Personal Introduction
I have been teaching for over 13 years, with three of those years being in Korea. I am currently a Professor at Ajou University in Suwon, where I have taught English courses, including writing, speaking, and grammar, for the past five semesters. I also have recently rewritten and executed a new curriculum for Advanced English where we are now including debate skills. I also piloted a new curriculum for a specialized English class designed for nursing students.
I earned my Master of Education degree from University of Phoenix where I specialized in Curriculum and Instruction. I believe every student can learn and we, as educators, need to do our best to reach each and every student to help them be successful.
I would be very honored and excited to teach English to these brilliant high school students! After reviewing my documents, I am certain you will find me to be an excellent candidate. I look forward to your favorable reply.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
