Mariah: United States: Aug 24, 2020

I just graduated in May 2020 with a BA in Critical Languages and International Studies: Korean with a minor in Business Administration from the University of Texas at Arlington, and it's been my goal for many years to live and work in Korea. In 2019, I visited Korea twice, once to study abroad at Yonsei University and again for just 4 days for my birthday because I loved the country so much. Experience-wise, I do not have a TEFL, but I spent 2 years at Southern Methodist University tutoring Chinese-native graduate students learning English to teach their own classes, and studying Secondary Education and taking ESL education courses. I am a strong leader and efficient; I've turned around my current restaurant workplace and take great pride in my eye for spotting weaknesses in a system and moving quickly to remedy them. I have a passion for travel, but more specifically, I'm passionate about traveling around Korea.
