外教自我简述

To Whom It May Concern,
Please consider me for opportunities within your institution; I have attached my curriculum vitae for your consideration.

I am a dedicated English teacher with many years of ESL experience, and the holder of certifications which have helped me cement my years in teaching. I’m creative, imaginative, and resourceful, and I’m also dependable, reliable, and trustworthy.

Over the years, I have endeavoured to develop and expand my teaching skill knowledge, and I have also looked to strengthen my own weaknesses in teaching by using practical experience and discussing teaching methodologies with colleagues.
I approach my work with a disciplined, but flexible attitude. I am able to summon my experiences and teaching skills necessary to impart knowledge with any age, or professional.

I feel that my English teaching skills have a degree of longevity to them, which will continue to evolve and serve learners of any level to help them improve and attain their English proficiency with confidence… I can also say, that my classes/ learners always get my full attention and moral support in, and outside the classroom. I think it’s important for a teacher to use a variety of methods in the classroom, and allow shared interests and enthusiasm for everyone to engage with, and happily enjoy.

I’ve enjoyed and attained a wealth of experience working alongside many co-teachers and employers; sharing ideas, skills, techniques, strategies, hobbies and interests… I think my teaching background has a depth and relativity to it, which I embrace and continue to nurture. Teaching has been an enlightening experience, that continues to appeal, develop and grow with my enthusiasm.

In applying for this teaching position, I would like to revisit areas of my teaching skills and knowledge, and develop something longer-lasting in another location which interests me greatly.

If you feel my experience and skills meet with your requirements, then please contact me at your earliest convenience. References are available upon request.

Thank you for your time.

Yours faithfully,

Ian Simpson.
