Something I have always wished to do is to help others. Being able to share knowledge with others and gain a lot in return, excites me. Seeing people being happy and knowing I was the reason for their happiness, is something I always dreamt of.
I have a strong desire for teaching. Being interested in a lot of foreign tv shows, films and music, I knew that languages would be the area I would like to teach in. I recently completed a TEFL 120 hour certificate and would love to put the knowledge I have gained from studying, into practice, gain valuable experience, and become who I have always wished to become.
I have work experiences of helping out in a nursery and a primary school. Those experiences opened my eyes to the world of teaching and gave me a desire to want to teach. Seeing the teachers at the primary school teaching, and seeing the children's joy and happiness about learning new things, made me happy and motivated. I have two nephews who are of primary school age. Asking them about what they have learned at school, and seeing them talk happily and positively about their teachers further adds to the passion and desire that I have to help others, specifically, through teaching.
I have some knowledge of the South Korean culture, by watching tv shows, listening to music, reading websites and forums for around 2 years and as such have been very interested in visiting the country. Being able to not only visit, but to work in South Korea is a once in a lifetime opportunity and to have that opportunity, excites me. I have also recently started learning Korean and would love the opportunity to see the language being used/gain knowledge first-hand.
What I would bring to teaching are my best qualities, kindness, patience, optimism and always having a smile on my face. Being a teacher is not easy, it is something I am prepared to work hard to become, and is something I wish to do for the rest of my life.
