Hi, i'm looking for teachin jobs in Taiwan, Japan, Sth. Korea and possibly Vietnam.
I've just completed my TESOL course and Specialization of Children and am willing to start ASAP.
I am Australian and have plenty of experience to offer you. I enclose my resume as a first step in exploring the possibilities of employment with your company.
My past employment experience have been diverse and have equipped me with a range of skills. My positions have included working at a summer camp with kids in the USA, running kids activities/parties at a swimming pool arena, promoting goods at entertainment venues, bar tending and modelling. Within these positions I have taken on a range of responsibilities including guardianship within a childrenĄ¯s camp program, managing kidĄ¯s activities in a busy environment, and various experiences in public relations, customer service, and major events co-ordination.
I believe that my major area of strength lies in my ability to relate to and work with a variety of different people and see myself as a team-player. Given these personal attributes, my experience has tended to lead me toward a people orientated career.
Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to meeting with you at a personal interview
Sincerely,
Dean Johnson
