Hello, Fun Teaching

Hyein S.

Hello, I have graduated from Hofstra University School of Law, Hempstead, NY, the US, 2025 and University of Pennsylvania School of Law, Philadelphia, PA, the US, 2012. From 2012 to 2022, I have taught students in kindergarden, up to one class at the university. I teach math, economics in high schools and at universities. One of my methods of teaching was to ice breaking the language barriers. For example, I taught in the governmental schools in Thailand. I taught a class, "English conversation." I made a new materials every week. That included projecting Google search results that show barcodes. I made a pair of the students come into the podium and make a conversation regarding what they see in English. Often, it made the class laugh. Another experience was when I firstly projected "Tetris." I input the economic jargons before class and projected the game on the electronic boards. Participation was highly satisfied because the students' learning speed was quicker than paper based. I have taught for ten years. In the early years, I started to tutor in my neighborhood in South Korea. One of my colleagues encouraged me to work in Thailand, as he was hired in Thailand from Korea. I jumped to Thailand and continued to work for about two years. Unlike tutoring, I taught in large sized public schools that included about 1000 students in rural areas. There, I was recruited to international school which was then newly opened in Kyrgyzstan. I have taught in another international schools back in South Korea. International school means even if their native language is not English, language of instruction is English, and the students' goals after graduation is to enter Ivy League Schools in the USA. Because of that, their learning of the economics subject- for example, is not highly different from the freshmen majoring economics at the universities.
