Megan: United Kingdom: Nov 15, 2018

My name is Megan Stone and I am 24 years old. I have a BSc in Medical Genetics from Queen Mary University of London and I recently completed a 150 hour TEFL qualification. I have experience working with children and have found it very rewarding.
Over the past year I have been working towards teaching in Korea. This goal has driven not just by my desire to teach but also by an interest in Korean culture. I spend a large amount of my time listening to Korean music, watching Korean shows and watching videos about Korean culture. Teaching in Korea would give me the opportunity to experience a culture that I have been interested in for a long time. Outside of Korean culture my main interests include reading novels, playing board games and escape rooms. I am conscientious and hard working. I have experience of working to deadlines, often on complex projects where attention to detail is important. I am a keen problem solver and work well in teams. I am considered a compassionate person who gets on well with my colleagues. I have had a passion for teaching and working with children from a young age: during my time at Hobart High School I spent a week on a work experience placement as a teaching assistant, and I also volunteered my lunch breaks to act as a reading mentor for younger students.
