My name is James Reyes, and I am 31 year old Australian currently looking to gain a English teaching position in South Korea.
I have 7 years professional business experience, both for the London music tech start up ROLI from 2016 to 2018, and a renown retailer called Turramurra Music in Sydney from 2011 to 2016. Throughout this time I have gained extensive experience working in various commercial roles where I have demonstrated proficiency in customer service, sales operations and business analysis; communicating high level business information to external customers and executive management.
I also have volunteer teaching experience, having volunteered as a guest speaker for The Smith Family from 2013 to 2016; where I gave presentations and organised learning activities for adolescent students about audio recording and the music industry.
This unique blend of international work experience, communication skills, people skills, technical skills and overall business acumen leads me to believe that I will be a highly valuable and attractive candidate for ESL recruiters and employers.
Personality wise I am adventurous but very hard working, with my friends and family often describing me as 'cool and collected'. I take a pragmatic approach to life, and take extra care to be empathetic in anything I do, often putting others before myself (perhaps also my biggest weakness!). I enjoy travelling and exploring new cultures, basketball and reading non-fiction.
With my professional and academic experience, I believe I have the necessary people and communication skills that will enable me to become a successful ESL teacher. Teaching English represents the next exciting chapter in my career, and will provide me the unique opportunity to work and travel abroad in South Korea as I finish my MBA.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
James Reyes
