Sosa Middle School

• Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea

• English Language Teacher in Sosa Middle School for Boys and Girls

  • Mar 2012 - Mar 2013

  As a native English language teacher in a middle school classroom in South Korea, the teacher's duty is to prepare an English lesson encorporating different elements of the English language but also to provide to students a cultural insight and awareness into the teacher's own native country. The lesson is delivered in a more informal method than a native Korean teacher in that the opportunity is afforded to students to engage with and explore English as a useable language in which they can understand it's practical application and foster an interest in the language beyond the classroom. Teachers are given time to prepare for English camps for students outside normal classroom hours and autonomy is given to the teacher to prepare lesson plans in line with the corresponding lessons that the Korean teachers deliver but with a creative element to encourage students to participate and communicate through English only. An energetic approach is essential when teaching middle school students, as is an understanding of student's needs and abilities with a disciplinary yet approachable communicative style. It is necessary to think on your feet and adapt to the changing needs of the students. Show less
