I hold an excellent Bachelor’s degree in English Language teaching at

Da Nang University of Foreign Language Studies. Prior to this, I was
a student at Lien Chieu High School where I was awarded best
academic performance in English and social sciences.

During university, I have worked as a teaching assistant at several

well-established English centers in Da Nang and I have gained a
broad understanding of teaching English to young learners and adults
of all ages. Moreover, apart from a great attempt to achieve a wide
range of specialized knowledge through various courses in English
teaching methods, I was also selected to be one of the volunteer
coaches for a teaching program for underprivileged students around
Viet Nam. I could see myself have learned a tremendous experience
of managing a project and creating positive impacts through assisting
students in having better access to the English subject. It has been my
greatest desire to pursue higher education in English teaching
methodology in order to equip myself with a professional background
and further qualifications in English teaching competency and taking
initiatives to better the English learning methods of students in Viet
Nam.

I enclosed further details of my education and qualifications to date in

the hope that you will consider my application for entry. I look
forward to hearing from you.
