Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to express my interest in the teaching positions you have available in South Korea. I am an Irish and UK citizen with a BSc (Hons) in Forensic Psychology and Criminal Justice. I have a 120 hour TEFL qualification, including teaching large classrooms and online.

In my spare time I am a sports coach for my local ladies GAA football team. I am responsible for planning training sessions and coaching the team, most aged between 16 and 32 years old. We have established a successful period over 2 seasons, winning three titles. This experience has helped me learn to plan effectively and think strategically about how to improve the team and the players as individuals.
Furthermore I am currently helping fundraise for a local charity, PIPS Hope and Support who assist in helping prevent and care for those involved with suicide and mental health issues. By designing and coordinating fundraising events I hope to reach our target.

In the position of EFL teacher, I would seek to use my skills and experience to support students to reach their highest potential. With 1+ year of experience of working at home in a customer service based role, I will be able to adapt to the working environment quickly.

I can use my coaching experience to plan simple but effective materials to progress quickly. My time spent in customer service was used to build rapport with customers. I can transfer this skill to communicate with the students in a simple but effective manner.
I believe I would be a successful candidate in this role and hope to be given the chance to contribute.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
