David, 바로 이직 가능하신 경험많은 선생님

Hello! I am a passionate and energetic American teacher with over 6 years of

English teaching experience in Korea. Most of my teaching experience has centered around Elementary age students, and the most recent two years have been devoted to teaching public school students.

As for my teaching philosophy, the methods in which I have employed to foster my students’ language acquisition are often varied, but many revolve around one thing: fun! I want my students having as much fun as possible when they are learning. When the mind is relaxed, learning comes with much less effort. Of course, this doesn’t mean simply playing games all day non-stop (although sometimes games with an educational component can be excellent learning tools). To ensure that the students stay focused and interested in the lesson, a wide variety of fun activities that appeal to different learning types must be implemented. A well planned lesson that moves quickly through different stages can really get a class of students motivated!

I also believe in a holistic approach to learning, and I take very seriously my

responsibility to instill virtue, morality and honesty into each of my students to the best of my ability. I believe that with caring, compassion, kindness and understanding, I can gain the students’ trust and earn the respect needed to become a truly significant mentor to them.
