Why do you want to teach overseas?:

Learning a second language provides a gateway to the world, opening you up to other cultures and providing a better chance of both studying and working abroad. Therefore, I would find teaching English an incredibly rewarding experience. I would love to be able to share English with my students, creating fun and engaging lessons and watching their improvement. It is also a unique opportunity for cultural exchange, and I am excited by the chance of being able to experience new cultures, customs and (most importantly) food.

Why are you a suitable candidate for teaching overseas?:

During high school I helped younger learners with their reading. I discovered that patience, empathy regarding my students needs and frustrations, and enthusiasm were all vital skills that I was able to develop. These are all skills I believe I could bring to an English teaching position, along with my passion for monitoring students progress and seeing them improve.
