I am passionate about education and excited to get to know you and your team. I have my Bachelor's degree from a top tier university in the U.S. as well as my TEFL certification. I am currently working as a private English tutor in the U.S. where I work with one six year old student and one four year old student on English language and reading skills. During my short time in this role both students saw remarkable improvements to their reading skills. My six year old student, who was unable to read at the start of our tutoring sessions, is now reading 20 words per minute despite having dyslexia. I am also working as a private nanny to a one year old child. Each day we work on his acquisition of motor and language skills both of which have drastically improved during my time in this position. While at university, I was also able to work as an Assistant to the Instructor for the Department of Sociology at Washington University in St. Louis. In this role I assisted the instructor in developing lesson plans, assignments and examinations. I was also responsible for evaluating student work, managing the course website, proctoring examinations and providing individual instruction for students who were in need. Through these experiences I was able to develop the organizational, communication and interpersonal skills that will make me an excellent educator in your school. I have experience creating lesson plans and student evaluations which adequately reflect not only their work but also their potential for growth. My rigorous undergraduate education has given me a higher-level knowledge of the English language that will surely benefit my students, while my study and experience of American culture will allow me to provide students the skills they need to assimilate if working in the U.S. is their personal goal. Finally, I have shown my integrity and judgement during my various job experiences that I would love to bring to this position. I have traveled to three of the world’s continents and, therefore, have the ability to respect and thrive in other cultures while learning as much as possible from all of the people around me, especially my students.
