Dear Gloii Job Consulting,
My name’s John Leibold and I’m a young, hard working teacher from New York with over 5 years of experience in the education field. Before moving to South Korea, I taught at a high school tutoring academy in New York for almost 2 years. There, I worked my way up to Assistant Center Director and helped to run the academy. Here is where I rediscovered my affinity for the subjects of English and History.
In high school, I had always exceled in these subjects, receiving university credits for IB English/IB History of the Americas/AP World History and AP US History. I was able to score well on the AP US History exam even without taking the course. After, I continuously used my English and writing skills as a Public Relations major at Boston University, and kept alive my love for history through my private pursuits.
After leaving New York, I settled at my first academy here in Korea where I got the opportunity to teach history at a high level, as well as SAT Reading/Writing and TOEFL, among other subjects. Since leaving that academy, though, my last two and a half years have been spent teaching only elementary English. I’ve been yearning to get back to my roots of teaching high school students, and my planned relocation to Seoul from Busan is a perfect opportunity for me to do so.
My strengths derive from my experience, and skills within the fields of English and History, but also from my drive and personality. I strive to engage students, and make classes interesting. Additionally, my more than 5 years of teaching has given me the experience to handle any classroom situation at any age level. Lastly, I so desire a position teaching upper level material because I myself enjoy being challenged along with the students. When material is more challenging, it invigorates me to do even better as a teacher.
I hope you are able to find a place for me at one of the schools that you work with, and thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
John Leibold
