• My interest in the position of Primary/Secondary EAL (English as an Additional Language) teacher stems from a profound passion for language education and the unique challenges and rewards it offers. Having worked extensively in primary education, I have developed a deep appreciation for the foundational role language plays in students' academic and social development. Transitioning to a secondary setting in grade 5 allows me to build on this foundation and support older students in honing their English language skills, which are crucial for their academic success and future opportunities. Furthermore, I am eager to bring my expertise in language acquisition and teaching methodologies to a new cohort of learners, helping them navigate the complexities of academic English and empowering them to achieve their full potential.
• As a primary class teacher, I have honed a diverse set of skills that have been instrumental in creating an engaging and supportive learning environment. My ability to design and implement differentiated instruction has enabled me to cater to the varied needs of my students, ensuring that each child receives the appropriate level of challenge and support. I have also developed strong classroom management techniques, fostering a positive and productive atmosphere where students feel safe and motivated to learn. My effective communication skills have allowed me to build strong relationships with students, parents, and colleagues, facilitating a collaborative and inclusive educational experience.
• My abilities and experiences as a primary class teacher and Grade 5 leader are highly relevant to the position of EAL teacher. My expertise in language acquisition and differentiation will enable me to design and implement effective EAL programs that address the specific needs of primary students. My strong classroom management skills will help create a supportive and inclusive environment where EAL students feel confident and empowered to participate actively in their learning. Moreover, my experience in curriculum coordination and professional development will be invaluable in collaborating with colleagues to enhance the overall EAL program and promote best practices in language instruction.
• I also contribute to the broader school community through leadership in staff development sessions, planning and facilitating assemblies, and mentoring colleagues through professional training workshops within the school. My educational background, including a Master’s in English Philology and a PGCE in Primary Education with distinction from the University of Buckingham, complements my practical teaching experience. Certifications such as TEFL, TESOL, CELT-P, and TKT further reflect my dedication to professional growth and effective teaching strategies.
• Most recently, I earned an IELTS Teacher Training Certificate from ITTI Baku, which affirms my qualification to teach learners across different age groups using a variety of effective and adaptable teaching methodologies.
• Fluent in Azerbaijani, Russian, Turkish, and English, I bring a culturally responsive mindset and the ability to connect with students from diverse backgrounds. I am confident that my skills, passion, and collaborative nature would make me a valuable addition to your team.
• Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your school’s continued success.

I am passionate about creative writing and regularly compose poetry in Azerbaijani, English, and Russian. This trilingual ability allows me to express cultural and emotional depth through diverse linguistic lenses. Over the years, I have actively participated in various educational and social events organized by schools and universities, where I’ve had the opportunity to recite my poems to live audiences. These experiences have not only enriched my communication and presentation skills but also deepened my confidence in public speaking and cultural expression. My involvement in such events reflects my commitment to the arts and my belief in the power of language to connect, inspire, and uplift communities.
