Teaching:

“Through Motivation and Inspiration to a Vision for life”

With five previous English camp experiences up my sleeves, I believe I have all the crucial skills needed to teach English at the English Village so hereby apply for a native English teaching position.

The ‘Education & Qualification’ and the ‘Work Experience’ section of my resume, especially, indicates and covers the important roles and duties of a native English teacher in general, including the most important - co-teaching system, activity and conversational classes to motivate the students, sense of creativity and freshness, as well as assisting with other areas in need.

My key skills to point out are:

# Co-teaching: Team working ability I received through not only English Camp, but also from my studies all the way to Masters (making music together).

# Activity: The English Camp experiences I gained will be the basis of my teaching (they were all activity based programs, fun and exciting).

# Creative: Being creative is my middle name. As an artist, I always try to be creative, fresh, and interesting for the students to have fun and enjoy learning.

# Assistance: Not so long ago, I had an opportunity not only to teach, but to prepare for an English Camp, assisting my Camp director as an ‘Academic Leader’ in which I came up with the ideas on how to teach the students using the text book provided, as well as recruiting and computing work.

These are only some of the skills relating specifically to English, but there are more, and in detail, in the ‘Skills and Strength’ section of my resume.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,

Kevin (Hyung Joon) Ahn
