Tiffany: United States: Oct 01, 2019

My name is Tifffany Nguyen. I graduated from Newman University with a degree in Psychology. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese. The experiences of working with students and the interest in Korea's cultures have motivated and challenged me to apply for teaching English in Korea.

In high school, I joined Korean Fan Dance club to help at fundraising events for local churches and perform at the annual Asian Festival. Practicing with Hanbok, I was amazed and became curious about the Korean culture, food, and history. Throughout the years, I participated in Big Brother Big Sister program to assist middle school students with homework and after school's activities. In the summer of 2013 to 2015, I worked as a Tutor Counselor for Upward Bound Wichita Preparation program at Wichita State University to provide support and guidance for high school students preparing for college. Since 2016, I became a Vietnamese instructor to help elementary students at church improve and practice the Vietnamese language. The excitement of seeing them learn motivates me to teach better. I enjoy working with children and hope to have an opportunity to contribute my passion as an English teacher in Korea.
