Share more about yourself.

I have 5 years experience in teaching British and American curriculum.
CELTA certified (120-hour Teaching English as a Foreign Language [TEFL] certificate issued by Cambridge University) August 15th.
I seek to provide kindness and enrichment to your students by engaging in conversations of decency. Humorous and inspirational chatter lifts my heart causing me to further seek out the proper flow of words that will procure the desired effect. Lively and uplifting conversations always prove to be most gratifying.

My ability to offer positive encouragement and feedback helps to stimulate motivation toward a selected group. I am a compassionate teacher at heart who utilizes patience and keeps focused. Practicing a calm resolve and proper manners helps me develop positive relationships. I am a big fan of making sure the student is competent before moving on with his/her progression.

Naturally, I am an active listener and participator, capable of providing individual and whole group support. I like to project enthusiasm to keep students focused and motivated. I strive to be reliable and hard working in order to achieve the objectives bestowed upon me.
I would like to thank the reader for their time and consideration. I hope my application is successful. I welcome the opportunity to continue my teaching career with a company with such promise.
