ESL Teachers

Teaching has been something I have gained most of my experience in, helped by my parents being teachers themselves. My main experience has been recently, where I have been teaching english in Thailand, cementing my want to teach and helped me gain confidence in my ability to teach english in another country adapting to a new setting and culture. This was supported by my experience in PGL where I taught children about outdoor activities and instructed them in trapese and jacobs ladder, this gave me the understanding how to make things safe while also making the activities fun for a range of ages from 7-16. Furthermore, these experiences guided me to be someone who can quickly pick up new skills and gave me the initiative to research new methods of engagement in teaching as well as me having fun teaching people how to face their fears, or looking after them as a Group leader. Overall, my experiences have allowed me to open to advice and feedback as I rather learn how to do something better, then stick to something which may work but isn't allowing the students to reach their full potential.

I focus more on each kids needs and learning abilities and try to accomodate each child which sometimes ends up with me spending more time on certain chapter than i should.That is a strength and a weakness because ,my students get to undertand more but sometimes we fall behind with what is expected according to the time frames give.

Hi there,

My name is Erin and I am an enthusiastic teacher wanting to broaden my experience and skills in the teaching world. In the past I have been a tutor, English homeschool teacher and coach which have allowed me to build a good set of skills to prepare me for a position in this field. In life and as a teacher I am patient and organized. I believe in catering to my students and in the importance of adapting to individual needs. I am a good leader, have excellent time management skills and am a good active listener. As well, I am am empathetic, caring and understanding person which I believe can be equally as important as a teacher then in classroom skills. Through these personality traits, experiences and skills I believe I am well suited for a role as an ESL teacher in South Korea and believe I could be very successful if placed in this position.

In this position, I am looking to grow my classroom management skillset and improve my curriculum in order to ensure the success of my students and to help others abroad.

I have recently graduated with a BA History degree from the University of Exeter (in the UK) and I am a friendly, patient, empathetic people person with excellent interpersonal and organisational skills. I believe I possess several qualities that make a good teacher, such as kindness, compassion and the desire to help others, and I would like to become an inspiring and approachable figure for my students, creating a classroom environment that provides them with a safe space to enjoy and develop their learning. I am a motivated, collaborative and creative individual, a good listener and a dedicated learner with proven communication and time management skills. I have completed a 120 hour premier TEFL course and a 30 hour teaching Young Learners course (both online) and I also have some classroom experience — I am currently volunteering at my old primary school as a teaching assistant for the early year groups (ages 4-9) and I enjoy collaborating to create lesson plans, assess work and provide pastoral care.
