GIỚI THIỆU BẢN THÂN (SELF-INTRODUCTION)

🗣️Mẫu giới thiệu gợi ý:

Hello! My name is Thu Ha. I’m 26 years old and I’m currently living in Ho Chi Minh City. I
graduated from the University of Education, majoring in Korean Language in 2021. I’m now
pursuing a second degree in English Language at Ho Chi Minh City Open University, and I
expect to graduate in 2027.

I’ve had some tutoring experience with young children at home, and I really enjoy helping them
learn English through songs, games, and stories. I’m a patient, cheerful, and creative person,
and I always try to make my lessons fun and interactive.

I believe that learning English at an early age should be joyful and natural, so my goal is to
create a classroom where students feel confident, curious, and excited to use English every day.
Thank you!

1. Why do you want to become an English teacher for young learners?

I love working with children because they are full of energy and curiosity. Teaching English
allows me to use my creativity and help them build a strong foundation for their future learning.
It’s very rewarding to see them grow and enjoy learning.

2. What are your strengths as a teacher?

I’m patient, enthusiastic, and adaptable. I always try to understand each child’s personality and
learning style, so I can adjust my teaching methods to help them learn better.

3. How do you handle a noisy or distracted class?

I would use songs, short games, or attention signals like clapping rhythms to bring their focus
back. I believe young learners respond best when the class is engaging and structured at the
same time.

4. What would you do if a student refuses to participate?

I would gently encourage the student by involving them in simple activities first, like helping
me hold a flashcard or repeat a word together. I’d also give them praise for any small effort to
help build confidence.

5. How do you make your lessons fun and effective?

I often use songs, storytelling, and visuals to make lessons lively. I like to combine English
with movement—like “TPR” (Total Physical Response)—so children can learn by doing, not
just listening.

6. What is your teaching philosophy?

I believe children learn best when they feel happy, safe, and encouraged. My role is not only to
teach English, but also to inspire a love of learning and help them build confidence in
themselves.
