma. Again, this involved one-to-one interviews, running work shops and presentations to large groups of learners.

I am very self-motivated and enjoy a challenge. I have worked tirelessly to gain a clear understanding of the processes of examinations to complete my role to the highest standards. I have played an active role to get to know the learners and support their needs during the exam season. Offering advice and guidance is also required for candidates who find the examination period stressful. I have kept up to date with my learning and training in such areas as Prevent, Equality and Diversity, Health and Safety and Safeguarding. I have strong communication and interpersonal skills developed through working in the public sector. I have experience of liaising effectively with students, tutorial teams, SLT, and third-party establishments in the form of other schools and sixth forms, JCQ and external awarding bodies. I have worked in teams and individually within the NHS, within the education roles I have had and currently as part of a small team delivering qualifications.

I would love the opportunity to work abroad and to further my skills in becoming an EFL Teacher. I believe that I can make a positive impact, I have the organisation skills and tutoring background required for the role and I would relish the challenge of working in this environment.

Currently I am a private tutor from Varsitytutors where I teach English, French, Italian and Philosophy.
In English I help students for their College Essay Writings, preparation for expositions and editing.
In French and Italian I tutor teaching the language from various levels: from beginner to conversational advanced.
I have been a Phd researcher in Philosophy in cotutelle with the University of Bologna and Québec University of Trois-Rivières where I have wrote articles, summaries and critical analysis to texts; I have held conferences and assisted seminars with discussions.
During my Master's at the University of Bologna I have held academic and public conferences and I have thought at a public Lyceum.
During my Bacherlor's degree at the University of Arizona I have written a book on Philosophy and Economics called “The Effective Thinking of the Body” published both in English and Italian (“Il corpo efficace”), I have presented the book in various cities in Italy; I have been the tutor of accounting, finance and statistics of a community college.

I am a quick learner and I have the passion for studying. I am curious and love sharing with people what I learn.

To whomever this may concern,

Thank you for the chance to work on getting to work in South Korea. I am excited about the prospect of joining a teaching staff in educating young minds and achieving their full potential. I come from the US but I live in Lebanon and looking forward to emigrating.

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been working as an ESL teacher for Grades 2-5 for five years at a private school. While there, I got along very well with the kids and understood how to impart the lesson on them through eliciting, and examples relevant to them.

Afterwards, I attained a TEFL certificate, worth 120 hours of training, and an additional 30 for an Advanced Certification in Teaching Young Learners.

My goal as an educator is motivation and love for the subject, because after all, if you do not love the subject, you cannot learn or teach the subject. I always believed children can and should learn English to develop the social skills necessary for everyday life. I enjoy a 100% acceptance rate of parents who knew me and heard of me from their kids. All of them appreciated my efforts

If you would like to learn more about me or my philosophy of teaching, feel free to email me or contact me at my phone number, 03094902, (Area code 961). Thank you for considering me.

Sincerely,

Adnan Bey
