求职信

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am currently doing the dissertation for my master’s degree in TESOL with a specialism in EAP (to be finished November 12th) and it is now time to look for suitable employment. Recent I was teaching at a summer school and have gained valuable insight into my skill set as a teacher. The students I was teaching were Europeans of ages 11-21 and abilities B1-C2. Teaching these students has allowed me to figure out that I am more suited to teaching learners that are of university age and of intermediate to high proficiency. China is a country that I have a great interest in so this is an opportunity that is perfect for me and one that I know I could be successful at. I understand that my lack of experience would cause concern, but only last summer I graduated with a degree from the university of St Andrews in Arabic and Persian (grade: 16.3/20). Thus I know what it means and what it takes to study language at a high level at a top quality university and my experience learning is interchangeable with my teaching ability and my understanding of pedagogical practice. My current TESOL studies, especially studying secondary language acquisition and language teaching methodology, have allowed me to combine my experience learning languages with my philosophy on teaching them to make me an extremely suitable teacher in the contemporary era of education. With regards to curriculum design, I have studied it at university and believe I have a few good ideas that are a mix of the more modern contemporary method and the older fashioned grammar translation. Whilst I have no real world experience of designing a curriculum I’m not afraid of the responsibility and the thought is actually more exciting to me than anything else. It is my intention to eventually do a PhD in both TESOL and comparative literature but in the mean time I believe it necessary to teach at the level that I plan to teach at for the rest of my career; that level being university level. The difficult part is getting the opportunity and belief from an employer that I am just a suitable, if not more suitable, than someone with experience. I have a real drive to be a success in my teaching career. I want my students to remember me as a teacher of the highest calibre for the rest of their lives, I just need an employer to take a chance on me and believe in my ability. If you need any more information about then please email me , I already have the documents required for a visa ready to go.

Kindest regards,

Ihsan S.

Personal Statement:

An articulate, passionate and success driven TESOL graduate looking for teaching vacancies in the tertiary education sector.. With ten years of running and co-running an independent family business I have built up fantastic customer service abilities and a passion for working with people and have successfully implemented this experience into my teaching philosophy. My experience of working in a small business that relies heavily upon me has also given me the ability to work under constant pressure and to solve problems quickly and efficiently, the international customer base I received has also made me very culturally aware and there is no possibility of me being culture shocked wherever an opportunity abroad presents itself.

Work Experience:

Manager and Co-Manager

Jordan Valley Wholefoods, 8 Nicolson Street, Edinburgh

June 2012-June 2022

Jordan Valley Wholefoods is an independent family-run shop in central Edinburgh. It initially started as Middle Eastern food store but eventually developed into a vegan/vegetarian whole foods shop with an emphasis on selling produce from smaller and more independent food producers and manufacturers. My roles included, but weren’t limited, to; management of stock, paying of bills and suppliers, opening and closing, cashing up and business banking, customer service, strategic business and marketing decisions, dealing with health and safety and hiring staff.

Key Achievements and Ideas:

Changing the shop to a completely vegan/vegetarian due to customer feedback and customer dislike for us selling animal products.

Increasing sales from £400-600 a day when I first started (2012-2013) to £800-1000 a day in 2020 (COVID-19 obviously affected sales greatly).

Creating an online shop and delivery service during the pandemic to help boost really poor sales; this idea brought the shop roughly £5000 over 3 months that we wouldn’t have made otherwise.

TEFL Teacher

St Andrews College Language Schools

Edinburgh and Canterbury

July 2022-Present

This is my first teaching job and it is something I have really enjoyed and believe that I’m quite good at. I taught mainly Italian, Spanish and Greek students between the ages of 11-19 and between the ability levels of B1-C2. The focus in this summer language school is to improve the spoken and written fluency of the students and grammar was only a very small part of lessons. I also was responsible for testing and grading the speaking level of students.

亲爱的先生/女士

我目前正在为我的TESOL硕士学位写论文,专业是EAP(将于11月12日完成),现在是时候寻找合适的工作了。最近我在一所暑期学校任教,对我作为教师的技能有了宝贵的认识。我所教的学生是11-21岁的欧洲人,能力为B1-C2。教这些学生让我明白,我更适合教大学年龄段和中高级水平的学习者。中国是一个我非常感兴趣的国家,所以这是一个非常适合我的机会,我知道我可以取得成功。我知道我缺乏经验会引起关注,但就在去年夏天,我从圣安德鲁斯大学的阿拉伯语和波斯语专业毕业(成绩:16.3/20)。因此,我知道在一流大学学习高水平的语言意味着什么,需要什么,我的学习经验与我的教学能力和对教学实践的理解是可以互换的。我目前的TESOL学习,特别是研究中学语言习得和语言教学方法,使我能够将学习语言的经验与我的教学理念结合起来,使我成为当代教育中极为合适的教师。关于课程设计,我在大学里学习过,相信我有一些好的想法,这些想法混合了更现代的当代方法和老式的语法翻译。虽然我没有设计课程的实际经验,但我并不害怕这个责任,而且这个想法对我来说实际上比任何事情都要兴奋。我打算最终攻读TESOL和比较文学的博士学位,但与此同时,我认为有必要在我职业生涯的剩余时间里在我计划的水平上进行教学;这个水平就是大学水平。困难的是如何从雇主那里得到机会,并相信我和有经验的人一样合适,甚至更合适。我有一种真正的动力,希望在我的教学生涯中获得成功。我希望我的学生在他们的余生都能记住我这个最高水平的老师,我只是需要一个雇主给我一个机会,相信我的能力。如果你需要更多的信息,请给我发电子邮件,我已经准备好了签证所需的文件。

最诚挚的问候。

Ihsan S.

工作经验。

经理和联合经理

爱丁堡Nicolson街8号Jordan Valley Wholefoods公司

2012年6月-2022年6月

Jordan Valley Wholefoods是一家位于爱丁堡市中心的独立家庭式商店。它最初是一家中东食品商店,但最终发展成为一家素食/全素食品商店,重点是销售来自更小和更独立的食品生产商和制造商的产品。我的职责包括但不限于:管理库存、支付账单和供应商、开业和关门、兑现和商业银行业务、客户服务、战略性商业和营销决策、处理健康和安全问题以及雇用员工。

主要成就和想法。

由于客户的反馈和客户不喜欢我们销售动物产品,将商店改为完全素食/蔬菜。

将销售额从我刚开始时(2012-2013年)的每天400-600英镑提高到2020年的每天800-1000英镑(COVID-19显然对销售额影响很大)。

在大流行期间,创建了一个网上商店和送货服务,以帮助促进真正糟糕的销售;这个想法在3个月内为商店带来了大约5000英镑,否则我们不会赚到钱。
