Dear Sir or Madam,
It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my resume in consideration for a position as an English Teacher at a school in South Korea. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Studies with a Minor in Asian Studies from Susquehanna University. I have also earned a CELTA certification through Teaching House. Currently, I am completing my final student teaching requirements in order to obtain a Masters in Elementary Education through Grand Canyon University. I am set to receive my Masters’ Degree in May of 2021. I am a highly motivated, outgoing creative professional, looking to utilize my skills as an Educator in order to promote English Language education and cross-cultural understanding as an English Instructor.
I have experience in teaching Adult ESL through my CELTA, and during my time at Susquehanna University I created lesson plans and conducted weekly English conversation classes for the Japanese Exchange students; holding discussions, working on their grammar, spelling, and pronunciation. My most recent teaching experience is teaching English online through “English First Kids.” Every day I teach students in China; Phonics, Grammar, Reading and Listening Skills. Previously, I taught Young Learners, ages 6-9, for one year in South Korea at the former Jayeon Global Leaders Center. There, I taught children English utilizing the school curriculum, World Fairy Tale Adventure. Every day I would teach English through song, games, art, science, math, acting, and various English activities. In addition, I developed educational materials to supplement each lesson to make it enjoyable, and interesting for each of my students. By April 30, 2021, I will have also completed 180 hours of classroom teaching through my Elementary Education Master’s program.
Through my experience teaching ESL, one of the most effective ways I find when teaching is creating stimulating lessons that students will find in everyday life they can relate to and comprehend. By utilizing audio, visuals, songs, creating games, and providing them with positive reinforcement I have seen my students blossom and excel, actively participate, and use the knowledge they have learned in real-world situations. My goal as an educator is to ensure my students have an open, honest, and supportive classroom experience.
I would enjoy having the opportunity to discuss my background and this position more via a Skype interview. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Michelle Delgado
