To who it may concern
It’s been a pleasure learning and working here in Korea. I have had the chance to experience many things and also to travel to many places. Best of all I have been able to teach children and adults. Before I came to Korea, I had no teaching experience whatsoever, after having lived here for two years, I am sure it’s the most fun, exciting, and rewarding career that I could possibly pursue.
I pride myself in having an amazing amount of energy and an ability to come up with new and creative ways to motivate my students to learn. I’m not afraid of working in a classroom with adults or children of any level. I can find a curriculum to serve their needs.
I’d love to tell you more about my qualifications, work experience, and why I’d like to be a part of your university teaching staff. Feel free to contact me at the above stated phone number or E-mail address. I’m eagerly awaiting your reply.
