Sean, 1년경력있는 미국선생님, 바로시작가능

           I am interested in working full time as an English teacher in South Korea.  I have one full year of experience teaching English at Wonju Sahmyook Middle School in Kangwondo, South Korea during 2010.  I love South Korea and cannot wait to live and teach English there once again.  Since returning to the United States, I have worked as a customer contact representative for CITI bank where I speak daily with U.S. citizens from every corner of the country.  While living in Wonju, I often visited Seoul, and the beaches of Gang-neung. I had always hoped to travel to Busan, but never got the chance. I would value the opportunity to teach at your school.
            My mother was an English major in college, so I was raised to have impeccable grammar, annunciation, and a non-regional dialect.  I have lived in many different parts of the country, and can speak with various regional accents as well as those of other English speaking countries such as Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, and Australia.  I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Philosophy, which demanded an extensive vocabulary and excellent reading comprehension and public speaking skills.
           For nearly six years, I was a daycare provider in the United States, creating lesson plans, schedules, and maintaining tuition files for an average of twenty children, ages 2-5.   During college I worked with Young Life, a non-denominational Christian organization directed toward high school students, providing music for weekly clubs and helping with games and events.  I truly enjoyed working with the young children as well as the teenagers, so I would feel comfortable teaching any age group. 
            I have many qualities that I feel make me an ideal candidate for teaching English in South Korea.  I am open-minded, adventurous, hard working, adaptable, and dependable.  I am athletic, artistic, musically inclined, and I plan to create a fun and productive learning environment.  I am sure that, if given the privilege to teach English at your school, I will be a valuable asset.
