I am writing to express my interest in the position of English teacher at your institution. I bring over eight years of teaching experience from a renowned language institute in my home country, where I had the privilege of working primarily with adult learners. Since immigrating to Germany, I have been eager to continue my teaching journey and share my expertise with new students.
I hold an IELTS certificate with an overall band score of 7.5, including a score of 8.0 in the speaking section. My firsthand experience preparing for and succeeding in the IELTS exam has equipped me with practical strategies and insights that I now pass on to my students—particularly in mastering fluency and coherence in speaking.
My teaching approach is student-centered, communicative, and adaptable. I emphasize building confidence through meaningful interaction, real-life tasks, and continuous encouragement. I tailor my lessons to individual needs, learning styles, and goals—whether it be exam preparation, conversational fluency, or academic writing. I incorporate a mix of methods including:
Task-Based Learning: Engaging students in real-world communication tasks
Communicative Approach: Focusing on interaction and authentic language use
Scaffolded Learning: Providing structured support to gradually build independence
Feedback-Oriented Instruction: Offering constructive, personalized feedback
In the classroom, I strive to create a supportive and inclusive environment where students feel safe to express themselves and take risks. My students have ranged in age from 14 to 60, and I have developed a deep understanding of how different age groups learn and behave. This experience enables me to adjust my communication style, pacing, and materials accordingly.
Beyond language instruction, I aim to inspire learners to believe in their ability to master English. My role extends beyond teaching vocabulary and grammar—I support my students emotionally and motivate them to overcome self-doubt, just as I did for years in my previous position.
I would welcome the opportunity to bring my passion and experience to your team. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of an interview to further discuss how I can contribute to your program.
