Self-introduction:
I am writing to express my interest in the ESL Teacher position with your school. As a former English Tutor for new immigrants to Canada with the Toronto Public Library and current English Teacher in Chengde, China with a B.A. Honors (Specialist in Political Science, Minor in East Asian Studies) from the University of Toronto, I feel that I am an excellent candidate for this position. I have lived in Asia for over 10 years and studied Chinese Culture extensively in University and thus feel I can be a wonderful addition to your staff.
I was showcased on Chengde TV (CCTV) News program on May 31, 2012 for my work with Chengde No. 2 Foreign Languages Middle School and have numerous letters of recommendation for my teaching work.
